FULL PRODUCT VERSION :

ADDITIONAL OS VERSION INFORMATION :

A DESCRIPTION OF THE PROBLEM :
The following code is compiled fine.

package a;

public class A {
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        new C().test();
    }

    private interface B {
        private void test() {
        }
    }

    static class C implements B {
        void test() {
            B.super.test();
        }
    }
}

But when you try to run this code, you will receive exception:

Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoSuchFieldError: super
at a.A$C.test(A.java:15)
at a.A.main(A.java:5)

Apparently this code should not be compiled, as B.super.test(); construction is improper?


STEPS TO FOLLOW TO REPRODUCE THE PROBLEM :
Take code from description and compile it: javac a/A.java.
After that run the code:

bash-3.2$ java a.A
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoSuchFieldError: super
at a.A$C.test(A.java:15)
at a.A.main(A.java:5)

EXPECTED VERSUS ACTUAL BEHAVIOR :
EXPECTED -
The code should not be compiled.
ACTUAL -
The code compiled fine.

ERROR MESSAGES/STACK TRACES THAT OCCUR :
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoSuchFieldError: super
at a.A$C.test(A.java:15)
at a.A.main(A.java:5)

REPRODUCIBILITY :
This bug can be reproduced always.
