ADDITIONAL SYSTEM INFORMATION :
Win 10,
JDK 11, JDK 18

A DESCRIPTION OF THE PROBLEM :
Getting an "duplicate class definition" error when having a static method that returns a super type of the the surrounding type. The method does not need to be called.

reported in https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=578077#c5

STEPS TO FOLLOW TO REPRODUCE THE PROBLEM :

run this with Vm Argument -XX:StartFlightRecording:filename=recording.jfr,dumponexit=true -XX:FlightRecorderOptions=stackdepth=-1


EXPECTED VERSUS ACTUAL BEHAVIOR :
EXPECTED -
no warning, no exception
ACTUAL -

---------- BEGIN SOURCE ----------

class AbstractJfrEvent extends jdk.jfr.Event {

CUSTOMER SUBMITTED WORKAROUND :
remove "createEvent()" from class.
