Hibernate 3.5.4 doesn't build with OpenJDK 6b18-1.8.2 or greater ---------------------------------------------------------------- Key: HHH-5789 URL: http://opensource.atlassian.com/projects/hibernate/browse/HHH-5789 Project: Hibernate Core Issue Type: Bug Components: core Affects Versions: 3.5.4, 3.6.0.Beta1, 3.6.0.Beta2, 3.5.5, 3.6.0.Beta3, 3.6.0.Beta4, 3.5.6, 3.6.0.CR1, 3.6.0.CR2, 3.6.0 Environment: Linux fiona 2.6.32-5-amd64 #1 SMP Thu Nov 25 18:02:11 UTC 2010 x86_64 GNU/Linux java version "1.6.0_18" OpenJDK Runtime Environment (IcedTea6 1.8.3) (6b18-1.8.3-2) OpenJDK 64-Bit Server VM (build 16.0-b13, mixed mode) Reporter: Miguel Landaeta Attachments: 0004-strict-type-inference-with-generics-code.patch, hibernate3_3.5.4.Final.buildlog Hi, In the BTS of Debian it was reported[1] that Hibernate 3.5.4 can not be built with recent versions of OpenJDK6. The compilation fails with a message similar to this one: [ERROR] BUILD FAILURE [INFO] ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [INFO] Compilation failure /build/user-libhibernate3-java_3.5.4.Final-4-amd64-X7BsRy/libhibernate3-java-3.5.4.Final/entitymanager/src/main/java/org/hibernate/ejb/criteria/path/AbstractPathImpl.java:[194,39] invalid inferred types for M; inferred type does not conform to declared bound(s) inferred: java.util.Map<K,V> bound(s): java.util.Map<capture#829 of ?,capture#332 of ?> This is due to more strict type inference checks in OpenJDK6 1.8.2 and greater. Debian is going to release a stable version of their distribution soon with OpenJDK6 1.8.3, so it's required to be able to compile Hibernate with that JDK version. Any help to fix this problem is very welcomed. The full build log is attached. Thanks, 1. http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=606295
