Bug 152678 ParameterDialog cannot be build if compiler level is 5.0
Not sure if source is trying to be 1.5 supportive, however....using todays source head. If I try to build the source using the 1.5 JDK the class org.eclipse.birt.report.designer.ui.dialogs.ParameterDialog; has he following compiler errors: - The Method compareTo(BigDecimal) in the type BigDecimal is not applicable for the arguments (Object) - The Method compareTo(Double) in the type Double is not applicable for the arguments (Object) - The Method compareTo(Integer) in the type Integer is not applicable for the arguments (Object) if you look at method private boolean isEqual( String value1, String value2 ) There is the following comparisons that the compiler does not like. if ( v1 instanceof Double && v2 instanceof Double ) { return ( (Double) v1 ).compareTo( v2 ) == 0; } if ( v1 instanceof BigDecimal && v2 instanceof BigDecimal ) { return ( (BigDecimal) v1 ).compareTo( v2 ) == 0; } if ( v1 instanceof Integer && v2 instanceof Integer ) { return ( (Integer) v1 ).compareTo( v2 ) == 0; }
