[ jEdit-devel ] BeanShell and Parameterized Classes

[Jesse P. <jp...@al...>]

Hello,

Can BeanShell not work with (the raw version of) types that have parameters?

I have an interface and a class:

public interface IdentifierProvider
    extends Iterable<String>

public class CTagsFileProvider implements IdentifierProvider, Serializable

and in a BeanShell script, I try to cast an instance of 
CTagsFileProvider to IdentifierProvider, but I get

Target exception: java.lang.ClassCastException: Cannot cast 
com.illengineer.jcc.CTagsFileProvider to com.illengineer.j
cc.IdentifierProvider

        at bsh.UtilTargetError.toEvalError(UtilTargetError.java:70)
        at bsh.UtilEvalError.toEvalError(UtilEvalError.java:90)
        at bsh.BSHCastExpression.eval(BSHCastExpression.java:68)
        at bsh.Interpreter.eval(Interpreter.java:645)
        at bsh.Interpreter.eval(Interpreter.java:739)
        at bsh.Interpreter.eval(Interpreter.java:728)

even though CTagsFileProvider implements that interface, and the case 
can be performed in Java without a hitch.


Thanks,
Jesse
