[CodeCover-devel] Compiler Error: Cannot reference a field before it is defined

[rob.h <ro...@gm...>]

When building CodeCover with Eclipse 3.4.2, the following error is
reported by the Eclipse compiler on the enum "Type" in class
org.codecover.eclipse.views.CoverageView [1].

This is due to bug #263877 of Eclipse [2].

There is a patch for Eclipse 3.4 available, which just needs to be
extracted in the "dropins" directory in your Eclipse installation
directory [3], [4].
