Bugzilla Bug 149098

Problem: I cannot emerge xerces with the jikes use flag enabled. Xerces
compiles perfectly with the jikes use flag disabled.

# emerge xerces

   [xjavac]    644.                     throw new
DOMException(DOMException.TYPE_MISMATCH_ERR, msg);
   [xjavac]

   [xjavac] *** Semantic Error: No accessible field named "TYPE_MISMATCH_ERR"
was found in type "org.w3c.dom.DOMException".

etc.

I have migrated to the new java setup.

# java-config-1 -L
[sun-jdk-1.4.2.12] "Sun JDK 1.4.2.12" (/etc/env.d/java/20sun-jdk-1.4.2.12) *
# java-config-2 -L
The following VMs are available for generation-2:
*)      Sun JDK 1.4.2.12 [sun-jdk-1.4]
2)      Sun JDK 1.5.0.08 [sun-jdk-1.5]

Can't reproduce it, I blame it on jikes' weirdness. Can you try xerces-2.7.1-r1
using jikes as gen-2 compiler to see if it fails too?

Unfortunately I do not know how to tell portage to use a gen-2 compiler.

JAVA_PKG_FORCE_COMPILER=jikes emerge =xerces-2.7.1-r1

Since xerces-2.7.1-r1 is no longer in the tree I used xerces-2.7.1-r2.

Disabled jikes support in 2.7.1. Newer versions should be working. Thanks for
reporting!
