Description Justin Clark 2005-03-10 11:07:57 UTC

The file db-3.2.9/java/src/com/sleepycat/db/DbEnv.java uses 'enum' as a variable name. As of java 1.5 enum is a keyword. The patch simply renames the variable.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.Install a Java 1.5 sdk

Java guys. What do you think I should do. I know this fix is correct in formal sense, but what is the stance of the java team about it?
