------- Additional Comments From tromey at gcc dot gnu dot org 2005-06-01 21:12 ------- One example of a failure is the test case in PR 21722. In this PR we generate this bytecode in A.class:
0: ldc #9=<String "foo"> 2: astore_1 3: getstatic #15=<Field b.B.FOO java.lang.String> 6: aload_1 7: invokevirtual #21=<Method java.lang.String.equals (java.lang.Object)boolean> However, as B.FOO is a compile-time constant, we should not have a 'getstatic' here. -- http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=1259
