Sanne caught that one recently but your bisect helped a lot. It seems that we are a bit optimistic with out generic Russian dolls
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/2431334/java-generics-what-is-the-compilers-issue-here-no-unique-maximal-instance /** * Creates the proxy for an annotation using Hibernate Commons Annotations * @param annotation the AnnotationDescriptor * @return the proxy */ private static <T extends Annotation> T createAnnotation(AnnotationDescriptor annotation) { //This is a filthy workaround for the Annotations proxy generation, //which is using the ContextClassLoader to define the proxy classes //(not working fine in modular environments when Search is used by //other services such as CapeDwarf). //See HSEARCH-1084 //use annotation's own classloader try { return AnnotationFactory.create( annotation, annotation.type().getClassLoader() ); } catch ( Exception e ) { //first try, but we have another trick } //Use TCCL return org.hibernate.annotations.common.annotationfactory.AnnotationFactory.create( annotation ); } Basically the compiler cannot guarantee that T in the outer method is the same as T in the AnnotationFactory.create methods. Unfortunately it yells in some strange language. It looks like the compiler is a bit more stupid on Windows for some obscure reason. Could you try 1.6.0_31 (the latest)?
