Andy Dufilie commented on FLEX-34983:
-------------------------------------
mapBackToJS was just a guess. I'm not familiar with the code base, but it was
the only place I was able to find which did the type of string replacement I
observed.
Both flexjs/js/bin/compc and flexjs/js/bin/mxmlc produce the same result.
> Variables get annotated incorrectly when the class name contains "String"

> Key: FLEX-34983
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLEX-34983
> Project: Apache Flex
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Falcon, FlexJS
> Affects Versions: Apache FlexJS 0.5.0
> Reporter: Andy Dufilie
> Assignee: Alex Harui
> Priority: Minor
>
> If you create a class with "String" in the name, the type gets annotated
> incorrectly.
> For example, create a class named "LinkableString" and it becomes
> "Linkablestring" in the annotation, causing warnings as follows:
> {code}
> WARNING: C:\Weave\WeaveJS\bin\js-debug\WeaveTest.js:74: WARNING - Bad type
> annotation. Unknown type weavejs.core.Linkablestring
> var /** @type {weavejs.core.Linkablestring} */ test = new
> weavejs.core.LinkableString();
> {code}
> I believe the offending code is in mapBackToJS() in BaseReference.java:
> https://github.com/apache/flex-falcon/blob/808fd1601a0228883b06d061d0f6bd101888284e/compiler.jx/src/org/apache/flex/compiler/internal/codegen/externals/reference/BaseReference.java#L201
