Types$$TypeError when using inherited method from Java with repeated parameters

[scabug]

Hello,

I tried to compile a piece of scala code using 2.7.5 (and 2.7.6); and I had a compiler crash:
It happens when I extend a java class which defines a method having a repeated parameter.
When I call it from the scala subclass it works, unless I call it inside a for statement or a partial function.

Let me know if I'm doing something wrong.
Thanks a lot for your work

== Step to reproduce: ==

• edit test/java/TestJava.java

package test.java;

public class TestJava {
        protected String repeatParam(String ... items) {
          return "nothing";
        }
}

• edit test/scalac/TestScalac.scala

package test.scalac

import test.java.TestJava

class Foo extends TestJava {

   // THIS METHOD YIELDS TO CRASH
   def foomethod : Option[String] => Unit = {
      case None =>  
        val path = repeatParam("s","a","b","c")
        ()
      case Some(error) =>
        ()
   }

  // THIS IS OK
  def foomethod2 : String = repeatParam("s","a");

  // THIS IS OK
  val aVal = repeatParam("1","2","3")

  // THIS YIELDS TO CRASH
  def foomethod3 {
    for (a <- 1 to 4 ;
         anotherVal = repeatParam("1","2","3"))
    yield anotherVal
  }
}

== Here is the scalac (ant task) output ==
Notice that TestJava class is already compiled at that time.

@paulp said:
I am kicking this back to reviewer for reassessment since I believe zouev is gone. Ticket #3426 was a duplicate.

[scabug]

@dragos said:
You can work around the bug if you make the Java method public. If that's not possible, you may add a Scala method (defined directly inside that class) forwarding to 'repeatedParam' and call that one instead.

Lukas, would you like to have a look at it? It's my code, but I won't have a chance at fixing anything of this sort for many months to come.

@lrytz said:
works in current trunk.

@paulp said:
My current trunk still explodes. And, not to be Buzzkill Testy Guy, but even were it fixed it shouldn't be closed until a test case is checked in.

@lrytz said:
uh, thanks paul. i removed the package declaration in the java source, which makes it pass..

[scabug]

@lrytz said:
(In r22416) close #2413. maybe there's better place to this conversion, therefore review by odersky.

[scabug]

Paul Brauner (paul brauner) said:
I had the same bug and this was resolved by scala 2.8-rc something until scala-2.8 but now this is broken again.

[scabug]

@lrytz said:
it's not fixed in 2.8.0, only in the trunk / the nightlies. the fix will be in 2.8.1.
