Ice 3.6.3 regression: slice2java generates invalid code

rleigh

Hi folks,

I'm seeing what looks like a possible regression in the 3.6.3 release. All the errors are of this nature:

error: cannot find symbol
            __cb.__error(ex);
                ^
  symbol:   method __error(Error)
  location: variable xxxxxxxx

I have attached a sample ice file to demonstrate the problem; running though slice2java should give you the code which fails to build. This code was working with Ice 3.6.2 and earlier.

Reproduced on: Windows/VC14, MacOS X 10.12 and CentOS7, all with Ice 3.6.3.

Regards,
Roger

Hi,

It looks like you're compiling against a 3.6.2 (or earlier) Ice run time JAR file. If you're recompiling your Slice files with the 3.6.3 translator, you also need to use the 3.6.3 run time.

Regards,
Mark

Ah, that might well be the case. I'll double-check that, thanks.

Yes, I've rebuilt against the updated dependencies and this appears to fix everything. Sorry for bothering you, and thanks again.
