The native compiler works but gij does not so changing component to libgcj which is 
where gij is part of.

The JDK java interpreter does accept the code gcj
generates.  However, javac generates an explicit
package-private settor method.  That is what gcj
should do as well.  So, this is probably two bugs:
one in libgcj's access checking, and another in
gcj itself.  The latter is, I believe, a duplicate.

This bug also affects GCJ 3.3.2 on GNU/Linux and 3.3.3 on Cygwin.

The class org.w3c.tidy.ParserImpl in the JTidy tool is another test case.

------- Comment #7 from tromey at gcc dot gnu dot org  2007-01-09 20:44 -------
All gcj front end bugs have been fixed by the gcj-eclipse branch merge.
I'm mass-closing the affected PRs.
If you believe one of these was closed in error, please reopen it
with a note explaining why.
Thanks.

I still see the problem with gcj (GCC) 4.1.2 20061018 (prerelease) (SUSE
Linux). 

It makes problems also with OpenOffice.org when the internally used hsqldb is
compiled and used with gcj/gij.

Note that it is really a bug. The java documentation says at
http://java.sun.com/docs/books/tutorial/java/javaOO/nested.html:
--- cut ---
A nested class is a member of its enclosing class and, as such, has access to
other members of the enclosing class, even if they are declared private.
--- cut ---

There is another definition in the "Java Language Specification" at
http://java.sun.com/docs/books/jls/third_edition/html/names.html#6.6.1:
--- cut ---
Otherwise, if the member or constructor is declared private, then access is
permitted if and only if it occurs within the body of the top level class
(§7.6) that encloses the declaration of the member or constructor.
--- cut ---

Note that also C++ works this way. The OPOSITE problem is even mentioned in the
"Frequently reported non-bugs" at http://gcc.gnu.org/bugs.html#nonbugs_cxx:
--- cut ---
Nested classes can access private members and types of the containing class.

    Defect report 45 clarifies that nested classes are members of the class
they are nested in, and so are granted access to private members of that class.
--- cut ---
