Re: Java parser cannot handle foo[].class

[Ben Elliston]

       public class s
       {
         public static void main (String[] args)
         {
   	System.out.println (String[].class);
         }
       }

I was able to reproduce the problem with the program shown above, but
haven't had time to investigate further.

Java parser cannot handle foo[].class

[Richard Hussong]

If a Java source contains the construct "foo[].class", where "foo" is
a class name, the parser gets an "abnormal program termination", with
text

	Error: put_symbol argument #3 must not be empty [...]

Just thought you might like to know.  I'm afraid I don't have time
right now to investigate further or try to fix the bug.

Can you provide a more complete test case, that can be fed straight into the
parser?  I'm not very fluent in Java.
