Question

abstract method foo(E) in wtf.is.going.on cannot be accessed directly super.foo(e)

I get that error when compiling my project with ANT using the auto generated ANT build file from ANDROID.

When i compile the same project in ECLIPSE, i do not get any issues. What is happening?

---

Here is what is going on:

package wtf.is.going.on;
public interface DAOMutator<E> {

    public void foo(E e);

}

---

package wtf.is.going.on;
public class DAOBImpl<E extends DAO> implements DAOMutator<E> {

    @Override
    public void foo(DAO dao) {
        //do some stuff
    }

}

---

package wtf.is.going.on.more;
public class VMBImpl <E extends someDao> extends DAOBImpl<E> {

    @Override
    public void foo(E e) {
    super.foo(e); // ERROR OCCURS HERE
    }

}

---

Exact error output:

[javac] MYPATH\src\wtf\is\going\on\more\VMBImpl.java:6: abstract method foo(E) in wtf.is.going.on.DAOMutator cannot be accessed directly
[javac]             super.foo(e);

Answer 1

If you switch

public void foo(DAO dao)

in DAOBImpl to

public void foo(E dao)

Does it work properly?
