Question

I have a generic interface:

public interface DAO<T>
{
    public T get(long id);
    public Set<T> getAll();
    public void delete(T object); 
    public void update(T object);
    public void create(T object);
}

and an implementing class:

public class FooDAO implements DAO<Foo>
{
    ... implementations here ...
}

Why does eclipse tell me I have the following error:

“The type DAO is not generic; it cannot be parameterized with arguments “.

This doesn’t show up in the Problems tab and everything builds and runs just fine, but I still see the error in the editor window. What’s going on here?

Answer 1

As of 3/21/2011, I’ve tried all of the answers to no effect. The project runs fine, so I’m chalking this up to a bug in eclipse.
