peer code compilation problem

[Borislav]

Hi Cipri,

I just noticed the peer code with the Java 5 SDK (same codebase
compiles fine with eclipse!). I get the following:

peer-compile:
[javac] Compiling 62 source files to C:\work\hg\core\build
[javac] C:\work\hg\core\src\java\org\hypergraphdb\peer\workflow

Hi Boris,

  Sorry for the late response, I was away on a short vacation.

  I tried compiling from the command line in Java 5 SDK, but I get no errors. Can you please give me a more precise description of your environment.

  The line of code the yield the errors tries to make a cast between AbstractActivity<?> and a the following class:

public class ProposalConversation extends Conversation<ProposalConversation.State>

Conversation is defined as

public class Conversation<StateType> extends AbstractActivity<StateType>

the thing that might be causing the error is that ProposalConversation.State is defined as an enum in the ProposalConversation class (maybe your version of the jdk has a problem with that):

public enum State {Started, Proposed, Accepted, Rejected, Confirmed, Disconfirmed, Done};
