Possible bug, so newbie I'm not even sure ;)

[Andres Riancho]

List,

I think I found a bug, but I'm such a java2python AND java newbie
that I'm not even sure:

dz0@sock3t:/tmp/Pixy/src/at/ac/tuwien/infosys/www/pixy$ j2py -i
XSSAnalysis.java -o XSSAnalysis.py
syntax error: unexpected symbol at line 38 (column 12): "List"
*** exception while parsing:
<AST>:41:9:
dz0@sock3t:/tmp/Pixy/src/at/ac/tuwien/infosys/www/pixy$

The offending code is:

"""
// if all these nodes belong to variables that are initially
harmless,
// everything is OK; otherwise, we have a vulnerability
public List<Integer> detectVulns() {

System.out.println();
"""

And my versions are:

$ python -V
Python 2.5.2

$ dpkg -l antlr
||/ Name
Version Description
+++-=================================-
=================================-
==================================================================================
ii antlr
2.7.6-10 language tool for constructing
recognizers, compilers

The full source code of what I'm trying to translate is available
at http://pixybox.seclab.tuwien.ac.at/pixy/dist/pixy_3_03.zip

Is this a bug?

Cheers,

That's not a bug, but I wish it was.

That's java 5 syntax. No support for that yet in j2py.

Things are starting to get complicated with this port of pixy .... hmmm...

Cheers,
