hello,

we're facing a 'strange compiler error' when switching to latest 3.2.0.Beta1

Failure executing javac, but could not parse the error:
An exception has occurred in the compiler (1.6.0_17). Please file a bug at the Java Developer Connection (http://java.sun.com/webapps/bugreport) after checking the Bug Parade for duplicates. Include
your program and the following diagnostic in your report. Thank you.
com.sun.tools.javac.code.Symbol$CompletionFailure: class file for org.hibernate.annotations.SortType not found

Hi,

never seen this before. What OS are you running on? Which JDK are you using? provide as much information as possible about your environment that might help to narrow down your problem.

Have you made sure that it is Hibernate Search which causes the problem? You could try to run this (provided you are using maven):

You will get a list of archetypes presented. Select the Hibernate Search one and specify the group, artifactId and version values for your test project. After that the maven archetype plugin will create a sample Hibernate Search project for you. just run:

This way you will be able to tell if the problem is really with Hibernate Search alone.

hello

thanx for the feedback.
the test didn't run but probably gave an indication of the issue.
i'm seeing that 3.2.0.Beta1 is dependent on hibernate core 3.5.0-Beta-2 while i was trying with 3.4.0.
probably that's a possible cause.

thanx
