JDK 11.0.2 compilation fails with javac NPE on anonymous parameterized class type inference
Bug (JDK-8212586) has been already submitted and fixed in version 12.
Minimal, verifiable example:
public static void main(String[] args) {
new Bug<>(){};
}
static class Bug<T> {
Bug() {
test(new ParameterizedTypeReference<>(){});
}
void test(ParameterizedTypeReference<T> typeReference) {
}
}
Some Details.
Fix has been also backported to JDK 11 - https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8220578.
Available starting JDK 11.0.4.
I Had the same error,you need to create a function :
ParameterizedTypeReference<Object> createParameterizedTypeReference(){ return new ParameterizedTypeReference<>(){}; }
and call it :
ResponseEntity<Object> test = restTemplate.exchange(
"https://example.com",
HttpMethod.GET,
new HttpEntity<>(headers),
createParameterizedTypeReference() {
});
