Description Branislav Náter 2016-04-05 09:22:57 UTC
Description of problem:
During testing hamcrest, I wanted to try examples from hamcrest-demo subpackage. It seems that all three examples for junit3 requires classes that are not present in hamcrest 1.1. Namely org.hamcrest.MatcherAssert EasyMock2Matchers and JMock1Matchers

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
hamcrest-1.1-9.5.el6
hamcrest-demo-1.1-9.5.el6

How reproducible:
always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. try to compile example:
javac -cp /usr/share/java/hamcrest/all.jar:/usr/share/java/junit.jar /usr/share/hamcrest-1.1/hamcrest-examples/src/main/java/org/hamcrest/examples/junit3/ExampleWithAssertThat.java

Actual results:
ExampleWithAssertThat.java:4: error: cannot find symbol
import static org.hamcrest.MatcherAssert.*;
                          ^
  symbol:   class MatcherAssert
  location: package org.hamcrest

Expected results:
Success

Additional info:
Classes are present in hamcrest 1.3 http://hamcrest.org/JavaHamcrest/javadoc/1.3/

Comment 2 Mikolaj Izdebski 2016-07-22 05:39:51 UTC
Red Hat Enterprise Linux version 6 is entering the Production 2 phase of its lifetime and this bug doesn't meet the criteria for it, i.e. only high severity issues will be fixed. Please see https://access.redhat.com/support/policy/updates/errata/ for further information.
