I had a really strange compilation problem after updating my xith-tk from cvs:
An exception has occurred in the compiler (1.5.0_08). 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.

luckily I found this equivalent problem. It seems to be a known compiler bug fixed in mustang and was caused by an improper placed Annotation in DaeExporter line 1244:
for ( @SuppressWarnings("unused")
final TransformNode viewNode : viewNodes )
it is stated in th the bug report, that @SuppressWarnings is not allowed inside a statement (the for-loop), but the compiler should not crash this way.
So THAT was a tough one :o. It’s really great if your compiler is so helpful :-
I hope this helps someone with the same problem…
Have you guys ever encountered this or are you using mustang?
