Peter Ent created FLEX-33918:
--------------------------------

             Summary: Unknown type error generated for known type
                 Key: FLEX-33918
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLEX-33918
             Project: Apache Flex
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: FalconJX
         Environment: Mac OS X
            Reporter: Peter Ent


import org.apache.flex.html.staticControls.List;

…

for(var i:int=0; i < columns.length; i++) {

    var column:List = columns[i];

I get this error while compiling:

/Users/pent/Documents/Apache Flex/DataGridXcompile/bin/js-debug/org/apache/flex/html/staticControls/beads/DataGridView.js:121: WARNING - Bad type annotation. Unknown type List

    var /** @type {List} */ column = this.columns[i];

                   ^

What's funny about this last error is that I also have this ActionScript code which does not produce an error:


for(var i:int=0; i < pm.columnLabels.length; i++) {

    var column:List = new SimpleList();

The JavaScript code generated for these statements is:
for (var /** @type {number} */ i = 0; i < pm.get_columnLabels().length; i++) {
    var /** @type {org.apache.flex.html.staticControls.List} */ column = new org.apache.flex.html.staticControls.SimpleList();
