[jira] [Created] (BCEL-306) Why is this string.replace line needed in generic.ObjectType constructor?

---------------------------------

             Summary: Why is this string.replace line needed in generic.ObjectType constructor?
                 Key: BCEL-306
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/BCEL-306
             Project: Commons BCEL
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Main
    Affects Versions: 6.2, 6.1, 6.0, 5.2, 5.1, 5.0
            Reporter: Sagar Tewari


Why is this line present in the ObjectType constructor:
[https://github.com/apache/commons-bcel/blob/5e2febea94ae56db7fd0729e808625f7be1f6a32/src/main/java/org/apache/bcel/generic/ObjectType.java#L45]
 
The javadoc states that this constructor expects a fully qualified name(which do not contain '/'s). Is it some legacy stuff which is no longer needed since all the tests pass if I replace this line with this one:
this.class_name = class_name;
