Yesterday, Bhavesh reported that while working on type annotations
support for javadoc, he noted that when he put a type annotation on a
wildcard bound (which may have been Object), it ended up on *all*
instances of Object, and thus showed up throughout the javadoc for the
class. We suspect this is due to the type annotation being stored in the
wrong place. Bhavesh will be following up with detailed evidence, but in
the meantime, have you seen anything like this?
Would it help to to have a type/symbol printer that pretty prints the
type/symbol showing all annotations? That way we can (a) take javadoc
out of the loop here, (b) write test cases more easily/
