Problem summary
Error 'java.lang.ClassFormatError' is thrown by the JVM for a

identifier is done using Character.isJavaIdentifierPart(ch).This
API returns true for the identifier which adheres to the JVM
specification for naming convention of the class,methods or
fields. However an error in the class verifier results in the
above exception being thrown.
Problem conclusion
This defect will be fixed in:
5.0.0 SR12
.
The JVM class verifier code has been fixed to correctly classify
the characters in identifiers according to whether they are
valid in class names, method names, or fields.
.
