I tried to dump the methods' symbolic names. e.g.

<SystemAppCL,Ldacapo/parser/Config$OutputFile;>.hasLines()Z

The strange thing is that I also got some similar names. e.g.

<SystemAppCL,Ldacapo/parser/Config$OutputFile;,<init>,(Ldacapo/parser/Config;Ljava/lang/String;)V>
<SystemAppCL,Ldacapo/parser/Config$OutputFile;>.<init>(Ldacapo/parser/Config;Ljava/lang/String;)V

Are these two represent the same method? Are they both legal? Why they are different?

Thanks!

How did you dump these names? Can you provide the source code for these classes (or create a small example for which you can)? – Jeffrey Bosboom Jul 04 '14 at 03:27
