Hello.
Below is a simple patch for JDK 7 to fix a minor javadoc problem in java.lang.Clas. The javadoc for methods getGenericSuperclass and getGenericInterfaces make @throws reference to two exceptions in the java.lang.reflect package; these exceptions don't get rendered as links in the HTML output because they are in a different package. The fix is to add the package qualification; importing the exceptions would have worked too, but the imports are not needed by the code in java.lang.Class.
Thanks,
-Joe
