Hi,
The class src/solaris/classes/sun/print/AttributeClass.java overrides
Object.equals() but not Object.hashCode() because of which
we get a warning everytime we build jdk8/tl. Here is a suggestion to
remove the warning:
http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~khazra/8017109/webrev.00/
<http://cr.openjdk.java.net/%7Ekhazra/8017109/webrev.00/>
I was also wondering whether the implementation of the equals() method
is correct, and whether it is instead meant to be:
diff -r eb1a3c50a2a9 src/solaris/classes/sun/print/AttributeClass.java

return

obj instanceof AttributeClass &&

What is the preferable way of getting this change into the code - I can
push via tl. What are the tests I would need to run?
If this discussion belongs elsewhere, let me know.
Thanks for your help,
