Hi Kelly,
I have filed a bug whose internal review id is 2421470. It was filed
with "Product/Category" being "JDK/JRE" and "Subcategory" being
"Problems common to more than one tool". I am wondering since it only
happens when building OpenJDK, is it eligible for a Java bug?
In addition, do you have any idea on how to force java programs such
as idlj to use ascii?
Best regards,
Frank

Hi Volker,
Yes, I think so. The comment is pasted below.
/**

It's in Chinese, and it says when translated to English that "Generated by IDL-to-Java
compiler(portable) version 3.2 and the date. You can also view a "normal" English one under
openjdk folder "corba\gensrc\" after performing a build.
An relevant question is that in my env (export LANG=C), java output without any
param always gives me Chinese help. Even though we may find out which env var
or value jvm reads on startup, it could be impossible to change them. Any
insight or idea on the mechanism is welcome.
Best regards,
Frank

This is just a wild guess, but perhaps idlj uses the value of some environment variables
(or values derived from them - check System.getProperties()) which contain non ASCII
characters? This could be something like PATH, HOSTNAME, USER. What exact characters are
there in the comment and what kind of comment is it? How does this comment look on a
"normal" system?

Hi Kelly
I investigated how local specific characters get into generated
sources in corba module. Those classes are generated by following
command idlj
c:/openjdk/dep/jdk1.7.0_02/bin/idlj -J-XX:-PrintVMOptions
-J-XX:+UnlockDiagnosticVMOptions -J-XX:-LogVMOutput -J-Xmx512m
-J-Xms512m -J-XX:PermSize=32m -J-XX:MaxPermSize=160m -td
"c:/openjdk/ojdk8_ojdk_739/../ojdk8_ojdk_739-debug/corba/gensrc"
-i "../../../../src/share/classes/org/omg/PortableServer" -i
"../../../../src/share/classes/org/omg/PortableInterceptor" -corba
3.0 -fall -pkgPrefix PortableServer org.omg
../../../../src/share/classes/org/omg/PortableServer/poa.idl
I checked idlj help but there is no encoding specific option. My
locale environment vars are listed below
$ locale
LANG=C
LC_CTYPE="C"
LC_NUMERIC="C"
LC_TIME="C"
LC_COLLATE="C"
LC_MONETARY="C"
LC_MESSAGES="C"
LC_ALL=
Could you give me any hint about how to force idlj to generate
ascii chars only?
Best regards,
Frank

In the past, the "-encoding ascii" was important, all the
reasons I can't completely list right now. But it is important
that regardless of the locale, the bits created during the
build should be the same for everyone.
The definition of "same" might not be bit for bit, but by
minimizing the potential differences we have a fighting
chance of measuring "the same".
But my question is, how are any locale specific characters
getting into generated sources? That's what we need to find out.
Removing "-encoding ascii" is probably not the right answer,
and if it is, will require some debate.

Hi
I have an encoding problem when building openjdk 8 on my
Windows 7. My windows is Chinese environment but I
exported LANG=C in cygwin bash before building. The issue
is that in module corba and jdk, some java classes are
generated by program. They happen to contain Chinese
characters in comment. However, they are compiled with
explicit option "-encoding ascii" in makefile. This
results in unrecognizable chars complained by javac
(Error: encoding ascii unmappable chars) . I have a patch
that removes all unnecessary "-encoding ascii" but I am
not sure all its side effect. Shall I submit a bug?
Best regards,
Frank
