Hi all, I've created a webrev [1] to address the problem reported in bug 7094995, where the ClearStaleZipFileInputStreams testcase leaves a lingering GC inducing thread running after the test ends (when run in agentvm mode), as spotted by Alan and mentioned in another conversation [2].
It modifies the testcase so the main thread tells the GcInducingThread to shut down, and waits for it to do so (using Thread.join()) before exiting. I've also converted the testcase's use of ZipFile, ZipOutputStream & FileOutputStream to use ARM (for greater clarity). Please let me know your thoughts on this change, Thanks, Neil [1] http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~ngmr/7094995/webrev.00/ [2] http://mail.openjdk.java.net/pipermail/core-libs-dev/2011-November/008251.html -- Unless stated above: IBM email: neil_richards at uk.ibm.com IBM United Kingdom Limited - Registered in England and Wales with number 741598.
