Hello,
I am not sure if this is the correct mailing list to send this mail to.
Please apologize any inconvenience caused.
The JDK 7 documentation of class java.nio.charset.spi.CharsetProvider
states the following:
[...]
Charset providers are looked up via the current thread's context class
loader.
[...]
Looking at method 'private static Iterator providers()' of class
'java.nio.charset.Charset', the above documentation seems incorrect
since that method uses the system class loader.
ClassLoader cl = ClassLoader.getSystemClassLoader();
ServiceLoader<CharsetProvider> sl =
ServiceLoader.load(CharsetProvider.class, cl);
Is this intended ?
This is a long standing issue (going back to 1.4), we should remove this
from the javadoc.
