Hi Daniel,

The fix looks good.   It might be good to clarify the spec in the case
when the given resourceBundleName parameter is null?   Perhaps in the
@params resourceBundleName of the getLogger(String, String) method.

    * @param   resourceBundleName  name of ResourceBundle to be used for
localizing
    *                          messages for this logger. May be
<CODE>null</CODE> if none of
    *                          the messages require localization.

perhaps clarify that null only if the logger does not have a
localization resource bundle set.

Thanks Lance and Mandy!

I have updated the webrev as per your suggestion:

Hi,

Please find below a fix for:

8005899: Logger.getLogger(name, null) should not allow to reset
         a non-null resource bundle

The issue here is that whereas in JDK 7,
    Logger.getLogger("foo", null);
will throw an IllegalArgumentException if "foo" has a non null
bundle name, JDK 8 will simply ignore the 'null' parameter and
behave as
    Logger.getLogger("foo");

The fix below restores the IllegalArgumentException in JDK 8.
