Hi, Please find below a fix for what I believe is a test bug. I plan to push this in JDK 9 dev.
https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8030187 This seems to be a very intermittent failure. It looks as if a logger held in a local variable can be arbitrarily garbage collected if that variable is no longer used. To prevent arbitrary garbage collection of such loggers, the fix makes sure to use the variable again at the end of the test. In the event that my analysis were wrong, I have also added some debug traces that should help if this test fails again in similar situations. http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~dfuchs/webrev_8030187/webrev.00/ best regards, -- daniel
