There are jdk tests that have dependency on sun.misc.DoubleConsts and sun.misc.FloatConsts.
This fix is to remove above internal API dependency from the tests.

In addition to Joe's comment, DoubleUtils and FloatUtils are
needed by test/java/lang/Math/Tests.java and a few other math
tests.  It may be better to include them in test/java/lang/Math
rather than in the testlibrary.

Thank you Mandy and Joe for your comments!

To confirm, DoubleUtils and FloatUtils contain *only* constants that are not defined in java.lang.{Float, Double}, and tests fixed by using constants from 1) java.lang.{Float, Double} if constants defined there; 2) DoubleUtils and FloatUtils only for additional constants that are not in java.lang.{Float, Double}.

DoubleUtils and FloatUtils now moved to test/java/lang/Math, the updated patch:

http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~ewang/amylu/JDK-8042003/webrev.01/


The uses of DoubleUtils and FloatUtils now look okay, but I have some additional comments on the contents of those types. First, I think these type are better named "DoubleConsts" and "FloatConsts" since they only have constants defined in them. As such, they should be derived works of the sun.misc.{FloatConsts, DoubleConsts} types:

* Inherit starting copyright dates of those types
* Use "float" and "double" to talk about the types rather than "Float" and "Double" * Include the private constructor and static initializer to check for correctness conditions as in the sun.misc types

Changing the simple names of the new types to match the old types will also have the benefit of greatly reducing the size of the patch.

(In the new files, more recent javadoc conventions should be follow {@code foo} rather than <code>foo</code>, etc.)

Thanks,

-Joe
