Martin, Alan, Joe,
Would you please help review the change (as a workaround) for this
"intermittently" problem?
https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8080803
http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~sherman/8080803
It appears the trigger might be that ByteBuffer.get(byte[]) fails to get
the bytes from the buffer "intermittently".
Interestingly this one is always reproducible on my local linux build
(very old os), in which I have to update
couple hotspot headfile to make the build going recently. I filed the
bug#8080904 to let the vm guy take a look.
Meanwhile the proposed change here is just to "optimized" the ISO2022
code a little to simple workaround
this issue. I hope this can make the "intermittent failure" go away in
our nightly build. If have time, we definitely
should re-visit the implementation of these ISO2022 :-)
Thanks,
-Sherman
