Hi Claes, Peter, Vladimir, all,

I really support Peter's latest proposal: it reduces the amounts of code, 
synchronisation, and complication, and actually addresses the problem at hand 
too. What's more to wish for? :-)

I propose to adopt this solution: 
http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~plevart/jdk9-dev/BMH.race/webrev.03/

Not sure how to proceed. Peter's name should be on the changeset. As he's a 
Committer, I'm fine if he pushes it once it's signed off by a Reviewer.

Thanks,

Hi Michael, Vladimir, Claes, all,

When I try the following example:

public class Test {

    static class Failure {
        static final int value;
        static {
            if (true) {
                throw new InternalError("Failure");
            }
            value = 123;
        }
    }

    public static void main(String[] args) {
        try {
            Field valueField = Failure.class.getDeclaredField("value");
            int value = valueField.getInt(null);
            System.out.println("Got value: " + value);
        } catch (Throwable e) {
            System.out.println("\n1st exception:\n");
            e.printStackTrace(System.out);
        }

        try {
            Field valueField = Failure.class.getDeclaredField("value");
            int value = valueField.getInt(null);
            System.out.println("Got value: " + value);
        } catch (Throwable e) {
            System.out.println("\n2nd exception:\n");
            e.printStackTrace(System.out);
        }
    }
}


...I get the following output:


1st exception:

java.lang.InternalError: Failure
    at Test$Failure.<clinit>(Test.java:12)
    at sun.misc.Unsafe.ensureClassInitialized(Native Method)
at sun.reflect.UnsafeFieldAccessorFactory.newFieldAccessor(UnsafeFieldAccessorFactory.java:43) at sun.reflect.ReflectionFactory.newFieldAccessor(ReflectionFactory.java:142)
    at java.lang.reflect.Field.acquireFieldAccessor(Field.java:1088)
    at java.lang.reflect.Field.getFieldAccessor(Field.java:1069)
    at java.lang.reflect.Field.getInt(Field.java:574)
    at Test.main(Test.java:21)

2nd exception:

java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: Could not initialize class Test$Failure
    at sun.misc.Unsafe.ensureClassInitialized(Native Method)
at sun.reflect.UnsafeFieldAccessorFactory.newFieldAccessor(UnsafeFieldAccessorFactory.java:43) at sun.reflect.ReflectionFactory.newFieldAccessor(ReflectionFactory.java:142)
    at java.lang.reflect.Field.acquireFieldAccessor(Field.java:1088)
    at java.lang.reflect.Field.getFieldAccessor(Field.java:1069)
    at java.lang.reflect.Field.getInt(Field.java:574)
    at Test.main(Test.java:30)


The 1st attempt that also tries to initialize the class throws InternalError directly from <clinit>, but the 2nd attempt is a kind of LinkageError, which is a different type. So in order for the test(s) to pass, we have to consider this secondary exception too as a non-critical exception:

http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~plevart/jdk9-dev/BMH.race/webrev.04/

I think this is better then trying to disguise NoClassDefFoundError into a VirtualMachineError just in order to "fool" the test(s). This is how VM operates and in general, Error(s) thrown by VM should be propagated up to the top and reported as-is.

Regards, Peter

Ok, here it is:

I just moved CACHE registration into SpeciesData.initForBootstrap() method, so 
no new method is needed. Note that patched source now contains the same number 
of lines as original. How does the jigsaw HelloWorld score now?

Thanks, this looks really good to me. I verified that #classes are the same and 
it even looks like footprint improves ever so slightly.
