Where did I say that I was seeing silent truncation? My question is about the specification.
I want to know if I should write code that defends against silent truncation. I should be writing code based on the specification, not what I observe in a test program on a particular platform. I’m pleased that you believe an exception should be thrown, but is that behavior mandated in the specification and tested by the JCK?
