Kristian Waagan updated DERBY-2760:
-----------------------------------

    Attachment: derby-2760-3a-extra_tests.diff

'derby-2760-3a-extra_tests.diff' adds a few more tests for UTF8Util.

Of special interest is that using UTF8Util to skip characters from an invalid 
byte sequence with UTF-8 encoding will/might succeed, depending on the encoding 
error and the character boundaries. See the test 
'testSkippingInvalidEncodingWorks' for an example.

I do not know if this will ever be a problem, because I assume the data has 
been verified at an earlier stage. If this is not the case, several problems 
can arise, such as incorrect positioning and a false positive for incorrect 
encoding (if you end up inside a correctly encoded multi byte character after 
skipping).

Patch ready for review.

>   - skipInternal() should return an instance of a private inner class instead 
> of an array
