Paulex, What I read in the bug description, this is our impl which throws AssertionError, seemingly regardless of assertion status ?
In general I agree, we need not strive to be assrtion-compatible. -- Alexey 2006/12/5, Paulex Yang <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>:
This incompatibility is obviously caused by RI's assert usage, whether or not we need to be "assert compatible" with RI? assert on/off in Java is runtime decided, so that it's still possible that user application run JRE in assert enable mode. And if we do want to "assert compatible", we need to run our test suites in both mode. IMHO, "assert compatibility" is not necessary, because it is not likely to cause user application fail, it seems crazy to expect assert error in the application logic. And I don't believe there are JCK test cases against assert, but I'm open to other's comments.
