It looks like it is a bug of RI.

Also, I changed one line to:
      byte [] data = serialBlob.getBytes(2, 10);
and got another exception on RI:
Exception in thread "Main Thread" java.lang.ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException: 8

At the same time
      byte [] data = serialBlob.getBytes(1, 10);
works fine on RI, which seems to be illogical.

Hi folks,
SerialBlob spec points out that getBytes(long position, int length) should
throw SerialException if the given starting position is out of bounds. But
RI also throws SerialException when the position is in the bound of the
array in some other cases. Consider following code:

public void testGetBytesJI1() throws Exception {
        byte[] buf = { 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8 };
        SerialBlob serialBlob = new SerialBlob(buf);
        byte [] data = serialBlob.getBytes(2, 1);
        assertEquals(1, data.length);
        assertEquals(2, data[0]);
   }

IMO, the starting position 2 and the length 1 are both valid. But RI throws
SerialException with message "Invalid arguments: position cannot be less
that 1". Is it a bug of RI? Or did I missing something? Any suggestions?
Thanks in advance!
