Robert Muir updated LUCENE-2630:
--------------------------------
Attachment: LUCENE-2630.patch
Here's the patch for TestCharacterUtils.
it should expect generic IIOBE according to the javadocs contract.
I opened HARMONY-6648 for the non-bug difference.
> make the build more friendly to apache harmony

> as part of improved testing, i thought it would be a good idea to make the
> build (ant test) more friendly
> to working under apache harmony.
> i'm not suggesting we de-optimize code for sun jvms or anything crazy like
> that, only use it as a tool.
> for example:
> * bugs in tests/code: for example i found a test that expected ArrayIOOBE
> when really the javadoc contract for the method is just IOOBE... it just
> happens to
> pass always on sun jvm because thats the implementation it always throws.
> * better reproduction of bugs: for example [2 months out of the
> year|http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unusual_software_bug#Phase_of_the_Moon_bug]
> it seems TestQueryParser fails with thai locale in a difficult-to-reproduce
> way.
> but i *always* get similar failures like this with harmony for this test
> class.
> * better stability and portability: we should try (if reasonable) to avoid
> depending
> upon internal details. the same kinds of things that fail in harmony might
> suddenly
> fail in a future sun jdk. because its such a different impl, it brings out
> a lot of interesting stuff.
> at the moment there are currently a lot of failures, I think a lot might be
> caused by this: http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.comp.java.harmony.devel/39484
