CLDR Locale data is now used by default in JDK 9. If you need to remain
with JDK 8 behaviour you can use the 'java.locale.providers' system
property. See

Hey folks,
I have this simple test that I run with java 9.0.1 as well as java 1.8_131
DateFormatSymbols s = new DateFormatSymbols(Locale.GERMAN);
System.out.println(Arrays.toString(s.getShortWeekdays()));
on Java 9 it prints this:
[, So., Mo., Di., Mi., Do., Fr., Sa.]
while on Java 1.8 and below it prints:
[, So, Mo, Di, Mi, Do, Fr, Sa]
This is also true for Month in the German local. I didn't test
anything else but I wonder if this is expected or if it is considered
a bug. I also raised an issue against JodaTime which relies on this
here [1]. I ran into this a while ago on elasticsearch here [2] but
just picked it up. I wish I had done this earlier!
thanks,
simon
