7u40 Request for approval for CR 8012044 - Give more information about self-suppression from Throwable.addSuppressed

Mon, 06 May 2013 21:59:36 -0700 

Hello,

I'd like to backport the changes for
8012044 - Give more information about self-suppression from Throwable.addSuppressed 
    http://bugs.sun.com/view_bug.do?bug_id=8012044

from JDK 8 to the 7 update train. In JDK 8, the changeset is at

    http://hg.openjdk.java.net/jdk8/tl/jdk/rev/4da1d43f5843
and the patch of this changeset applies cleanly to the 7 update repo (other than the copyright date on Throwable). 

See core-libs-dev threads about this change:
"Throwable.addSuppressed error conditions -- use the exception as the cause?" 
http://mail.openjdk.java.net/pipermail/core-libs-dev/2013-April/015796.html

Review thread:
http://mail.openjdk.java.net/pipermail/core-libs-dev/2013-April/015947.html

Thanks,

-Joe
