Hello all, This revision for the fix for 8015081 has the following test changes:
Removal of the static byte buffers for serialized data in lieu of a more dynamic approach. A stripped down version of Subject in its own package is now being compiled alongside SubjectNullTests.java. This version of Subject allows the creation and serialization of Subjects with null elements in the principals SecureSet. Immediately following serialization, this special Subject's class designation is overwritten to be javax.security.auth.Subject. When deserialization occurs, the correct (JDK 9) version of Subject will be used and null element checks will take place.
Thanks go to Weijun Wang for this testing approach. http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~weijun/8015081/webrev.07 --Jamil
