Hi Could you please verify following fix which update core filename patterns. Some hosts are configured to compress core files during core dump. In such cases tests should throw skipped exception instead of failing reading compressed cores. Fixing all tests to support unpacking core.pid.gz files is going to be fixed in separate RFE.
Verified that test pass if plain core is generated and skipped in other case. webrev: http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~lmesnik/8230881/webrev.00/ <http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~lmesnik/8230881/webrev.00/> bug: https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8230881 <https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8230881> Leonid
