Hello, I'd like to submit a patch for JDK-8220231. I'm not a Committer, so I'll need someone to sponsor this change.
The proposed approach is used without known issues in OpenJDK-based JetBrains Runtime for almost three years now. I've mentioned it previously on this mailing list ( https://mail.openjdk.java.net/pipermail/2d-dev/2017-August/008497.html). The change has been refactored as compared to the version mentioned above (the logic has been moved to SunLayoutEngine), and includes the removal of font tables caching (JDK-8186317). The latter, I believe, becomes redundant with this fix. Issue: https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8220231 Webrev: http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~dbatrak/8220231/webrev.00/ Best regards, Dmitry Batrak
