Hi
The following issue was been bothering me for a while:
When you have an annotation with a value that is an array of classes
[1] and one of those classes can't be loaded with the class loader of
defining class of the element the annotation is defined on you get a
ArrayStoreException (stack trace below).
See JDK-7183985 [1].
I see, JDK 9 if we're lucky.

I would like to take a moment to lament the fact that you no longer
offer fastdebug builds and no longer include sources for non-API
classes. Things like this were much easier to debug in the good old
JDK 6 days. This is double annoying when your marketing honchos are
always touting increased developer productivity.
I'm curious what you mean by "no longer include source for non-API
classes". If you mean src.zip then I thought it only ever contained the
classes for the API classes.
At least the initial JDK 6 releases included sources for com.sun and
sunw. Ok, wouldn't have helped in this case.
Cheers
