Hi
We would like to migrate a number of the IBM charsets (which don't need to
be in java.base) to a modular charset provider.
However, as written today our charset classes rely on sun.nio.cs classes
and definitions, which are no longer visible. For example:
sun.nio.cs.HistoricallyNamedCharset;
sun.nio.cs.CharsetMapping.UNMAPPABLE_DECODING;
sun.nio.cs.CharsetMapping.UNMAPPABLE_ENCODING;
sun.nio.cs.ArrayDecoder;
sun.nio.cs.ArrayEncoder;
sun.nio.cs.Surrogate.Parser;
sun.nio.cs.SingleByte.Decoder;
sun.nio.cs.ext.DoubleByte.Decoder;
sun.nio.cs.SingleByteDecoder;
sun.nio.cs.SingleByteEncoder;
Are there any alternatives to these classes in the new module system or an
alternative approach to creating charsets?
Can you use jdk.charsets as an example? You'll see that java.base
exports these packages to the service provider module.
