Hi Roger,

Yes, I considered that too, but did not change the behavior and just to maintain the field consistent. I agree that it would not be observable via the public Calendar API, but some apps (like how the submitter found it) may be doing something using reflection.

Hi Naoto,

The spec for clone doesn't say whether the clone should share or not share the TimeZone.
Did you consider that if sharedZone was true , *not* to clone the TimeZone?
It would still get cloned when requested from getTimeZone().

This does seem somewhat safer not to change the cloning behavior but I don't think the behavior would be observable.

The current code and test is fine, except for reducing the potential for sharing the TimeZone.

Thanks, Roger

Hello,

Please review the fix to the following issue:

https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8210142

The proposed fix is located at:

http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~naoto/8210142/webrev.00/

The fix is a simple one line change, which is to make the sharedZone field consistent with the cloned TimeZone instance in Calendar.clone().
