Oops!  I also meant to take the test off of the ProblemList:

Hi,

Please review this change to how the platform encoding is determined on Mac when loading agents.

Webrev: http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~bchristi/8072130/webrev.01.cleanned/

Additional details in the bug report:
https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8072130

Some background:
Since JDK 8, if MacOS reports an encoding of US-ASCII, but no encoding hints are provided in environment variables (LANG, LC_ALL, LC_CTYPE), the JDK uses UTF-8 instead; see JDK-8011194[1].  (This allowed apps launched via double-clicked jar to display files correctly for non-ASCII languages).

A similar encoding tweak was not made in the code path used for loading agents.

This can come into play when an agent jar includes a Boot-Class-Path entry containing non-ASCII characters.  iconv() gets setup to convert UTF-8 to US-ASCII[2], but will fail when encountering extended characters in the entry, so the path in question is not added to the bootclasspath[3].  This will likely lead to a ClassNotFoundException.

When java/lang/instrument/BootClassPath/BootClassPathTest.sh is run on a   Mac with no values for LANG/LC_ALL/LC_CTYPE, Setup.java sees a default   encoding of UTF-8 (per 8011194) and creates Agent.jar with a Boot-Class-Path that includes non-ASCII characters.  But the Boot-Class-Path entry gets skipped when loading Agent.jar, so the AgentSupport class can't be found.

I propose this be fixed by adding the same UTF-8 encoding adjustment on MacOS from 8011194 to the agent loading code path.

An additional note:
This bug was challenging to reproduce, in large part because the 8011194 code checks for an absent env var (getenv() == null), but not for env vars with a blank/empty string value (getenv() == ""), so the test environment had to be setup in a specific way (e.g. 'unset LANG' vs 'export LANG=') to reproduce this bug.  So I'd like to update the code to also check for empty string.  I also added a couple small improvements to the test.

Thanks!
