    Attachment: DERBY-902_021306.stat
                DERBY-902_021306_2.diff

I ran derbyall with jdk15 with insane jars with the changes of this patch, 
and in addition I needed it to ensure I had correctly fixed DERBY-903.

I would appreciate feedback on this patch.

changed:
-               String errSeparator = new String(b);
+               String errSeparator = new String(b, "US-ASCII");
 
which then needed the method to throw or handle an 
UnsupportedEncodingException, I made the
method throw it.


> Remove use of String(byte[]) and String(byte[], int, int) constructors in 
> engine leading to non-portable behaviour

> These constructors use the Java default platform encoding to convert the 
> bytes to a String, this typically leads to bugs on platforms with different 
> encodings.
> Replace with code using fixed conversion, or alternative mechanisms. 
> If the call is required its use should be commented as to why it is required.

> I generated this list using the Java search in eclipse for references to the 
> constructors
> String(byte[])
> String(byte[],int,int) - no occurrrences in java/engine
