--- Comment #1 from Axel Howind <a...@dua3.com> --- Created attachment 36318 --> https://bz.apache.org/bugzilla/attachment.cgi?id=36318&action=edit Fix for compilation on JDK 11 without tweaking locale properties I have now tested with Zulu, Oracle's OpenJDK build and Oracle JDK. Test fails with all three different JDKs in version 11.0.1. The exact version is actually 11.0.1+13 for all three JDKs. The test code already accounts for different characters to be used in chinese. It is done using this check: /** * Depending on the JRE version, the provider setting and the locale, a different result * is expected and selected via an index */ private int localeIndex(Locale locale) { final String provider = System.getProperty("java.locale.providers"); return jreVersion < 12 || !locale.equals (Locale.CHINESE) || (provider != null && provider.startsWith("JRE")) ? 0 : 1; } I have also seen in the Jenkins [logs](https://builds.apache.org/view/P/view/POI/job/POI-DSL-1.11/19/consoleFull) that the locale providers are overridden: -Djava.locale.providers=JRE,CLDR Now consider the description of the [LocaleServiceProvider](https://docs.oracle.com/en/java/javase/11/docs/api/java.base/java/util/spi/LocaleServiceProvider.html): > Java Runtime Environment provides the following four locale providers: > > "CLDR": A provider based on Unicode Consortium's CLDR Project. > "COMPAT": represents the locale sensitive services that is compatible with > the prior JDK releases up to JDK8 (same as JDK8's "JRE"). > "SPI": represents the locale sensitive services implementing the subclasses > of this LocaleServiceProvider class. > "HOST": A provider that reflects the user's custom settings in the underlying > operating system. This provider may not be available, depending on the Java > Runtime Environment implementation. > "JRE": represents a synonym to "COMPAT". This name is deprecated and will be > removed in the future release of JDK. What happens is that the Jenkins build explicitly tells (by means of -D...) the LocaleProvider to be consistent with prior Java versions (i.e. before JDK 8). This patch should fix JDK 11 builds (and hopefully not break any others) without setting `java.locale.providers`. **Note:** Depending on current build options, the `-Djava.locale.providers=...`has to be removed from the build. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@poi.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@poi.apache.org
