You just point out a serious issue ;-) . The RI is just a concept, in
fact we have many RIs, Sun's JDK, BEA's JDK, even different versions,
Sun JDK 1.5.0, 1.5.0.04, 1.5.0.06...(even more in future I expects), and
on different platforms(win32, linux32, still even more in future)...In
fact sometimes they have different behavior themselves, it is very
reasonable that 1.5.06 fix some bugs of 1.5.0, so that some different
exceptions thrown(more reasonable IAE instead of NPE, for example), or
more seriously, different results returned... Samples are available upon
request:).
Actually, there only is one RI for any given spec, and in this case, I
guess we judge it to be the latest version of a spec that comes from
Sun? (The question isn't if it comes from Sun - as the spec lead, they
supply the RI - but rather what version...)
