Paulex, the test fails on my machine!

Seems RI returns 2*length instead of length.

For failure details, please refer to [1].



I consider this is RI's bug, because
no way to have such different behavior in this clear test. So I think we
should follow spec.



I also suggest to report this to Sun JDK bug db as well, because I think
it is not trivial. And I don't believe Sun will at last decide, instead
to fix this, to modify the document as "the behavior is implementation
dependent if the source channel has fewer than count bytes remaining..."
;-)


Maybe it will be fixed as: "For FileChannel, the channel will be resized to
the postion+count bytes if  position+count is greater than current file
channel size. " :) Just kidding.

As our compatiblity guideline, we should comply with spec.
But will the behaviour of RI  be considered as illogical? Personally I
think RI's behaviour breaks spec, and is only a bit(very limited)  logical.

Any suggestions/comments?

Thanks.
