Shall we follow RI on this odd behavior in harmony?
My opinion is that we should not. But if 1.5 has deserialization issue
it won't be possible to make it read SubMap, serialized by harmony,
correctly. And I think this it's not a problem for us.

Hi, thank you for your information.
I slightly modified my second test case and run it on JDK6-beta.
public void test_HeadMap_Serializable() throws Exception {
// same as before
*assertNotNull(((SortedMap)outputObject).entrySet()); // This line
assertNull previously.*
assertNotNull(((SortedMap)outputObject).keySet());
assertNotNull(((SortedMap)outputObject).values());
*assertEquals(outputObject, headMap); // This line is previously
commented out, and now passes on JDK6.*
}
IMO, this shows that Inner classes of TreeMap on JDK5 do not have proper
serialization behavior. Shall we follow RI on this odd behavior in harmony?
Personally, I am against this.
Best regards
