Wow, How many examples do you have? ;-)
As ChoiceFormat is a "format engine", it's impossible to list all the
exceptional cases.
IMHO, maybe we could 1) *guess* the rules behind RI's strange behavior
by adding more test cases. 2) try our best to implement the rules of
RI. 3) And then, leave this issue as bug-driven, that is, if there are
user applications fail due to the difference between RI and Harmony,
we fix our code.
Does it make sense? Thanks a lot.
Best regards,
Richard

One more example of strange RI behaviour

import java.text.*;
public class Test {
static void test(String pattern) {
System.err.print("[" + pattern + "] ");
try {
System.err.println(new ChoiceFormat(pattern).toPattern());
} catch (Exception e) {
System.err.println(e);
}
}
public static void main(String[] args) {
test("|||");
test("2#a|||");
test("1<||||");
}
}

RI

[2#a|||] 2.0#a|2.0#|2.0#
[1<||||] 1.0<|1.0<|1.0<|1.0<
