I think Harmony is more reasonable.
As spec says, if Charset.forName("UnicodeBig") throws
.UnsupportedCharsetException then no support for the named charset is
available in this instance of the Java virtual machine. Then how can we
get
new String(b, "UnicodeBig") without throwing UnsupportedCharsetException
on
the same jvm? The spec for String(byte[] bytes,String charsetName) also
says
if the named charset is not supported, UnsupportedCharsetException should
be
thrown out.
UNICODEBIG is a java alias for UTF-16BE. I think we'd better support such
mapping in String and follow RI.
