Gary D. Gregory commented on LANG-744:
--------------------------------------
That would be a minimum but I still do not like the design of {{catch
(java.security.AccessControlException e)}}.
If we do that it means that we should go through all [lang] (and [commons])
static initializers to possibly add this block. It is also inconsistent with
methods that we do not even know may throw ACE? In one place we catch it, in
others we do not. Not great. I need to think about this some more. Crazy day
here...

> Project: Commons Lang
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: lang.*
> Affects Versions: 3.0.1
> Environment: Google App Engine
> Reporter: Clément Denis
> Fix For: 3.0.2
>
>
> In the static initializer of org.apache.commons.lang3.StringUtils, there is
> an attempt to load the class sun.text.Normalizer.
> Such a class is prohibited on Google App Engine, and the static intializer
> throws a java.security.AccessControlException.
> {code}
> Caused by: java.security.AccessControlException: access denied
> (java.lang.RuntimePermission accessClassInPackage.sun.text)
> at
> java.security.AccessControlContext.checkPermission(AccessControlContext.java:374)
> at
> java.security.AccessController.checkPermission(AccessController.java:546)
> at java.lang.SecurityManager.checkPermission(SecurityManager.java:532)
> at
> com.google.appengine.tools.development.DevAppServerFactory$CustomSecurityManager.checkPermission(DevAppServerFactory.java:166)
> at
> java.lang.SecurityManager.checkPackageAccess(SecurityManager.java:1512)
> at java.lang.Class.checkMemberAccess(Class.java:2164)
> at java.lang.Class.getMethod(Class.java:1602)
> at org.apache.commons.lang3.StringUtils.<clinit>(StringUtils.java:739)
> {code}
> The exception should be caught in the catch clauses around
> loadClass("sun.text.Normalizer").
> Commons lang 2 worked fine on GAE.
