Hi
Here patches for making the jdk jtreg tests succeed
Just an FYI that one of the ground rules for the jdk7u project [1] is
that fixes go into jdk8 first. This means that you probably should bring
these patches to appropriate mailing list for
discussion/review/sponsorship before bringing them to the jdk7u-dev list.
1/ java.util.logging jtreg tests working in a country where the locale
is different from en_US
The tests can be run in several different ways, only othervm (the
default) always starts up a new VM for each test. I bring this up
because changing the default locale could potentially impact (or change
the behavior) of tests that run subsequently in the same VM. Where a
test needs to change the default locale then it should probably restore
it before the test completes (you'll see other tests that do this). That
said, I'm surprised that we issues with these tests haven't been caught
before.
