Howdy, >(2) I think its silly that SUN has slated fixing this bug for 1.5 and their >workaround makes very little sense - Anyone know what the following stated >work around translates to in actual code? > >"Don't reuse StringBuffers. If you do reuse them, check their capacity and >make sure that you aren't making tiny Strings from huge StringBuffers"
It means use a StringBuffer just once. To be safe, don't play with the StringBuffer.clear() and don't keep references to StringBuffers after you're done using them. Construct a new StringBuffer every time you need one. >(3) Steve, last time I downloaded an IBM JRE (a real long time ago) it was >a real pain as it was (a) buried within many nested web pages and (b) was >part of a websphere download - Do you offhand have a direct link to (just) >IBM's 1.4 JRE? See http://www-106.ibm.com/developerworks/java/jdk/index.html Note that this does not constitute an endorsement of the IBM JDK on my part ;) I don't particularly like their JDK.
