RFR(XS): 8220625: tools/javac/classreader/8171132/BadConstantValue.java failed with "did not see expected error"

[Langer, Christoph]

Hi Martin,

I think this is a good fix for the issue. You could also try to compile from a source dir that is different to the classes dir that is used later on to load the bad class.

I think using the .java file if it is younger than the .class file is correct, when loading the class.

Best regards
Christoph

Hi,

we have also seen this test failing. I've analyzed the issue and added a comment:
https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8220625

My suggested fix:
http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~mdoerr/8171132_BadConstantValue/webrev.00/

Please check if the ClassReader behavior is as expected (usage of .java file with same timestamp even though .class file was provided).
If so, please review my trivial fix.

Best regards,
Martin
