RFR: 8132459: ExceptionInInitializerError from 'java -version' on Linux under zh_CN.GB18030 locale

[陆传胜(传胜)]

Hello,

 

The issue
was found on one of my Linux boxes which uses locale zh_CN.GB18030 by default,

a simple
patch was made to fix it, may I have it reviewed ?

 

webrev: http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~luchsh/webrev-8132459/

bug: https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8132459

 

JBS seems to be down
right now, so just put
related info in this mail.




The problem relates to bug JDK-8038310, and below simple command
will reproduce it,


LANG=zh_CN.GB18030
jdk9/bin/java -version

 

The error message is:

Error occurred
during initialization of VM

java.lang.ExceptionInInitializerError
