Hello,
Java was not launching on many AIX supported locales as the default
charsets for those locales were not included in the java.base and Java
could not access jdk.charsets during boot up.
Most of those locales were addressed through the Oracle bugs JDK-8201540
[1] and JDK-8202329 [2]. Still, few more are pending. In the remaining
locales, two charsets (Vi_VN.IBM-1129 & ja_JP.IBM-eucJP) are missing in
the jdk.charsets as well.
In this enhancement, IBM-1129 charset is getting added to jdk.charsets on
all platforms and to java.base on AIX platform.
The webrev of the fix is available at
http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~aleonard/IBM1129/webrev.00/
Kindly request you to review the webrev and provide your comments.
