Bug: 8010992: Remove calls to global ::operator new[] and new
https://jbs.oracle.com/bugs/browse/JDK-8010992
Problem description: Remove the usage of global operator ::new[] and
::new. In hotspot debug build, disable the usage of global new[] and
new. Hotspot does not throw c++ exceptions, but it cannot prevent third
party code to catch such exceptions. By disabling use of global
operator new[] and new, we constrain the exception disposal within
hotspot. C++ classes (as same for structs) in hotspot have to either
extends from CHeapObj or ResourceObj unless they are stack objects or
values which have to be from StackObj or _ValueObj respectively. Or
they have to implement their own operator new[] or new.
Thanks
Yumin
