<i18n dev> RFR: 8151876: (tz) Support tzdata2016c

[Ramanand Patil]

Hi all,

Please review the latest TZDATA (tzdata2016c) integration to JDK9.

Bug: https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8151876

Webrev: http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~rpatil/8151876/webrev.00/

All the TimeZone related tests are passed after integration.

 

Please note that this patch includes both tzdata2016b and tzdata2016c integration. The tzdata2016b review was abandoned because tzdata2016c was already released.

As suggested by Masayoshi, changes are made such that,  "GMT+hh:mm" is used for formatting of the newly added TimeZones in tzdata2016b.

[This is done to accommodate the IANA's new trial system where the new zones use numeric time zone abbreviations like "+04" instead of invented abbreviations like "ASTT".]

 

Regards,

Ramanand.
