Scratch that: as it seems to be important that we don't switch after startup then what this code is really reaching for is `static final` field semantics. Since `StandardCharsets` might be loaded very early a holder class pattern might be necessary:
isGB18030_2000() { return GB18030Properties.GB18030_2000; }
private static class GB18030Properties {
private static final GB18030_2000 = init();
private static boolean init() {
if (VM.initLevel() < 1) {
// Cannot get the system property yet. Assumes non-2000
return false;
}
return "2000".equals(GetPropertyAction.privilegedGetProperty("jdk.charset.GB18030"));
}
}
