Incidents submitted via <a href="http://bugs.sun.com" target="_blank">bugs.sun.com</a> have historically been hit or
miss. I don't know why these four were not moved to the JDK bug
database, but here they are now:<br>

The OpenJDK mailing lists aren't a support channel but reproducible
test cases are a wonderful way to contribute. So if you have test
cases or patches that can be added to these bugs for the issues that
are in OpenJDK then it's best to follow-up on the appropriate
mailing list (likely awt-dev or swing-dev for some of these). <br>

<div>Finally:</div>
<div>- We had a terrible experience when trying to report a bug
against JAXP. We detected a severe data corruption problem in
StaX when dealing with Unicode SMP characters, so we reported
it, including a sample Java program 100% reproducible, in
January 2013 (JAXP-76 on <a href="http://java.net" target="_blank">java.net</a> JIRA). As no activity
was visible on this JIRA instance, we tried to use the
standard Java bug report, three times, without success, with
incident numbers 2431783 (2013-01-23), 2627098 (2013-10-28)
and 9048481 (2014-11-28), without any answer. On 2014,
November 29th we discovered by chance that the bug had finally
been detected and fixed internally, as JDK-8058175 (created
and resolved in September 2014). We reported back to the
public JAXP JIRA instance, again without any answer. 6 months
later we finally got the ironic and laconic answer "Please
report issues to the OpenJDK Bug System", which was exactly
was we were trying to do for 2 years! Can you please tell us
why our bug reports were all silently ignored while the bug
was real, and if is it still worth reporting bugs against
JAXP? Thankfully we had far better experiences with other
components of the JDK.</div>

JAXP development moved from the <a href="http://jaxp.java.net" target="_blank">jaxp.java.net</a> project to OpenJDK in
early 2012. The project main page should be clearer on this point. I
wasn't aware there was a JIRA instance but it probably should be
shut down to avoid confusion.<br>
<br>
In any case, here is the mapping:<br>
<br>
2431783 => <a href="https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8132652" target="_blank">https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8132652</a><br>
<br>
2627098 => this one is on the old Sun web incident reporting
system, I don't know how to move it to JIRA but it seems to be a dup
of JDK-8141097 or JDK-8058175.<br>
<br>
JI-9048481 => <a href="https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8141097" target="_blank">https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8141097</a><br>
<br>
As you note, JDK-8058175 has been fixed in JDK 9 builds for some
time (since jdk9-b31). If you can verify the fix with the JDK 9
builds then you could lobby on jdk8u-dev to have it back-ported to
8u.<span class="HOEnZb"><font color="#888888"><br>
