[PATCH] 6822627: NPE at ReferenceTypeImpl.constantPool

[Egor Ushakov]

Hi,

I'm a developer from IDEA debugger (we have company OCA).
We've increased usage of ReferenceTypeImpl.constantPool and now facing
JDK-6822627 more often.
Please review and sponsor the fix.

The problem was that constantPoolBytesRef SoftReference value coud be
GCed and there was no check for that.
I've added it to the check inside getConstantPoolInfo to request the
bytes again in this case.

Thanks!
