My guess is that it's ok. Most of the patch is documentation directly from
Classpath. There are a couple of trivial patches we would probably accept
without assignment, and then there are a number of methods that changed like
this:
private boolean isWhitespace(int ch)
{
- if (ch >= 0 && ch <= 255)
- return whitespace[ch];
-
- return false;
+ return (ch >= 0 && ch <= 255 && whitespace[ch]);
}
FWIW - the compiler output should be identical. I actually prefer the
original code.
(btw - thanks Oskar!)
