I came across a weird issue while trying to build rssowl. I've attached
the test file. Trying this works:
ecj RSSOwlI18nZHtw.java
while this appears to hang:
ecj -encoding utf8 RSSOwlI18nZHtw.java
I can reproduce this behaviour on both an x86 box running an Eclipse 3.1
ecj (built myself) and on a ppc box running Eclipse 3.1 RC3 (the RPMs we
have in rawhide). Using Sun's javac (on the x86 box) does not hang when
I use "-encoding utf8". All are FC4 machines (with gcc*-4.0.0-11 in the
x86 case and gcc*-4.0.0-13 in the ppc case).
To add to the bizarre-ness, this appears to be as small as I can make
the test file without it being unable to reproduce the problem; I can't
seem to remove any of the lines if I want to continue to reproduce. In
another interesting twist, renaming the file (and class) to "TestUTF8"
does not reproduce the problem.
Anyone know what's going on?
Andrew
