[bug-classpath] [Bug classpath/22899] New: java.lang.ExceptionInInitializerError @ DecimalFormatSymbols:163 when dealing with dates

[tromey at gcc dot gnu dot org]

I seem to get this error when either trying to use DateFormat or java.sql.Date.



System config:

Jamvm 1.2.5 

Classpath 0.14

Debian unstable (kernel 2.6.9-1-k7-smp)

The exception occurs in the following from java.util.Currency:



    try

      {

        
properties.load(Currency.class.getResourceAsStream("iso4217.properties"));

      }

    catch (IOException exception)

      {

        System.out.println("Failed to load currency resource: " + exception);

      }



properties.load() throws a NullPointerException, presumably because 
getResourceAsStream has returned null.  Do you have iso4217.properties in your 
glibj.zip file?

As of "0.17+cvs", glibj.zip definitely contains this file.
I am closing this; if it still fails then it is a jamvm bug and
not a bug in classpath.
