FYI: java.text.FieldPosition

[Guilhem Lavaux]

Hi,

Here is an obvious to make FieldPosition behaves the way the java doc 
says it should.

ChangeLog entry:

2004-04-10  Guilhem Lavaux <address@hidden>

        * java/text/FieldPosition.java
        (FieldPosition) Constructor now behaves as it should according
        to the java documentation.

Cheers,

Guilhem.
