JDK-4975724 - Need ACC_ANNOTATION bit to support JSR175
Description
The JCK test vm.classfmt.atr.atrinc211.atrinc21101m1.atrinc21101m1 is
invalidated by the addition of the ACC_ANNOTATION bit (see 4975724). This test
loads a class with an InnerClasses attribute with all of the reserved bits set
in the inner class's access flags. The JVM specification states that these
reserved bits should be set to 0 by compilers and ignored by JVM
implementations; now that one of these bits is being used, the jcod file
must clear at least that bit.

Please see 4975724 for the definitive value of the ACC_ANNOTATION bit.

EVALUATION Name: vrR10176 Date: 02/11/2004 The test atrinc21101m1 checks that JVM implementation ignores reserved bits of inner_class_access_flags (JVMS-2, Table 4.7) item set to 1. Latest draft of new JVM specification does not mention ACC_ANNOTATION bit in the Table 4.7 "Nested class access and property flags". Therefore the test atrinc21101m1 conforms to JVMS-2 and to the latest draft of new JVMS. But new JVMS may be changed (see Comments). So this bug should be reassigned to specification until the issue is resolved. ====================================================================== See CCC request 4975724, which does indeed hava a sepc for this bit. ###@###.### 2004-02-11 However, the bit is NOT supposed to appear in the InnerClasses attribute. ###@###.### 2004-02-13 Ultimately, the decision was made to have it in the inner class attribute. The spec out for maintenance review shows this. ###@###.### 2004-06-21
