JDK-6333923 - Using javax.xml.transform causes an annoying warning message to be written to System.err
Description
FULL PRODUCT VERSION :
java version "1.6.0-ea"
Java(TM) 2 Runtime Environment, Standard Edition (build 1.6.0-ea-b37)
Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 1.6.0-ea-b37, mixed mode, sharing)

A DESCRIPTION OF THE PROBLEM :
When I wrap an OutputStream in an OutputStreamWriter and then send it to an XML Transformer to write to a file, I receive the following runtime warning:

Warning: Could not get charToByteConverterClass!

By default, a sensible converter class should be chosen.


REPRODUCIBILITY :
This bug can be reproduced always.

EVALUATION Found this issue as part of cleaning up old bugs. Using the provided testcase, I verified that the error ouput "Warning: Could not get CharToByteConverterClass!" no longer appeared using jdk 1.6.0. Tested also using: jdk 1.5.0_11, and 1.6.0_02. Also found the issue had been fixed in CR 6333923.

EVALUATION apache class src/share/classes/com/sun/org/apache/xml/internal/serializer/Encodings.java has static init code to load "sun.io.CharToByteConverter", it gives out warning message if the loading failed, which is always true after we removed the sun.io package from mustang. I dont see anyone uses the chartobyteconverter though. This static init code need to be removed, but this is apache code, need figure out how to remove it. ###@###.### 2005-06-10 06:17:22 GMT Iris pointed me to jaxp/jaxp/other. I would suggest (1)remove the converter loading code (2)and init that static variable to null. ###@###.### 2005-06-10 19:23:57 GMT
