> 1)
> java.text.DateFormatSymbols.setLocalPatternChars(String newLocalPatternChars):
> Harmony does not throw NullPointerException when newLocalPatternChars=null, while RI throws it.
> Specification does not mention NullPointerException throwing.
> It's a bug becasue we should comply with RI if spec is not clear.
> 2)
> java.text.DecimalFormat.formatToCharacterIterator(Object obj):
> Harmony throws IllegalArgumentException when obj= null, while RI throws NullPointerException.
> Specification says:
> "Throws:
> NullPointerException - if obj is null.
> IllegalArgumentException - when the Format cannot format the given object."
> It's a bug as we should comply with spec.
> 3)
> java.text.SimpleDateFormat.formatToCharacterIterator(Object obj):
> Harmony throws IllegalArgumentException when obj=null, while RI throws NullPointerException.
> Specification says:
> "Throws:
> NullPointerException - if obj is null.
> IllegalArgumentException - if the Format cannot format the given object, or if the Format's
> pattern string is invalid."
> It's a bug as we should comply with RI.
