Why hash codes in SymbolTable mismatching java_lang_String::hash_code for extended characters in Open JDK?

Solution Verified - Updated -

Issue

  • SA: hash codes in SymbolTable mismatching java_lang_String::hash_code for extended characters.
  • Can't use the SA if the target application contains a symbol which uses a non-ascii character.
  • The SA tool will fail with an error, the JVM itself and the SA having calculated different hashes for
    such Strings.

Environment

  • Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6
  • java-1.7.0-openjdk
