This is the javadoc of `JavaLangAccess::newStringNoRepl`:
/** * Constructs a new {@code String} by decoding the specified subarray of * bytes using the specified {@linkplain java.nio.charset.Charset charset}. * * The caller of this method shall relinquish and transfer the ownership of * the byte array to the callee since the later will not make a copy. * * @param bytes the byte array source * @param cs the Charset * @return the newly created string * @throws CharacterCodingException for malformed or unmappable bytes */ It is recorded in the document that it should be able to directly construct strings with parameter byte array to reduce array allocation. However, at present, `newStringNoRepl` always copies arrays for UTF-8 or other ASCII compatible charsets. This PR fixes this problem. ------------- Commit messages: - newStringNoRepl should avoid copying arrays for ASCII compatible charsets Changes: https://git.openjdk.org/jdk/pull/12119/files Webrev: https://webrevs.openjdk.org/?repo=jdk&pr=12119&range=00 Issue: https://bugs.openjdk.org/browse/JDK-8299807 Stats: 7 lines in 2 files changed: 4 ins; 0 del; 3 mod Patch: https://git.openjdk.org/jdk/pull/12119.diff Fetch: git fetch https://git.openjdk.org/jdk pull/12119/head:pull/12119 PR: https://git.openjdk.org/jdk/pull/12119
