JfrOptLocBugRepro 1,234,567.09 $ LANG=nb_NO.utf8 java -cp . JfrOptLocBugRepro 1 234 567,09 Problem description; If a flight recorder option is added, the numeric string is no longer formatted according to the locale. $ LANG=nb_NO.utf8 java -cp . -XX:FlightRecorderOptions= JfrOptLocBugRepro 1 234 567,09 $ LANG=nb_NO.utf8 java -cp . -XX:FlightRecorderOptions=stackdepth=256 JfrOptLocBugRepro 1,234,567.09 A cause may be that the flight recorder uses string formatting to build some internal debug strings, and this cause a premature and incorrect initialization of the locale.
