The following program ran in 1.1.5 but
crashes in 1.1.6:

// This program worked fine in jdk 1.1.5 but is broken
// in 1.1.6 generating an Array Index out of bounds at
// RuleBasedCollator.getContractValues()

import java.util.Locale;
import java.text.Collator;

public class test {
  public static void main(String args[]) {
Collator collator = Collator.getInstance(new Locale("sv", "SE", ""));
  }
}

Verified that this bug occurs exactly as described.
It's a general win32 bug, as I have also observed
it on win95. It does not occur on Solaris, though.
Also, the bug seems to have been already fixed in
JDK1.2beta4 -- not sure about JDK1.1.7...

Similar report from Denmark:

When creating a Collator, with this statement:
  
    Collator myCollator=Collator.getInstance();

in JDK1.1.6 (Win32), I get the following exception:

java.lang.ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException: 10 >= 10
  at java.lang.Throwable.<init>(Compiled Code)
  at java.util.Vector.elementAt(Compiled Code)
  at java.text.RuleBasedCollator.getContractValues(Compiled Code)

  at java.text.Collator.getInstance(Compiled Code)
  at java.text.Collator.getInstance(Compiled Code)
  at MyClass.MyMethod(Compiled Code)

It works fine in JDK1.1.5.
My locale is Denmark.

Similar bug from Sweden (again):

 I get the below exception when I try to sort my strings on jdk1.1.6
With Symantec Visual CafePDE however it works all right.
 I tried both the using the default Locale and the Swedish one but got
similar errors.
Apperantly it has something to do with the swedish characters å,ä and ö
because when I replaced theses characters with a,a and o it worked fine.

Good Luck with the bug (if there is one?)
