-----------------------------------------------------
Test : nsk/sajdi/ArrayReference/getValues/getvalues001
VM : ClientVM, ServerVM
Mode : all
Platform : generic
OS : generic
JDK : 1.5.0-beta2-b40 and earlier
------------------------------------------------------

This SA-JDI test checks if getValues(int,int) returns
expected number of array elements, and each of returned values
is equal to value returned by getValue() for corresponding index.

Running with legacy JDI connectors this test passes.
Running with SA-JDI connectors getValues(start,length)
returns wrong number of values, actually it returns
'(length - start)' values number instead of expected
'length' values. The same values number is returned
even if 'length' is passed as -1.

I slightly modified original testcase to clearly illustrate
this failure and do not suffer from known bugs:

  5004867 SA-JDI: ArrayReference.getValue() throws IndexOutOfBoundsException
  5004851 SA-JDI: ArrayReference.getValues() and getValues(int,int) work incorrectly

Here is typical test output for the following tested array:

    static int[] primArrInt = {2794, -1, 0, 789643, -112};

-------------------------------------------------------------------
    field #4
      field name: primArrInt
      signature: [I
      ... found expected field #4
      ArrayReference: instance of int[5] (id=5)
      length: 5
      ... check ArrayReference.getValues(0,1)
        list size: 1
        item #0
          value: 2794
      ... check ArrayReference.getValue(1,4)

To reproduce this failure:
  cd /net/jano.sfbay/export/disk20/GammaBase/Bugs/<this bug number>
  sh build.sh $JAVA_HOME
  sh run.sh [-pid | -core | -socket] [-g] [-v] $JAVA_HOME [JAVA_OPTS]
where:
    -pid - run test with SA-JDI pid attaching connector (default)
    -core - run test with SA-JDI core attaching connector
    -socket - run test with JDI socket attaching connector
    -g - run test with java_g binaries
    -v - run test in verbose mode

This test will appear in the next r27 testbase release.
Running on Linux this test may fail due to known bug:
4996081 SA-JDI: SAPIDAttachingConnector.attach() throws IOEception on RH AS2.1
