Missing entry in LineNumberTable for break statement that jumps out of try-finally

      FULL PRODUCT VERSION :
      java version "1.8.0_102"
      Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.8.0_102-b14)
      Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 25.102-b14, mixed mode)

      A DESCRIPTION OF THE PROBLEM :
      Compiler misses to include entry in LineNumberTable for break statement that jumps out of try-finally, however adds such entry in other cases. Not counting inconsistency between cases, for debugger this means that breakpoint cannot be set on a line with such break statement.

      Seems that this is not a regression since the same behavior is observed with javac 1.6.0_65 and 1.7.0_80.

      Background information: I'm one of developers of the JaCoCo code coverage tool. This tool relies on line number debug information within class files to provide code coverage highlighting. The defect reported here was uncovered during addition of tests into our regression test suite.

      STEPS TO FOLLOW TO REPRODUCE THE PROBLEM :
      Compile the provided source file with javac 1.8.0_131

      EXPECTED VERSUS ACTUAL BEHAVIOR :
      EXPECTED -
      The compiled class files has a LineNumberTable entry for the break statement in line 7.
      ACTUAL -
      There is no LineNumberTable entry for the break statement in line 7, however there is entry for the break statement in line 19 - see javap output below:
