CTW: Attempt to preload all classes in constant pool

XMLWordPrintable

    • b11

        CTW runners do preloading for constant pools ahead of time. I believe this is done to expose more loaded classes to the compilations, so to extend the compilation scope.

        Unfortunately, current code catches the first exception when loading the constant pool and stops preloading. This routinely happens when CTW runner processes a 3rd party JAR, where dependencies might normally be in other JARs.

        I believe we should attempt to resolve all constant pool entries when preloading is requested. This would likely expand the scope of CTW testing.
