Container.add(Component, int) incorrectly throws ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException

Name: dsR10051 Date: 03/21/2001



Method public Component add(Component comp, int index)
of class java.awt.Container can throw undocumented
ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException when component is added twice.

Here is minimized test:
import java.awt.*;

public class Test2 {
    public static void main(String argv[]) {

        Panel p=new Panel();
        int[] values = {0,1};
        Canvas comp = new Canvas();
        for(int i=0;i<values.length;i++) {
            System.out.println(values[i]);
            p.add(comp,values[i]);
        }
    }
}
