StringBuilder.insert call is a cause of Stack Overflow

Name: skR10005 Date: 08/29/2003


New JCK tests
api/java_lang/StringBuilder/index.html#insert[StringBuilder0031]
api/java_lang/StringBuilder/index.html#insert[StringBuilder0032]
fail on jdk1.5.0-b17 with java.lang.StackOverflowError exception.

The tests check StringBuilder.insert(int offset, boolean b) method.

Looking at the source of StringBuilder, you can see:
    public StringBuilder insert(int offset, boolean b) {
insert(offset, b);
        return this;
    }
It looks like "super." is missed in invocation of insert method.
