rev 6239 : 8039805: Fix the signature of the global new/delete operators in allocation.cpp
*** 684,725 ****
#ifndef PRODUCT
// The global operator new should never be called since it will usually indicate
// a memory leak. Use CHeapObj as the base class of such objects to make it explicit
// that they're allocated on the C heap.
// Commented out in product version to avoid conflicts with third-party C++ native code.
! // On certain platforms, such as Mac OS X (Darwin), in debug version, new is being called
! // from jdk source and causing data corruption. Such as
! // Java_sun_security_ec_ECKeyPairGenerator_generateECKeyPair
! // define ALLOW_OPERATOR_NEW_USAGE for platform on which global operator new allowed.
//

//
#ifndef ALLOW_OPERATOR_NEW_USAGE
! // In C++98/03 the throwing new operators are defined with the following signature:
! //
! // void* operator new(std::size_tsize) throw(std::bad_alloc);
! // void* operator new[](std::size_tsize) throw(std::bad_alloc);
! //
! // while all the other (non-throwing) new and delete operators are defined with an empty
! // throw clause (i.e. "operator delete(void* p) throw()") which means that they do not
! // throw any exceptions (see section 18.4 of the C++ standard).
! //
! // In the new C++11/14 standard, the signature of the throwing new operators was changed
! // by completely omitting the throw clause (which effectively means they could throw any
! // exception) while all the other new/delete operators where changed to have a 'nothrow'
! // clause instead of an empty throw clause.
! //
! // Unfortunately, the support for exception specifications among C++ compilers is still
! // very fragile. While some more strict compilers like AIX xlC or HP aCC reject to
! // override the default throwing new operator with a user operator with an empty throw()
! // clause, the MS Visual C++ compiler warns for every non-empty throw clause like
! // throw(std::bad_alloc) that it will ignore the exception specification. The following
! // operator definitions have been checked to correctly work with all currently supported
! // compilers and they should be upwards compatible with C++11/14. Therefore
! // PLEASE BE CAREFUL if you change the signature of the following operators!
