Description
|
javac needs Cloneable and Serializable on the classpath even when not directly used.
This causes problems for JavaCard, which does not support these interfaces.

Evaluation

This is a problem since JLS states very clearly that arrays implement the interfaces Cloneable and Serializable. JLS 3 $10.8, p. 293.
Suggest putting empty interfaces for Cloneable and Serializable on the bootclasspath for compilation, to keep the compiler happy.

Will consider synthesizing the classes if they are not available on the bootclasspath.
