Local fix
Problem summary
api/java_nio/charset/Charset/index.html#Methods fails with java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError
Problem conclusion
After some further investigation, I found that in charsets.jar, there is still one EBCDIC charset: IBM1377 which depends on sun.nio.cs.ext.DBCS_IBM_EBCDIC_Decoder which SFJ has already removed.To solve this problem, we need to remove the IBM1377 charset as well so that make sure there is no EBCDIC charsets any more. . This APAR will be fixed in the following Java Releases: 7 R1 SR3 (7.1.3.0) 8 SR1 (8.0.1.0) . Contact your IBM Product's Service Team for these Service Refreshes and Fix Packs.
