[classlib] [luni] EnumSet.writeReplace() is never used
------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: HARMONY-2286
                 URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HARMONY-2286
             Project: Harmony
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Classlib
            Reporter: Sian January
            Priority: Minor


I have been looking at some of the bugs found by Melody and one of them is that there's an illegal cast in EnumSet.writeReplace() ("Impossible cast from java.lang.Object[] to java.lang.Enum[] in java.util.EnumSet.writeReplace()").  I realised that this method is never used.  All instances of EnumSet are subclasses (either MiniEnumSet or HugeEnumSet) and because writeReplace() has private visibility it is not used by subclasses when they are serialized.

On inspection I don't actually think the inner class EnumSet.SerializationProxy is needed - I think serialization should work for EnumSet without it because it doesn't seem to have any special behaviour.
