> Say, we write the same object by the following code:
> Object o = "foobar";
> oos.writeObject(o);
> oos.writeUnshared(o);
> oos.writeObject(o);
> And then, read the written data by the code as follows:
> Object[] oa = new Object[3];
> for (int i = 0; i < oa.length; i++) {
>     oa[i] = ois.readObject();
> }
> We expect that:
> 1) the 0th and 1st elements of the array are not equal. That is, oa[0] != oa[1].
> 2) the 1st and 2nd elements of the array are not equal. That is, oa[1] != oa[2].
> 3) the 0th and 2nd elements of the array are equal. That is, oa[0] == oa[2].
> All the three conditions are true if we run a test case in RI:
> oa[0] != oa[1] - true
> oa[1] != oa[2] - true
> oa[0] == oa[2] - true
> When we run the test case in Harmony the first condition is true and the rest two are false.
> oa[0] != oa[1] - true
> oa[1] != oa[2] - false
> oa[0] == oa[2] - false
> Here is an excerpt from the spec which shows us that Harmony behaves incorrectly:
> "If writeObject is used to write an object that has been previously written with writeUnshared, the previous writeUnshared operation is treated as if it were a write of a separate object. In other words, ObjectOutputStream will never generate back-references to object data written by calls to writeUnshared"
> Please note also, that oa[2] should be back-referenced to oa[0].
> I will attach the test case.
