Description

Problem details:
There is no mention of IllegalArgumentException in the specification, but
java.awt.RenderingHints( RenderingHints.Key key,Object o) throws unexpected IllegalArgumentException while RI does not.

Test for reproducing:
import junit.framework.TestCase;
import java.awt.*;

public class test extends TestCase {
public void test1 ()

{ new RenderingHints(RenderingHints.KEY_RENDERING,new String("MyMessageDigest")); }

}
Output on Sun 1.5:
==================
.
Time: 0

OK (1 test)

Output on Harmony:
==================
.E
Time: 0
There was 1 error:
1) test1(test)java.lang.IllegalArgumentException
at java.awt.RenderingHints.put(RenderingHints.java:98)
at java.awt.RenderingHints.<init>(RenderingHints.java:89)
at test.test1(test.java:6)
at java.lang.reflect.VMReflection.invokeMethod(Native Method)

FAILURES!!!
Tests run: 1, Failures: 0, Errors: 1

I suggest to mark this case as non-bug difference. If you take a look at the put() method description in RenderingHints class, spec says:
"Throws: IllegalArgumentException - value is not appropriate for the specified key.". I think the same check should be implemented in the constructor as it is done in Harmony. IMO invalid values for the rendering hints' keys don't make any sense.
