    Default JDK 1.7 migration issue: java.lang.ExceptionInInitializerError

    We migrated our project to JDK 1.7 from 1.6. Getting below run time exception for few JUNITS which worked fine with JDK 1.6.
    Found that we may be hitting below bugs in JDK 1.7 related to specifying file.encoding=UTF-8 while running java.
    Does any one have hit this issue? Looking for any workaround and possible solutions.

    One comment states "-Dfile.encoding is not a supported usage". So the question is: why do you need this?

    Confirmed we dont use -Dfile.encoding. Code works in 1.6 but fails in 1.7. Below simple code fails in 1.7

    JAXBContext.newInstance("com.a.b");
