This test has been failing recently for me with the error "No action after @build", I think possibly related to an update in jtreg (I built jtreg from code-tools-jtreg). The test is a compile-only test, it doesn't actually run or do anything. It basically just tests that ObjectStreamConstants constants are public and so would fail to compile if something removed these constants from the API. We can trivially replace the @build with a @compile tag but I'm not sure that the test has any value. Instead I suggest we just remove it, as in: hg rm test/java/io/Serializable/accessConstants/AccessConstants.java Any objections?

Not from me. In fact, I'd be happy for it to be removed.
