java 1.6 1.7 区别_为什么下面的代码在Java 1.6和1.7中表现不同

下面的代码

public class Test16Jit {

public static void main(String[] s) {

int max = Integer.MAX_VALUE;

int i = 0;

long li = 0;

while (i >= 0) {

i++;

li++;

if (i > max) {

System.out.println("i is : " + i);

System.out.println("max is : " + max);

System.out.println("Woo!! something really went wrong");

}

}

System.out.println("Value of i: " + i);

System.out.println("Total # of iterations: " + li);

}

}

java 1.7x中的输出如下

Value of i: -2147483648

Total # of iterations: 2147483648

Java 1.6x中的输出如下

i is : 2147483636

max is : 2147483647

Woo!! something really went wrong

Value of i: -2147483648

Total # of iterations: 2147483648

这种行为有原因吗？

如果我改变了

int max = Integer.MAX_VALUE; -> final int max = Integer.MAX_VALUE;

它在1.6x和1.7x中表现完全相同
