* @summary Test options that are incompatible with use of shared strings
* Also test mismatch in oops encoding between dump time and run time
* @requires vm.cds.archived.java.heap
+ * @comment This test explicitly chooses the type of GC to be used by sub-processes. It may conflict with the GC type set
+ * via the -vmoptions command line option of JTREG. vm.gc==null will help the test case to discard the explicitly passed
+ * vm options.
* @requires (vm.gc=="null")
