                    Hi!<br>
                    <br>
                    I found a small problem in jinterface. It has been
                    around for a while now,<br>
                    it happens in a corner case that probably nobody
                    ever uses.<br>
                    <br>
                    In OtpErlangTuple(OtpErlangObject[], int, int), when
                    the size of the slice<br>
                    used is 0, then the elems fields remains
                    uninitialized, it is the parameter<br>
                    that gets assigned.<br>
                    <br>
                    I used master as base, I hope it's still possible to
                    do that.<br>
                    <br>

                    <br>
                    Given that there are no other tests for jinterface
                    at this level, do you<br>
                    want me to write one for this case?<br>
                    <br>
                    best regards,<br>

                  your branch is outdated so the diff is not clean, i.e.
                  contains a lot of other<br>
                  commits<br>
                  ->  please rebase your branch<br>
                  see <a href="https://github.com/erlang/otp/wiki/Submitting-patches" target="_blank">https://github.com/erlang/otp/wiki/Submitting-patches</a><br>
                  <br>
                  it would probably also be good to base it on maint -
                  but someone from the otp<br>
                  team needs to decide here :)<br>
                  <br>
                  your commit though seems reasonable<br>

    Re-fetched the patch, I don't remember how the how-to is describing
    on the comparison-links but you should write it like this instead
<a href="https://github.com/vladdu/otp/compare/erlang:master...tuple_constructor_bug" target="_blank">https://github.com/vladdu/otp/compare/erlang:master...tuple_constructor_bug</a><br>
    So,<br>
    the branch you are based upon should be in the link
    ('erlang:master...' or when it is maint 'erlang:maint...').<br>
    This will make a proper link for us to examine.<div class="im"><br>
