NEW

New Features and Changes

  • New Command-line option to Identify Use of Deprecated Mechanisms - The endorsed-standards override mechanism and the extension mechanism are deprecated in JDK 8u40 and may be removed in a future release. There are no runtime changes. Existing applications using the 'endorsed-standards override' or 'extension' mechanisms are recommended to migrate away from using these mechanisms. To help identify any existing uses of these mechanisms, the -XX:+CheckEndorsedAndExtDirs command-line option is available. It will fail if any of the following conditions is true:
    • -Djava.endorsed.dirs or -Djava.ext.dirs system property is set to alter the default location; or
    • ${java.home}/lib/endorsed directory exists; or
    • ${java.home}/lib/ext contains any JAR files excluding the ones that JDK ships; or
    • any platform-specific system-wide extension directory contains any JAR files.
    The -XX:+CheckEndorsedAndExtDirs command-line option is supported in JDK 7u80 and later releases.

Bug Fixes

  • Area: tools/jar
    Synopsis: Improve jar file handling
    Starting with JDK 7u79 release, the jar tool no longer allows the leading slash "/" and ".." (dot-dot) path component in zip entry file name when creating new and/or extracting from zip and jar file. If needed, the new command line option "-P" should be used explicitly to preserve the dot-dot and/or absolute path component.
