Hi Weijun, I see JDK-4141872 <https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-4141872> marked as Not an Issue, is there any further task continue, or there is any link else to track this problem to remove the canonical path?
It's a big improvement if canonical path can be totally removed but I can't figure out how we get the result of the implies* methods without canonical path? Any more detail? Thanks a lot! 2015-02-07 7:10 GMT+08:00 Wang Weijun <weijun.w...@oracle.com>: > Hi Deven > > Sorry for the noise, but in fact we are looking into removing the > canonicalization step because of > > 4141872: FilePermission makes symlinks useless > https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-4141872 > > This will be a very big incompatible change and we are still doing a > feasibility study. > > Of course, we won't touch jdk8u or earlier. > > Thanks > Max > > > On Feb 6, 2015, at 14:09, deven you <ydwch...@gmail.com> wrote: > > > > Hi All, > > > > I have updated the patch[1] according to above discussion.
