It’s new to JarFile, but not new to the changeset, it’s been in there since the reviews started. > Is this the *only* method you would call for a multi-release jar? No, it’s a method we had to add to support runtime versioning for the Class.getResource() method. We either had to set runtime versioning for all JarFiles obtained from a JarURLConnection or set it specifically for a resource entry retrieved by the Class.getResource() method, that uses a JarURLConnection. It’s a rather convoluted path through the system, but it you follow it, you’ll see what we did and how — look at the changes for JarURLConnection. It’s a rather specialized method that I wish could be private, but it can’t be. Having said that, someone might find a use for it. It’s equivalent to JarFile.setRuntimeVersioned().getJarEntry(), but it doesn’t set a permanent versioning strategy for the JarFile. See MultiReleaseJarProperties testRuntimeVersioning test. > If so, is it still necessary to modify the old getEntry() method?
