The problem is that they actually don't do that. parseVersionNumber(String) happily accepts leading zeros or negative numbers (actually everything that's parsed by Integer.parseInt()). Handling all these cases in parseVersionNumber(String) would either make the implementation quite complicated or bring us back to using a regexp. > Thanks! > > /Claes > > >> >> - I was a little bit surprised that I could reflectively access and >> execute java.lang.VersionProps.parseVersionNumbers() where both the >> class and the method are package private.
