Was reading a recent InfoQ article (1) that touched on JEP-411 deprivation of Security Manager which relates to deprivation/removal of Applet (3). The article links up with a Netbeans blog entry on this (4).
Sounds like Netbeans uses it more for monitoring than actual security matters so does this mean really this sort of monitoring will no longer be possible and just needs to be removed? Or does this mean it needs to be modified to leverage different APIs (Security Policy??)? What is the plan for this? Not sure if this is related but does this overlap with a ticket raised previously on some other Security related deprecations (5)?
