Hello, Jiri.

Sorry for the delayed answer.
 From the code point of view you current change looks OK to me. It's an 
internal package and we can change the access modifier easily.

The more general question is what are you going to achieve by making this 
change?
In JDK-9 we would have modules and you will not be able to use the sun.* 
packages at all, so this changeset is useless for JDK9.
Do you want this to go to JDK8?

In the original discussion there was a suggestion about providing a standard 
public interface for alternative plugins.
This path looks more promising to me, because it will work in JDK9. Did any 
progress happen in that direction?

hi guys!

Do we need some JEP to make  this happen?


J.

Thank you.
With best regards. Petr.

Hi!

IcedTea-Web [1] have now patch [3] from [2] thread,  to work pretty smooth with 
all Icedteas, all
Openjdks and all Oracle javas.  It even do work with IBM java.
However, we needed to include few lines of copypasted code [3] line 274-283. 
Well it is not so much,
but is potentially dangerous.

If this mini changeset -  
http://jvanek.fedorapeople.org/oracle/jdk9/applet-minipatch/1/webrev/ may
go in, it would be awesome and will make icedtea-web true Openjdk plugin. Do 
you think it is
possible?

Just note - there already was a discussion about unnecessary complex version of 
similar patch -  [4]
thread. As result it forbid any touches to sun.applet package. However current 
webrev do not add any
more visibility. It changes from private to package private. I hope it is much 
more suitable

I sent this message originally to jdk9-dev.. It/I was wrong I guess. Sorry

Best regards,
   J.
