Perhaps one is for Mac OS X only. I know I would always get the insecure 
message in Java Console from Windows, so we would make the JNLP different for 
Mac OS X

I found there are actually two copies of the list but the second one seems to 
have never
listed it. Perhaps there is a disconnect somewhere but its not very clear to me.

I clearly see "apple.laf.useScreenMenuBar" along with all the rest.

This is current 8u-dev source and the file hasn't been updated in a year ..

I don't think it duplicates JDK-8074668 because Java Console message is 
different and clearly reveals property is considered insecure.

Additional information that may help:

For previous versions of Java, if you include the property 
apple.laf.useScreenMenuBar for a different OS, such as Windows OS, Java Console 
gives similar message, property considered insecure
-I think that's always been correct behavior because the property is only 
useful to Mac OS X

For previous versions of Java, menus will be missing on Mac OS X if you omit 
the property apple.laf.useScreenMenuBar
-Because property enables menus, leaving it out or ignoring the property takes 
away those menus.

Hello,
Looks like this is a duplicate of 
https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8074668
It should be fixed in 8u40b27

I recently opened a report with Oracle for what I believe may be the same 
issue. It may impact many existing Mac OS X applications so should be 
considered seriously.

(Review ID: JI-9020016) - JNLP property apple.laf.useScreenMenuBar no longer 
treated as secure for Mac OS X
