Hi, Please find below a patch [1] for [2]:
8048020 - Regression on java.util.logging.FileHandler This corresponds to the problem that was discussed on this list in the following email thread: "Zombie FileHandler locks can exhaust all available log file locks." http://mail.openjdk.java.net/pipermail/core-libs-dev/2014-June/027296.html [1] http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~dfuchs/webrev_8048020/webrev.00/ [2] https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8048020 This patch would be a good candidate for being backported on 8, since the issue was introduced in 8. best regards, -- daniel
