Hi, JDK devs.
Is there a reason the impl not there below?

This is a bug, fixed in jdk8, 7107020: 
"java.net.PlainSocketImpl.socketSetOption() calls itself"

This bug did not create a much of a problem since setOption() is usually 
called for setting socket options.

jdk/src/windows/classes/java/net/PlainSocketImpl.java

     public void setOption(int opt, Object val) throws SocketException {
         setOption(opt, val);   // Why not impl.setOption(opt, val);?
     }

     public Object getOption(int opt) throws SocketException {
         return impl.getOption(opt);
     }

More generally, is there a general way to pass a non
StandardSocketOptions option
the down to the socket fd without having to go through the JNI path on
Windows?

Not that I am aware of.

Note that on Linux at least the option can be passed directly to the
built-in C native path.

Sorry, I don't get this.

Thanks much!
