Hi, This is a request to backport 8017174 to 7u40 [1].
This is a regression from 7u25 causing applets calling Logger.getAnonymousLogger() to fail.
This fix has been resolved in jdk7u-dev and jdk8. WLS and GlassFish has done some preliminary testing with the 7u engineering build with this fix and found no new regression. Open review thread: http://mail.openjdk.java.net/pipermail/core-libs-dev/2013-June/018518.html The JDK 8 changeset is here: http://hg.openjdk.java.net/jdk8/tl/jdk/rev/020f023f87d1 It applied cleanly to the jdk7u-dev source base (hg export | hg import). JDK 7 changeset: http://hg.openjdk.java.net/jdk7u/jdk7u-dev/jdk/rev/7064285022a0 best regards, -- daniel Backport bug id: [1] https://jbs.oracle.com/bugs/browse/JDK-8020493
