This is a request for a partial backport from JDK 8. The code in question was part of a large patch which has been integrated now for about three months.
Issue: http://bugs.sun.com/bugdatabase/view_bug.do?bug_id=8024356 Webrev: http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~bpb/8024356/ Review: http://mail.openjdk.java.net/pipermail/core-libs-dev/2013-September/020837.html Assuming this is approved, I will need a JDK 7 Committer for push it. Thanks, Brian
