Hi, Could someone please review my proposed changeset for JDK-8235139: '`Remove the socket impl factory mechanism`' ?
These changes propose to deprecate (for the eventual removal) the API points for statically configuring a system-wide factory for the `Socket`, `ServerSocket`, and `DatagramSocket` types in the `java.net package`. Specifically, the following: **Methods**: - `static void Socket.setSocketImplFactory(SocketImplFactory fac)` - `static void ServerSocket.setSocketFactory(SocketImplFactory fac)` - `static void DatagramSocket.setDatagramSocketImplFactory(DatagramSocketImplFactory fac)` **Types**: - `java.net SocketImplFactory` - `java.net DatagramSocketImplFactory` The CSR for[ JDK-8220494](https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8220494) contains some verbiage about the potential issues that setting factories can have, and alludes to their possible future removal. Kind regards, Patrick ------------- Commit messages: - 8235139: Remove the socket impl factory mechanism Changes: https://git.openjdk.java.net/jdk/pull/2375/files Webrev: https://webrevs.openjdk.java.net/?repo=jdk&pr=2375&range=00 Issue: https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8235139 Stats: 53 lines in 3 files changed: 26 ins; 22 del; 5 mod Patch: https://git.openjdk.java.net/jdk/pull/2375.diff Fetch: git fetch https://git.openjdk.java.net/jdk pull/2375/head:pull/2375 PR: https://git.openjdk.java.net/jdk/pull/2375
