> As long as we integrate one of the SM removal PRs early during NB 26 so that we can finally start running tests on JDK 24 and catch up so to speak. Disabling the SecurityManager with an easily revertible flag for one release first seems like a good separate step. It's a bit of a "rip the band-aid" situation, but eventually OpenJDK will rip it for us. > I wished there was more discussion on the dev list threads I saw the discussions myself but never quite managed to understand what the SecurityManager was doing that was essential. I just understood the part about protection from System.exit(), which seemed like something we could live without. And there seems to be a lot of other things which are mainly diagnostic in nature. Though it sounds like there are a lot of tests that break without it. If problems do arise from this PR, I bet more people will get involved in the discussion. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
