I was trying to avoid too many changes, but in the end I decided it
was better to refactor some of this code into a new method. So here is
the new webrev:
http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~mullan/webrevs/8075706/webrev.02/
Changes include:
- bootstrapping code moved to new method named loadPolicyProvider
- added Alan's suggestion to fallback to SCL only if CNFE is thrown
- instantiated default policy provider directly instead of using
reflection if property has not been changed or is not set
- addressed Mandy's comment about formatting
- enhanced test to cover more cases
I don't have cycles to look at the test but the changes to PolicyFile
looks okay, and in line with what was there previously. As getting the
value of the security.provider property involves a permission check then
I assume that isSet is guaranteed to be called before this code
executes, otherwise there would be another potential way to get
recursive initialization.
One small inconsistency is that Class.forName when trying to locate the
provider on the boot loader doesn't run the static initializers whereas
it does for the attempt to locate it via the system class loader.
