Production use of "jpackage.app-path" property
by Zlatin Balevsky 24 Mar '21

24 Mar '21

Hi, In my application I need to know the absolute path of the executable generated by jpackage at runtime. I found the "jpackage.app-path" system property and it is exactly what I was looking for. However, I found no documentation relating to it and am concerned that since it's undocumented it may go away in future JDK versions. Is that a valid concern? Can I count on it being there in the next LTS release of the JDK? Thank you in advance Zlatin Balevsky

Please review this change to java.util.Timer, replacing the use of deprecated finalization-based cleanup with use of java.lang.ref.Cleaner. In addition, Timer.cancel now cancels any later execution of the the no longer relevant cleanup. Testing: mach5 tier1 New AutoStop test verifies the specified cleanup behavior.

Please review this minor change to the specification of `java.io.PrintStream`.
