Hi Phil,
We have an exact task to get rid of all internal dependencies in client
tests [1]
One of these dependencies is realSync() method usage that will no longer
be available for use since Jigsaw project is fully integrated. One can
grep realSync through the jdk/test directory to access the scales of the
disaster. And there is no any method in public class we can call to use
realSync.
As for javadoc, there are a few types of internal warnings that realSync
can throw. I've mentioned all of them.
We can prevent it by catching them all and throwing some public Exception.
Thanks,
Dima
