About JDK-8042694

[Harshad RJ]

Hi,

I hit this bug in my own application today:
https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8042694

My app uses the h2 database which installs a shutdown hook. Works fine, but
while running with JNLP, the shutdown hook thrown an exception, probably
because the JAR gets closed too early.

I can't find a way to register on the JIRA site, hence posting here.

I would like to know why was the bug closed as "won't fix"?

​thanks,​
