I think there's a oversight here. What we meant was a separate GetIntegerAction class instead of GetPropertyAction. The code would then look like:


final int power = sun.security.action.GetIntegerAction.privilegedGetProperty(PROPERTY_PATH + name, defaultPower);
return 1 << Math.clamp(power, 0, Integer.SIZE - 2);
