Hi All
This is a request to backport a jdk9 fix into jdk8u-dev.
8036971: krb5.conf does not accept directive lines before the first section
https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8036971
The fix ignores unsupported directive lines (Ex, include) before any section in a krb5.conf file.
It is already included in jdk9 as:
http://hg.openjdk.java.net/jdk9/dev/jdk/rev/74ee60cf6174
The review thread was
http://mail.openjdk.java.net/pipermail/security-dev/2014-March/010282.html
The patch for jdk8u-dev is identical to the one in jdk9.
The fix is low-risk, and isolated. new regression test added. Existing tests also run fine.
Thanks
Weijun
