Hi,


Could some please review my fix for issue JDK-8233191 'MulticastSocket 
joinGroup/leaveGroup do not specify their behavior when the outgoing 
interface has not been set'?

This javadoc fix clarifies the behaviour of 2-arg joinGroup/leaveGroup 
methods when null is passed for the NetworkInteface argument. The fix 
also clarifies what is returned by getInterface() and 
getNetworkInterface() methods when no previous NetworkInterface has been 
set.

Kind regards,

Patrick
