src/java.naming/share/classes/com/sun/naming/internal/NamingManagerHelper.java line 81:

> 79:                 // No factory found, so return original refInfo.
> 80:                 // Will reach this point if factory class is not in
> 81:                 // class path and reference does not contain a URL for it

I think this "Will reach this point ..." part should be updated to note that the code will additionally reach here if the factory class is disallowed by the filters.

Similar change would be needed for the comment in `getDirObjectInstance` method.
