Re: RFR: 8296244: Alternate implementation of user-based authorization Subject APIs that doesn’t depend on Security Manager APIs [v3]

[Peter Firmstone]

JDK-8267108 doesn't mention any existing getSubject/doAs methods will be 
changed to throw UnsupportedOperationException, would be great if that 
can be documented as well, if I hadn't seen the change in the mailing 
list I would have missed it.   Just helps track related changes.

Thanks,

Peter.
