> Hi,
>
> Could someone please review my changes for the removal of the legacy `PlainSocketImpl` and `PlainDatagramSocketImpl` implementations?
>
> In JDK 13, JEP 353 provided a drop in replacement for the legacy `PlainSocketImpl` implementation. Since JDK 13, the `PlainSocketImpl` implementation was no longer used but included a mitigation mechanism to reduce compatibility risks in the form of a JDK-specific property `jdk.net.usePlainSocketImpl` allowing to switch back to the old implementation.
> Similarly, in JDK 15, JEP 373 provided a new implementation for `DatagramSocket` and `MulticastSocket`, with a JDK-specific property `jdk.net.usePlainDatagramSocketImpl` also allowing the user to switch back to the old implementation in case of compatibility issue.
>
> As these implementations (and the mechanisms they use to enable them to mitigate compatibility issues) have been deemed no longer necessary, they now represent a maintenance burden. This patch looks at removing them from the JDK.
>
> Kind regards,
> Patrick
