[RFR] 8205525 : Improve exception messages during manifest parsing of jar archives (original) (raw)

Hi Alan ,so it looks like JDK-8204233 added a switch (system property) to enable the enhanced socket IOException messages .

That would be an option as well for 8205525 .

8205525 adds the jar file name and the line number info to the exception message .

In case that only the jar file name would be considered sensitive , I would prefer to just output the line number (and omit the system property ). What do you think ?

Best regards, Matthias
