Hi,
This is a minor change to javapropsmd.c to return "Windows 8" as the "os.name" for Windows version 6.2. Is there any windows version specific code that might also need updating to allow for Windows 8 aka 6.2? The changes look fine to me.
David - I'm sure that Windows 8 will bring surprises but so far the only one that we know of for the "core" area is:
7096436: (sc) SocketChannel.connect fails on Windows 8 when channel configured non-blocking
Kurchi pushed a fix for that a few weeks ago. I'm sure other issues (client area in particular) will be found once folks start to run tests and use Windows 8 in anger.
-Alan.
