Hi

Please review the revision to the change for

JDK-8187485: Update Zip implementation to use Cleaner, not finalizers

For compatibility with previous jdk releases, in this proposed revision the corresponding close()/end() methods will be called when the ZipFile/Inflater/Deflater object has become unreachable, if the ZipFile/Inflater/Deflater has been subclassed and its close()/end() method has been overridden. In this case, the finalization mechanism is used to clean up the underlying resources. If the ZipFile/Inflater/Deflater has not been subclassed OR the corresponding close()/end() method has not been overridden, then the Cleaner mechanism is used to do the cleanup.
