7133476: (fs) Files.readAttributes throws NPE (original) (raw)

Currently Files.readAttributes throws NPE rather than UOE on Mac OS X when invoked to read DOS attributes. This looks like an issue introduced upstream in the BSD porting project. To fix this requires removing BsdFileSystemProvider.readAttributes (the super class implementation does the right thing already). While I was there I also removed commented out code that should not be here. The webrev with the changes is here:

Thanks, Alan.
