Hi,

Due to a recent update in javac to issue a warning on detecting unreachable code, the following warning started showing up in the jdk networking code: ../../../src/share/classes/java/net/DatagramSocket.java:183: warning: unreachable catch clause. This fix aims at removing this warning by removing the IOException. On inspection, it was found that currently, the native code does not throw any IOException. The fix involves updates in: jdk/src/share/classes/java/net/DatagramSocket.java

Webrev: http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~chegar/7035556/webrev.00/ Thanks, -Kurchi Kurchi - one suggestion is to close the UDP socket in the event that the bind fails. That would be nicer than leaving it to the impl's finalizer. Ah yes, makes sense. thanks for catching this Alan. But, bind() already closes the impl internally before throwing the exception.
