As this cross-platform code must run on both 32-bit and 64-bit platforms on multiple architectures, and has been successfully utilized on a number of different JVM versions from multiple vendors over the course of the past decade, upstream does not accept this change without a more sound security or performance rationale. Additionally, the packaging logic follows the example of a closely related existing Fedora JNI library package called JSS (e. g. - from a machine running 32-bit Fedora 11): # rpm -qlv jss -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 681931 Aug 21 01:34 /usr/lib/java/jss4-4.2.6.jar lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 14 Aug 21 01:34 /usr/lib/java/jss4.jar -> jss4-4.2.6.jar -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 176840 Aug 21 01:34 /usr/lib/libjss4.so drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 0 Aug 21 01:34 /usr/share/doc/jss-4.2.6 -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 25755 Dec 14 2008 /usr/share/doc/jss-4.2.6/MPL-1.1.txt -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 17987 Dec 14 2008 /usr/share/doc/jss-4.2.6/gpl.txt -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 4680 Apr 25 2004 /usr/share/doc/jss-4.2.6/jss.html -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 26436 Dec 14 2008 /usr/share/doc/jss-4.2.6/lgpl.txt However, in an effort to obtain more detailed information in this area, I am cc'ing Andrew Haley of the Open JDK community for any known security/performance issues regarding the use of "System.loadLibrary()" versus "System.load()". -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug. _______________________________________________ Fedora-package-review mailing list Fedora-package-review@xxxxxxxxxx http://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-package-review
