More New I/O APIs for the Java Platform
This Project's mission is to produce the implementation of the (New) New I/O APIs being defined by JSR 203 as well as related work in the JDK.
The main "umbrella" RFEs for this work are:
- 4313887 New I/O: Improved filesystem interface
- 4640544 New I/O: Complete socket-channel functionality
- 4607272 New I/O: Support asynchronous I/O
This Project is sponsored by the OpenJDK Core Libraries Group.
Status
The bulk of the API and implementation was integrated into jdk7 b50 for M2. Work on the outstanding API and implementation issues will continue here and integrate into jdk7 in later builds (probably M4).
