Re: Warning, bad Java

Worst of all, the whole JNLP bloat doesn't seem
to offer many ways the break a deadlock.

For example through decompiling I find:

package com.sun.deploy.util;

public class SyncAccess {

     [...]
     private void acquireLock(int var1, int var2) {
         Object var3 = this.syncObj;
         synchronized(this.syncObj) {
             while((this.lockedOP & var1) != 0) {
                 try {
                     this.syncObj.wait();
                 } catch (InterruptedException var6) {
                     ;
                 }
             }

             this.lockedOP |= var2;
         }
     }
     [...]

}

So basically an InterruptedException will just
be swallowed by the above code.

Making it impossible to write some supervisor that
gracefully stops a hanging code.

P.S.: The package com.sun.corba.se.impl.orbutil.concurrent;
looks slightly better, but I don't know why they need a
notify after a catch, we find throughout the following idiom:

    try {
       [...]
    } catch (InterruptedException ex) {
       notify();
       throw ex;
    }

I don't think the notify() is needed, since there is no
state change.

If the notify() is not needed the whole try/catch is not
needed, and they could just add the exception to the
method signature.
