FYI ---------- Forwarded message --------- From: <mark.reinhold(a)oracle.com&gt; Date: Thu, Apr 15, 2021 at 8:06 PM Subject: New candidate JEP: 411: Deprecate the Security Manager for Removal To: <sean.mullan(a)oracle.com&gt; Cc: <security-dev(a)openjdk.java.net&gt;, <jdk-dev(a)openjdk.java.net&gt; https://openjdk.java.net/jeps/411 Summary: Deprecate the Security Manager for removal in a future release. The Security Manager dates from Java 1.0. It has not been the primary means of securing client-side Java code for many years, and it has rarely been used to secure server-side code. To move Java forward, we intend to deprecate the Security Manager for removal in concert with the legacy Applet API (JEP 398). - Mark -- Richard Opalka Principal Software Engineer Red Hat JBoss Middleware Mobile: +420 731 186 942 E-mail: ropalka(a)redhat.com
