[eclipse.org-architecture-council] Fwd: Eclipse heads-up

[Ivar Grimstad <ivar.grimstad@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi all,

For your awareness, here is a change in the JDK that may impact some of our projects. I suspect it may be something to look into at least for the IDE, EclipseLink, GlassFish, others?

Not sure how to handle it, or even if the Arch Council is the right place.

Hi Ivar,

To prevent deadlocks, we're planning to remove from the JDK a legacy
parallel class loading workaround for custom class loaders not
registered as parallel capable (see JDK-8295848). We'd like to know if
Eclipse doesn't depend on that legacy workaround and understand if its
custom class loaders using non-hierarchical class delegation model are
parallel-capable.

Thanks,
