Sorry for the delay on this Sean, I owe you a reply. I'll try to get to 
this in the next few days.

Hi all,

   I checked with java8, this problem still exists; and I checked the 
patch, it is still working.
The bug was filed with id 7023713 for java7, and the patch is here. 
So, would anyone like to
take a look at it again? Thanks.

    Hi,
       I find that HttpCookie.domainMatches("hostname.local",
    "hostname") returns false, which may be a bug.
       According to spec, the effective host name of "hostname" is
    "hostname.local", which is string
    exactly the same with the first parameter. Thus the method should
    return true for this invocation.

       I attached the simple testcase here:
    // Testcase
    import java.net.HttpCookie;

    public class DomainMatchTest{

       public static void main(String args[]){
          // "true" should be printed, but get "false".
         
    System.out.println(HttpCookie.domainMatches("hostname.local",
    "hostname"));
       }

    }
    // End of testcase

    Any comments?
