Hi,
i am looking for a sponsor of this issue.
The bug is here:
http://bugs.sun.com/view_bug.do?bug_id=7025238
First i verified that the problem still exists. Then i checked the
problem against some other web servers. Apache handles a missing "/" in
the path. Tomcat, Microsoft-HTTPAPI/2.0 and the openjdk build in http
server behave with same response: 400 Bad Request.
I checked the URL specification but could not see any problem with empty
path. The HTTP/1.1 specification is there a bit more detailed. So i
checked HttpURLconnection.java and HttpClient.java where i found the
problem. If the path/file from url.getFile() is null or empty, a "/" is
used but not if the url.getFile() returns only a query string. In that
case the path is empty and should have also a "/".
A webrev can be found here (to be discussed, i am still new to openjdk):
http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~arieber/7025238/webrev.00/
To write the jtreg test and run them all took longer than the fix ;-) I
did run jtreg on: |test/java/net, | |test/sun/net, | |test/java/security
and | |test/sun/security but sure i don't have all relevant platfo||rms.|
thanks
Andreas
