Re: Unix domain sockets (UDS, AF_UNIX) in System.inheritedChannel() and elsewhere in Java + [JDK-8231187] + [JDK-8231358]

Hi Franta, I have filed https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8231358 to cover the general case of support for UNIX domain sockets. I think we should fix this bug independent of that though. The test case you supplied incl. native launcher was useful for this. So, thanks for that. The change

Hello Chris, Alan & all. Thank you for your discussions with František and thanks for outlining various directions to move his inquiry forward. > You will need to find a sponsor Right. I feel motivated to help, as I talked František into contributing rather than hacking around the problems he

Unix domain sockets (UDS, AF_UNIX) in System.inheritedChannel() and elsewhere in Java

Hello, I am interested in the unix domain sockets (UDS, AF_UNIX) support in Java. Java is able to inherit a channel from the parent process and access it through System.inheritedChannel(). The channel is passed as an open file descriptor (FD) to Java form the parent process which is usually so
