[jira] [Commented] (DERBY-6629) Restrict privileged operation in CreateXMLFile

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DERBY-6629?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=14041553#comment-14041553 ] 

Bryan Pendleton commented on DERBY-6629:
----------------------------------------

Seems perfectly reasonable to me. I suspect I just called the internal method
from the test code without really giving it any thought. Going through the
public interface is far superior.

> The PlanExporter tool has a public method CreateXMLFile.writeTheXMLFile(). This method opens a FileOutputStream in a privileged block. We should change this so that unprivileged code cannot use the method to write files using derbytools.jar's privileges.
