[jira] Commented: (FELIX-837) Setting the SecurityManager in a bundle generate an infinite loop

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FELIX-837?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12651364#action_12651364 ] 

Loris Bouzonnet commented on FELIX-837:
---------------------------------------

Thank you Karl to consider my request.
I recognize that's not a good idea of specifying a security manager inside a bundle, but it's needed to support legacy codes :-(
I'm going to try the 2nd workaround (I need URLHandlers).

> Since Felix 1.4.0, each method invocation is now check in the class SecureAction. When we DON'T set the security manager as argument of the command line and a started bundle tries to set this one, we always get an infinite loop:

> 	at sun.security.provider.PolicyFile$3.run(PolicyFile.java:676)

> ... until a stack overflow.
> To reproduce it, just start the attached bundle that does:
> System.setSecurityManager(new RMISecurityManager());
> URL wantBug = new URL("http://felix.apache.org");
> System.out.println("I want a bug: " + wantBug.toExternalForm());
> If the security manager is set in the command line, there is no bug.
