Could you point me to this subset of entry points?
I know no more than you. I've been following along on potted summaries of the case, much less than the transcripts.
But given the (debatable) nature of what constitutes "the Java API", whether you divide it up according to AWT .v. Swing .v. other; or server-side .v. client-side; or Java v1 .v. v2 (v3,v4,v5); etc., those 37 packages constitute a subset of 166 packages that (currently) make up the 'the full Java API (set)'.
There are also 3 specific functions that are cited:
- The rangeCheck method in TimSort.java and ComparableTimSort.Java
- Source code in seven “Impl.java” files and the one “ACL” file
- The English-language comments in CodeSourceTest.java and CollectionCertStoreParametersTest.java
With the rise and rise of 'Social' network sites: 'Computers are making people easier to use everyday'
Examine what is said, not who speaks -- Silence betokens consent -- Love the truth but pardon error.
"Science is about questioning the status quo. Questioning authority".
In the absence of evidence, opinion is indistinguishable from prejudice.
