JAVA updates from Oracle for CCB 2.3.1 / 2.4.0 for Java 1.6 and for older CCB java 1.5.0

So I found something interesting, even though Java 1.6.0.x and Java 1.5.0.x has reached it end of life cycle, (Oracle is pushing version 1.7.0.x latest is build 65) but as part of my oracle support, Oracle does release security updates for Java 1.6 and 1.5.

The current version of Java 1.6 is 1.6.0_81         (now 2017-11-11    1.6.0_171)
 (last available version via regular oracle web site was _45)

The current version of Java 1.5 is 1.5.0_71       
 (last available version via regular oracle web site was _22)

Patch numbers on my oracle support are : for Java 1.6 #9553040
                                                                    for Java 1.5 #9477224



now 2017-11-11 Oracle is pushing version 1.7.0.x latest is build 161

yip I know ... waiting for the next oracle support release _72.

Do you know if the issue is fixed with _71 ?


I know that _65 has issues with threadpoolworker and genappvieweritems on Linux.
