Description
With JDK1.4.2_12 and higher release, we are seeing some unique problem for getResourceAsStream method. The issue is if one has a resource inside a jar file has spaces in the path we cannot access that resource. As seen in the attached example I have tried two methods and both of them have failed to yield any results. I have attached source code and other required jar file for your testing.

(See attached files: TestClassLoader.class, TestClassLoader.java and test.jar)

Command to run the test

java -classpath .;test.jar TestClassLoader

This issue is not present with 1.4.2_11, 1.5.0_10 AND 1.6.0

EVALUATION Re-opening this CR. Regression would seem to have occurred as a result of 4845728 fix. Several ParseUtil.encode statements are added. Without correct decoding in JarURLConnection class our testcase fails.
