Description
In order to support pre-Vista versions of Windows, several Win32 API functions, viz., FindFirstStreamW(), FindNextStreamW(), CreateSymbolicLinkW(), and GetFinalPathNameByHandleW(), had to be loaded dynamically by first obtaining the kernel32 module handle from GetModuleHandleExW() and then using this handle to obtain the addresses of the functions. This is no longer necessary in the versions of Windows required by JDK 8 onward, so the Win32 API functions should be able to be used directly without resorting to dynamic lookup.
