EVALUATION The behavior of the standard file manager returned by javax.tools.JavaCompiler.getStandardFileManager must be clarified either by amending the specification of that method or the interface javax.tools.StandardJavaFileManager. The specification must clarify the behavior of not only the file manger but also the file objects returned by that file manager. At least the following topics should be covered: * the format of URIs returned from these objects * the behavior of methods like delete, getLastModified, etc.
