EVALUATION Now that the URL has been fixed, I was able to run the test case and verify that it is working in the current build.

EVALUATION The sun.misc.ExtensionInfo should be fixed, but the test case appears to be broken. When I try that URL now, it begins to initialize the applet and then complains about the URL http://sqindia.india.sun.com/disk13/deployment/raghu//Standalone_deployment_plugin_2006_07_26_17_34_53/Admin.Windows_XP.x86/StdExtn/testbase/optpkgs/classes/TestPureInstaller.jar not being found. I used a browser to verify that this URL indeed gives a 404 error. Please clarify.
