I've reviewed the 12.0.x code and I didn't find anything of concern.
I've no reason to think 9.0.x-11.0.x would be any different given how
similar the code is.

Hello Mark,
Thank you for your answer.
It sounds like: "I'm sure, not to be sure". But this is ok. We are
also not
sure.
We must also check our codebase and make tests with JDK-25 and Tomcat and
all libraries, which have many IO operations.
I hope the recommendation is also for the current state of Tomcat 9
and 11.
It is.
Can I send your first answer to my Bug-Ticket JDK 8370216 ?
Please don't. I will add something to that ticket if Tomcat has anything
relevant to report.
Mark

Hello,
we have an issue with the JDK 25. The Bug-Fix JDK-8024695

JDK 25 is a breaking change for us. Because the function shows another
behavior now.
jdk-24 and below: new File("").exists() return false.
jdk-25: new File("").exists() return true, because "" is now the
current
working directory
Tomcat 9 to 11 have 150 code points where File.exists() is used.
Can this fix be a problem for Tomcat 9 up to 11, if any variable is an
empty string ?
Thanks for bringing this to our attention.
There might be a few edge cases - we'd need to check each usage - but
generally if there were going to be issues I'd expect to see them in the
tests and we know that the tests pass with Java 25.
I can't think of any place in the code where Tomcat would be subject to
the sort of regressions described in JDK-8024695. If anything, I'd think
it was more likely the old behaviour might have caused an issue rather
than the new.
I'll add doing a code review for this to my TODO list.
I have created a Bug-Ticket JDK-8370216, that is open for discussion. I

What is your view on this topic and the further development of Tomcat.
At this point it is probably a non-issue but we'll check just to make
sure.
Personally, I am in favour of the change made in Java 25.
Do you recommend JDK-25 for Tomcat 9 up to 11
Yes.
