Check the patch. I think it should be an improvement. Currently on Windows, the JarClassLoader makes URLs like: jar:file:c:\foo\bar.jar!/foo/bar.gif which is wrong; should be: jar:file:c:/foo/bar.jar!/foo/bar.gif
Created attachment 4810 [details] Suggested patch
Note that on JDK 1.4 on Windows, new File(new URI(currentURL.toExternalForm()) throws an exception because of the backslash. Disabling part of #20997 fix until this patch is applied.
Seems reasonable, applying
