Description Konstantin Komissarchik CLA 2006-06-06 12:33:12 EDT
ArchiveManifestImpl's algorithm for breaking up lines longer than 72 bytes should be revised to avoid breaking in a middle of a double-byte character. Note that this is not a correctness issue as breaking in a middle of a double-byte character is perfectly legal according to the spec and presents no problems to manifest consumers. Breaking only on character boundaries is intended to improve readability of manifest.mf files in text editors.
