The following code works correctly in jdk 1.0.2. In other
words, when no floppy is in the a: drive, an exception
is thrown. However, in 1.1.7 this causes a blocking
dialog to be displayed! This dialog, which presents
abort, retry, and ignore buttons, should not be displayed.

import java.io.*;
public class TestFloppy
{
    public static void main(String args[])
    {
        try
        {
            FileInputStream fis = new FileInputStream("a:");
            fis.close();
        }
        catch (Exception e)
        {
            e.printStackTrace();
        }
    }
}
