PersistenceService.create() doesn't throw IOException for dup. entry

Name: aaR10142 Date: 02/12/2001



The jnlp javadoc says:
"
public long create(java.net.URL url,
                   long maxsize)
            throws java.net.MalformedURLException,
                   java.io.IOException
....

Throws:
          java.io.IOException - if an I/O exception occurs,
          or the entry already exists.
          ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
"

The create mathod does not throw IOException when application, call it to
times with the same URL(try to create entry that already exists).

See example
