+ /** Only in INSTALL mode. Then NodeJava.write writes a <modified> element
+ which contains the seconds value of the TimeValue (osl/time.h), obtained
+ with osl_getSystemTime.
+ It returns 0 if the value cannot be obtained.
+ This is used to fix the problem that the modified time of the settings
+ file is incorrect because it resides on an NFS volume where the NFS
+ server and NFS client do not have the same system time. For example if
+ the server time is ahead of the client time then checkSettingsFileStatus
+ deleted the settings. So even if javaldx determined a Java
+ (jfw_findAndSelectJRE) then jfw_startVM returned a JFW_E_NO_SELECT. Then
+ it looked again for a java by calling jfw_findAndSelectJRE, which
+ returned a JFW_E_NONE. But the following jfw_startVM returned again
+ JFW_E_NO_SELECT. So it looped. (see issue i114509)
+
+ NFS server and NFS client should have the same time. It is common
+ practise to enforce this in networks. We actually should not work
+ around a malconfigured network. We must however, make sure that we do
+ not loop. Maybe a better approach is, that:
+ - assume that mtime and system time are reliable
+ - checkSettingsFile uses system time and mtime of the settings file,
+ instset of using getModifiedTime.
+ - allow a small error margin
+ - jfw_startVM must return a JFW_E_EXPIRED_SETTINGS
+ - XJavaVM::startVM should prevent the loop by processing the new return+ value
