APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• Error Message: The java.net.URI object returned by

Local fix

Problem summary

• The java.nio.file.Path.toUri() returns an incorrect URI for file
  paths comprising of multi-byte characters. The round-trip
  guarantee provided by the toUri() specification to the
  java.io.File class is violated.
  

Problem conclusion

• The related classes code has been updated to do the proper
  conversion in all the cases.
