Hello, The changes in the public API have been approved, so let me continue the review process.
For your convenience: The bug: https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8047336 The fix: http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~pchelko/9/8047336/webrev.00/ Until now we've been discussing an abstract question of moving the properties to a different location and agreed that it's possible. Now it's time for an official code review. Could someone please make one? Also some feedback from the build team is still required. Could someone from the build team review this fix please? (The question is that I've made a separate explicit rule for flavormap.properties file. If I add it to COPY_PATTERNS than the solaris version get's copied on Mac. Is that a bug in the build system? Is my current solution good enough?) Thank you. With best regards. Petr.
