Hi Jim,

I added build-dev to the cc as this is of general interest. Actually before doing this a heads-up should go out to all jdk8-dev I think.

One question: are there any cross-compilation issues with building this? I'm assuming not but want to check.

Okay two questions :) : do you know when this will get modularized and show up in the jigsaw repositories?

Thanks,
David

This is just a heads up that we are in the process of adding
http://asm.ow2.org/

to jdk 8 as a new top level repo. This new repo contains the asm source
code, with a few mods that are needed to build/run it in our
environment. The new repo also contains the build files needed to
participate in our forest builds. The main building is done by the asm
build.xml, with a Makefile wrapper around that in order to participate
in the forest build. This Makefile dynamically renames the asm packages
by prepending 'org.openjdk'.

The forest build handles the asm repo in the same was as the other
repos, eg, corba. The asm repo is built just after langtools, and then
the resulting .class files are known in the jdk build and are put into
rt.jar.

The changes for this are:
- These files are modified/added:
M Makefile
M make/Defs-internal.gmk
M make/README.pre-components
A make/asm-rules.gmk
M make/jdk-rules.gmk
M make/sanity-rules.gmk
M make/scripts/hgforest.sh

- the new asm repo is built just after langtools

- these files in the jdk repo are modified/added:
M THIRD_PARTY_README
M make/Makefile
M make/common/Release.gmk
M make/common/internal/ImportComponents.gmk
M make/common/shared/Defs-control.gmk
M make/common/shared/Defs.gmk
M make/common/shared/Sanity-Settings.gmk
A make/common/internal/Defs-asm.gmk
A test/org/openjdk/org/objectweb/asm/OmitCommons.java
A test/org/openjdk/org/objectweb/asm/OmitOptimizer.java
A test/org/openjdk/org/objectweb/asm/OmitTreeAnalysis.java
A test/org/openjdk/org/objectweb/asm/OmitUtil.java
A test/org/openjdk/org/objectweb/asm/OmitXml.java
A test/org/openjdk/org/objectweb/asm/RequiredAsmClasses.java

These changes have not been reviewed and thus are subject to change.
Hopefully, this work can be finished in the next couple weeks. But where
have we heard that before.

Please let me know if you have any questions or need more info.
