Hi
I am trying to fix the following error
$ make sanity
jdk/make/common/shared/Defs.gmk:563: *** "ERROR: Trouble with the absolute path
for OUTPUTDIR './bui
ld/windows-i586'". Stop.
and found the following code in jdk/make/common/shared/Defs-windows.gmk, line
109
define FullPath
$(if $(word 2,$1),$(shell $(CYGPATH_CMD) $1 2> $(DEV_NULL)),$(call
MixedPath,$(realpath $(subst ",,$1))))
endef
Can someone explain me what use case is covered by the $(word 2,$1) in the
previous statement?
The error "ERROR: Trouble with the absolute path for OUTPUTDIR" can be fixed by
replacing $(word 2,$1) by $(word 1,$1) but I cannot find a usage for the $(word
2,$1)
Francis
