Hello,

The comment has not been updated after the dependencies changed.

Please use $(MKDIR), $(RM) -f and $(LN).

There is no need for the dash before rm since rm -f won't fail and we haven't used it like that before in these makefiles.

Please don't remove the assembly dir after zipping. In general, we keep intermediate files around for easier debugging of the build.

I can't seem to find your name on the OCA list [1], have you signed it? Otherwise we cannot accept
patches from you.

As Andrew wrote down @redhat.com should do the job.
Good to know!

I can comment and review the patch from a build point of view. There is a separate processes for
approving it for inclusion in an older release, like JDK 8.

I'm aware of it. Once you are happy , I will use the patch in 8's rpms, and rpepare webrev for 9. Later, if luck allows, I will ask for backporting to 8.
Note that the change for 9 will be quite different. The makefiles have evolved quite a bit.

That said, your patch is mostly reasonable but there are a few things that needs changing.

Thank you very much for review and advices!

In Main.gmk.
* Please follow the current pattern of declaring both "zip-docs" and "zip-docs-only" and make zip-docs depend on docs. Dependencies between top level targets should be handled in the top level
makefile.

Done. Although Now I'm a bit unsure about the dependencies, as described lower (*).

In Javadock.gmk.
* Please use := instead of = for variable declarations. This particular file unfortunately has many
bad examples of where = is misused.

Fixed. I can fix the file as separate changeset for jdk9 if you agree.

No need. I would rather rewrite this old clunky piece of makefile completely than waste time on patching it. It's one of the rare files we never fully converted to the new style of makefiles in JDK 8.
* The file should be named jdk-$(FULL_VERSION)-docs.zip
done

Although now it have date. However not-nice, definitely reasonable.
Right, for adhoc default configured builds, they do. This can be overridden on the configure command line using --with-user-release-suffix.

* The file should be created in $(OUTPUT_ROOT)/bundles

Done.

* Having the archive only depend on COREAPI_INDEX_FILE is broken if you also include the other docs. Either depend on all and include all or only include the core docs. If you only include the core docs, the targets and file names should probably change. Depending on all is currently tricky since Javadock.gmk is badly written and uses a lot of phony targets instead of the actual targets for
dependency management. That would need to be fixed.

Well yes:( (*)

I'm aware of the brokenness of it, but what to depend on?
I wonted to avoid any other configuration, so whatever make docs generates, this target will pack. But I stumbled over (now clear) bug in Javadock.gmk. - any time make docs (make docs-only seems broken) is invoked, it always regenerate all javadocs.

So by calling make zip-docs, with dependencies you recommended, it causes javadoc to be regenerated.


It seems to me out of scope of this patch, but if you feel differently, I will happily elaborate.

Yes, dependencies here are broken. I don't expect you to fix it in this patch. It's rare that people build docs incrementally so it hasn't been a priority to fix. For now, I suppose you can add back the COREAPI_INDEX_FILE so that the zip is rebuilt if the coreapi docs were rebuilt, but with a comment that dependencies are actually broken and this is just a reasonable workaround. At least ordering is properly handled in Main.gmk now.

* Please don't use temporary directories outside the build output dir. Such directories always risk being left behind by failed builds. We need the build to only create files in the designated output
dir.

fixed.

* --display-globaldots is not a good option to use in this context. It won't work well with file logging of the build and I doubt it's valid for all platforms we build on.

sure.   Removed.


Thanx!
  J.

Hello Again!

Sorry for delay in reply.

There is webrev

https://jvanek.fedorapeople.org/oracle/jdk8/webrevs/zip-javadocs/v1/
https://jvanek.fedorapeople.org/oracle/jdk8/webrevs/zip-javadocs/v1/webrev.zip

with patch as was (moreover) agreed in this thread for *jdk8*

As I was studying the makefiles, I think I did not violated to much conditions by this hunk of code:) I thought that 8 will be much more simple, but at the end it evolved to same "find all roots" as
discussed for 9 and modules.

The only thing I don't like in this patch is unsuitability of zip to zip directories with stripped
path.

I went by pushd/popd  but I had seen you like cd in  make files more.


Thanx for any feedback!

Or is this going to be considered closed-wont "fix"?

I must be missing something. Dozens? Of varius runs of javadoc?

I thought that javadoc ending at the end in single drectory is one single javadoc for java. If you are referring to javadoc generated by "per module" then one jjoined zip is enough for me.


Jiri,

If you accept the premise that javadoc writes one stylesheet.css file per run of javadoc,
take a
look at the following list:

Then my goal will be to crate a trget, which takes
build/linux-x86_64-normal-server-release/images/docs/
and pack it to
 build/linux-x86_64-normal-server-release/images/javadoc.zip

It should contains also the "smaller api" you are mentioning below? If not, then those should
appear in this zip too.

$ find build/linux-x86_64-normal-server-release/images/docs/ -name stylesheet.css build/linux-x86_64-normal-server-release/images/docs/jdk/api/dynalink/stylesheet.css build/linux-x86_64-normal-server-release/images/docs/jdk/api/attach/spec/stylesheet.css build/linux-x86_64-normal-server-release/images/docs/jdk/api/javac/tree/stylesheet.css build/linux-x86_64-normal-server-release/images/docs/jdk/api/jconsole/spec/stylesheet.css build/linux-x86_64-normal-server-release/images/docs/jdk/api/jpda/jdi/stylesheet.css build/linux-x86_64-normal-server-release/images/docs/jdk/api/javadoc/doclet/stylesheet.css build/linux-x86_64-normal-server-release/images/docs/jdk/api/javadoc/old/doclet/stylesheet.css build/linux-x86_64-normal-server-release/images/docs/jdk/api/javadoc/old/taglet/stylesheet.css build/linux-x86_64-normal-server-release/images/docs/jdk/api/nashorn/stylesheet.css build/linux-x86_64-normal-server-release/images/docs/api/stylesheet.css build/linux-x86_64-normal-server-release/images/docs/jre/api/nio/sctp/spec/stylesheet.css build/linux-x86_64-normal-server-release/images/docs/jre/api/plugin/dom/stylesheet.css build/linux-x86_64-normal-server-release/images/docs/jre/api/security/jaas/spec/stylesheet.css build/linux-x86_64-normal-server-release/images/docs/jre/api/security/smartcardio/spec/stylesheet.css

The "main"/"Java SE" javadoc bundle that most are aware of is the shortest filename, in the
middle
of the list, but there are lots of other smaller APIs that get their own doc bundle. You can
get at
most of them in released doc sets through the top-level "brick wall" page, or by using your
favorite
search engine.

Hmm.. Do you have some? javadoc offline search is quite painful think. (Even with new search in 9, which seems to have some troubles on local filesystem). The best search engine I know is
(unluckily) https://github.com/judovana/JavadocOfflineSearch

The point of the preceding list was to say that each directory containing stylesheet.css is the
root
of a separate, distinct, javadoc bundle. So the smaller APIs that get their own bundle are precisely the ones given in the preceding list, other than the main javadoc bundle.

The point of the comment about the brick wall and search engines was to indicate how most people will find these doc bundles in normal use, when they don't have a cheat sheet like the list
above.

yes I got that. But Then this compressed shattered javadoc needs more thoughts.

What is expected format of distribution?
I can imagine: web accessible, unapcked "all docs" and "zipepd "all docs".
But never several zips, or several directories.

What is what I'm missing behind this effort to deliver javadocs per-module?


As far as IDEs wanting to access javadoc bundles, I would expect that to make all the docs available, you would want to zip up *each* directory containing stylesheet.css given in the preceding list. If you just zip up the top API directory, sure, that will include all the files,
but
the reality is that the IDE will likely not have any way of knowing about the minor doc
bundles in
all jre/ and jdk/ directories and subdirectories.

Indeed, when you pack top level javadoc directroy as top level of archive (so javadco will become zipped1.zip!javadoc) then indeed, Netbeasn refuse to load it whole 9just few parts)

However when you pack it that content of javadoc will be the top of the archive
(zipped2.zip!{api,jdk,jre,platform}) then NB loads it fine.

If even this is wrong, then as last approach is really to restructuralise docs after theirs generation/before zipping to structure where top level directory will the "one with style"

dynalink/stylesheet.css
spec/stylesheet.css
tree/stylesheet.css
spec/stylesheet.css
jdi/stylesheet.css
doclet/stylesheet.css
nashorn/stylesheet.css
api/stylesheet.css
spec/stylesheet.css
dom/stylesheet.css
spec/stylesheet.css
spec/stylesheet.css
...

But looking to the occurences of "spec" There is something wrong with those assumptions :)


As for indexing and viewing tools - They works fine with both zipepd1 and zipped2 (but there is
not
much to try)

Seeing the impact of packaging, I think it is one more +1 to add this packing target, so JDK's
javadoc is pacaked in known, "laodable" way.

Thanx!
   J.
