Thanks Erik agree with you, the changes from JDK11 you mentioned is very similar to what I propose and that will serve the purpose.
However the patch for the second part is related to locating jvmti.html, VM's like openj9 has it's own html specs file in different location hence we need extension to set it appropriately. # Get jvmti.html from the main jvm variant (all variants' jvmti.html are identical). -JVMTI_HTML := $(HOTSPOT_OUTPUTDIR)/variant-$(JVM_VARIANT_MAIN)/gensrc/jvmtifiles/jvmti.html -$(eval $(call SetupCopyFiles, COPY_JVMTI_HTML, \ - FILES := $(JVMTI_HTML), \ - DEST := $(DOCS_OUTPUTDIR)/specs, \ -)) -JDK_SPECS_TARGETS += $(COPY_JVMTI_HTML) +JVMTI_HTML ?= $(HOTSPOT_OUTPUTDIR)/variant-$(JVM_VARIANT_MAIN)/gensrc/jvmtifiles/jvmti.html +$(eval $(call SetupCopyFiles, COPY_JVMTI_HTML, \ + FILES := $(JVMTI_HTML), \ + DEST := $(DOCS_OUTPUTDIR)/specs, \ +)) +JDK_SPECS_TARGETS += $(COPY_JVMTI_HTML) Thanks and Regards Archana Nogriya From: Erik Joelsson <erik.joels...@oracle.com> To: Archana Nogriya <archana.nogr...@uk.ibm.com> Cc: build-dev@openjdk.java.net, David Holmes <david.hol...@oracle.com> Date: 27/04/2018 18:05 Subject: Re: Extensionality Improvement in Main.gmk & Docs.gmk to generate docs Looking at this again, the first part, in Main.gmk, has already been addressed in https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8198425. The patch for the second part looks weird. The only real change I can see is the ?= for the jvmti.html file. The rest looks like there is no difference (and I cannot think of any change needed there either). /Erik On 2018-04-27 02:12, Archana Nogriya wrote: Thanks Erik, It will be great if you can sponsor for this contribution please.
