Hello,
With the JDK 11 and 12 split fast approaching [1], it is time to work on
the various start of release update tasks for JDK 12. Those tasks are
being tracked under the umbrella bug JDK-8205615: "Start of release
updates for JDK 12".
This thread is to review the build-related portions of the work
including JDK-8205621: "Increment JDK version for JDK 12." Current webrev:
http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~darcy/8205615.4/
make/autoconf/version-numbers
If we're going to ensure we bump the version and classfile version
together then we should be able to restore:
DEFAULT_VERSION_CLASSFILE_MAJOR=56 # "`$EXPR $DEFAULT_VERSION_FEATURE +
44`"
to just:
DEFAULT_VERSION_CLASSFILE_MAJOR="`$EXPR $DEFAULT_VERSION_FEATURE + 44`"
Possibly we could also set:
DEFAULT_ACCEPTABLE_BOOT_VERSIONS
to use DEFAULT_VERSION_FEATURE, DEFAULT_VERSION_FEATURE-1
DEFAULT_VERSION_FEATURE-2 ? If that is our boot JDK policy. Or will we
drop 10 at some point in the process?

make/common/SetupJavaCompilers.gmk
Again if we're bumping everything en-masse can we use
DEFAULT_VERSION_FEATURE instead of hard-wiring 12?
And should these be using --release instead of -source + -target?

Thanks,
David
A handful of test failures still need to be addressed, so there will be
some minor adjustments to the aggregate set of changes before they are
pushed.
Cheers,
