Yes. I was hoping that would be rather clearly documented... Any way, my plan is to make a clear separate directory `import-libs` or something like that, so we can clearly separate import libraries from "proper" static libraries, which is not really done right now. I think and hope that after I'm done, everything will be much clearer, so whatever changes you need to do are obvious and simple. ------------- PR Comment: https://git.openjdk.org/jdk/pull/18649#issuecomment-2056641541
