Hi Ioi, The change looks pretty clean. The new src/share/vm/classfile/systemDictionary_ext.hpp and src/share/vm/classfile/vmSymbols_ext.hpp do not have copyright header. Please add the copyright headers. Please also fix the copyright year for the modified files prior to pushing.
In src/share/vm/classfile/sharedPathsMiscInfo.hpp, is the new “#include “classify/classLoader.hpp” necessary? I agree with the comments from Colleen and Karen regarding the usage of new_permanent_symbol() and TempNewSymbol in classLoaderExt.cpp. It doesn’t seem to be consistent.
