Hi Eric, thanks for the comment, I think I'll remove the macosx source file . Btw. is there already some test for jexec (a "fast grep" through the jdk tests did not show me much) ?

You can point directly to the unix source dir if you prefer too. No need to have dead logic for macosx in the makefile. /Erik On 2017-02-09 15:27, Baesken, Matthias wrote: I compared the jexec.c versions for macosx and unix ( jdk/src/java.base/macosx/native/launcher/jexec.c and jdk/src/java.base/unix/native/launcher/jexec.c ) And to me it looks like the unix version could be used for macosx too (just in case there is a need to reenable the build of jexec.c for macosx one day again).

I include core-libs-dev , can someone comment on jexec on macosx ? Currently jexec.c is not compiled for macosx (jdk9/10), see jdk/make/launcher/Launcher-java.base.gmk . It is just compiled on linux . So I wonder - is it ok to remove the macosx handling in the mentioned makefile jdk/make/launcher/Launcher-java.base.gmk for jexec ? >This will automatically look in all the directories where source files are >supposed to be and pick the most specific one if there are any with the same >name. >Since the share launcher dir contains more src files, you will need to leave >the INCLUDE_FILES := jexec.c this time. >From what I observe in the linux build log, just jexec.c is compiled into >jexec.o and then this single object is used to create the executable >("program") jexec. Other src files are not used in the compilation of jexec, so just using $(JDK_TOPDIR)/src/$(MODULE)/unix/native/launcher would be fine (as long as macosx can be dropped).

The bug https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8174242 has been created for this. When looking into it, I had some questions : http://hg.openjdk.java.net/jdk10/jdk10/jdk/file/ae7afa9abe67/make/launcher/Launcher-java.base.gmk The makefile (make/launcher/Launcher-java.base.gmk ) handles Solaris 32bit, but is this really supported in jdk 9 or 10 ( I think it was removed in 9 and only 64bit Solaris support remains ) ? We do not support 32bit Solaris. The issue with jexec for Solaris was raised a while back and the conclusion was to scrap support, so no need to build it for Solaris at all. ifeq ($(OPENJDK_TARGET_OS), solaris) ifeq ($(OPENJDK_TARGET_CPU_BITS), 32) BUILD_JEXEC := 1 endif endif ifeq ($(OPENJDK_TARGET_OS), linux) BUILD_JEXEC := 1 endif # OPENJDK_TARGET_OS # # jdk/make/java/jexec/Makefile # ifeq ($(BUILD_JEXEC), 1) Then there is handling for macosx left , but the build is not enabled for macosx, does it still make sense to include the macosx handling (there is even a separate jexec.c for macosx) : This is indeed weird. I don't think we ever built jexec for macosx so the source file should likely be removed. That is however a question for core-libs I think. The makefile logic shouldn't need to be that specific though. Our modern pattern for this is something like this: SRC := $(call uniq, $(wildcard \ $(JDK_TOPDIR)/src/$(MODULE)/$(OPENJDK_TARGET_OS)/native/launcher \ $(JDK_TOPDIR)/src/$(MODULE)/$(OPENJDK_TARGET_OS_TYPE)/native/launcher \ $(JDK_TOPDIR)/src/$(MODULE)/share/native/launcher)) This will automatically look in all the directories where source files are supposed to be and pick the most specific one if there are any with the same name. Since the share launcher dir contains more src files, you will need to leave the INCLUDE_FILES := jexec.c this time. For libraries, we have abstracted this construct in the macro FindSrcDirForLib (LibCommon.gmk) but we haven't done the same for launchers yet. /Erik ifeq ($(OPENJDK_TARGET_OS), windows) else ifeq ($(OPENJDK_TARGET_OS), macosx) BUILD_JEXEC_SRC := $(JDK_TOPDIR)/src/java.base/macosx/native/launcher else BUILD_JEXEC_SRC := $(JDK_TOPDIR)/src/java.base/unix/native/launcher endif Should I remove the solaris 32bit / macosx handling for jexec from make/launcher/Launcher-java.base.gmk ?
