Hi serviceability folks,
I'm in the process of removing Thread.destroy() and
Thread.stop(Throwable) from the Java SE API. Alan and David have
pointed out that there are some cross-references to
Thread.stop(Throwable) in the JDWP and JVMTI specs, as well as in the
JDI ThreadReference API. I've adjusted the relevant files.
See please review this updated webrev:
http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~smarks/reviews/8204243/webrev.1/
Have you considered removing the "What about Thread.stop(Throwable)"
section completely from the threadPrimitiveDeprecation doc? A new
developer reading the javadoc in 2019 shouldn't need to read about a
removed method.
Otherwise I think this looks good, including the updates to the JDWP and
JVM TI specs.
