> This patch contains a set of changes to improve static builds. They will pave > the way for implementing a full static-only java launcher. The changes here > will: > > 1) Make sure non-exported symbols are made local in the static libraries. > This means that the risk of symbol conflict is the same for static libraries > as for dynamic libraries (i.e. in practice zero, as long as a consistent > naming scheme is used for exported functions). > > 2) Remove the work-arounds to exclude duplicated symbols. > > 3) Fix some code in hotspot and the JDK libraries that did not work properly > with a static java launcher. > > The latter fixes are copied from or inspired by the work done by @jianglizhou > and her team as part of the Project Leyden [Hermetic > Java](https://github.com/openjdk/leyden/tree/hermetic-java-runtime).
