Re: RFR: JDK-8219988: Change to Visual Studio 2017 15.9.6 for building on Windows at Oracle
Erik: This change bumps the Windows devkit version used for Oracle internal builds of the JDK to one based on Visual Studio 2017 15.9.6. In the generator script, I removed the conditionals around subsections to force the script to always generate the full kit. I've also made it a bit more automatic in finding internal version numbers/directories as well as added those version numbers in the devkit.info file. The old generator script for 2013 and 2015 are hardly relevant anymore so removing those. Bug: https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8219988 Webrev: http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~erikj/8219988/webrev.01/index.html Looks good. Tim
