Hotspot - kind of build and how to detect?

[Mani Sarkar]

Hi all again,

I did some searching in the OpenJDK folders and found the below notations:

*$(CONF_NAME)* in the below line in one of the make files:
@$(PRINTF) "Building $(PRODUCT_NAME) for target '$(call GetRealTarget)' in
configuration '$(CONF_NAME)'\n\n"

And the below from another one:
*$(OSNAME)_$(BUILDARCH)_compiler2*
*$(OUTPUTDIR)/$(VM_PLATFORM)_compiler2*

How could we parse these outside the make file to get some value that I
could use (provided we have run configure). Do these flags expect other
flags to be set before they can be parsed?

Thanks.

Cheers,
mani
