Hello,
First on the build front, the -source/-target used in the bootstrap
build of langtools was stuck at 9; in the change I'm proposing to update
it to 13, the minimum boot JDK:
--- old/make/autoconf/boot-jdk.m4 2019-12-04 19:16:42.209000999 -0800
+++ new/make/autoconf/boot-jdk.m4 2019-12-04 19:16:41.925000999 -0800

# When compiling code to be executed by the Boot JDK, force
compatibility with the
# oldest supported bootjdk.
- BOOT_JDK_SOURCETARGET="-source 9 -target 9"
+ BOOT_JDK_SOURCETARGET="-source 13 -target 13"
AC_SUBST(BOOT_JDK_SOURCETARGET)
AC_SUBST(JAVAC_FLAGS)
This should get added to the list of files updated when the boot JDK is
revved.
On the javax.lang.model front, with the changes for records pushed into
JDK 14 there is now a ElementScanner14 class and I think it is time to
address
JDK-8224630: ElementScannerN, N > 9 should scan type parameters
http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~darcy/8224630.0/
CSR: https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8235371
As the bug title implies, the existing scanner classes don't touch type
parameters, which is arguably a bug. The scanners mostly touch enclosed
elements, but they do also touch method/constructor parameters which are
not considered to be enclosed elements.
In its current form, the webrev relies on the test previously added for
RoundEnvironment. However, I acknowledge it would be possible to add
tests for this particular change.
Thanks,
-Joe
