Fwd: Re: Review request: 8003562: Provide a command-line tool to find static dependenciesh

[Mandy Chung]

Ulf,

I actually prefer the current way, a separate implementation of the 
process method for each option rather than having a single big switch on 
enum constants.   I wrote my implementation of the handleOptions method 
(the previous version is copied from JavapTask) [1].   That also 
addresses the bug you found when an empty parameter is passed to the 
last option.  I'm happy with this version and hope you are.

As for the -R vs -r option, '-r' was initially used as "--reverse" which 
is gone now and I could use it.  I prefer not to make change in the 
interface for the initial push as I am waiting for CCC approval (I 
believe the process we have about compatibility).  I expect the jdeps 
tool will evolve after getting feedback.   I'll look at that together 
with other potential enhancements after the initial push.

Happy Holidays and Happy New Year!
Mandy
