Hi,
Where did the old debug builds of rt.jar go (meaning, rt.jar with
full debug symbols, even for local variables)? I scanned the mailing
list for a related discussion but couldn't find anything. It looks like
somewhere down the line a decision was made to remove these builds, but
it's not clear why that was. Also, out of curiosity, what is the
overhead of the full debug symbols (versus what we ship now)? Couldn't
we ship a full-debug rt.jar with the JDK and ship the smaller rt.jar
with the JRE?
Thanks,
Gili
