Webrev here:
http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~phh/7117389/
This webrev defines and uses, but does not implement, a switch extension
interface.
I've added a new file, globals_ext.hpp, that contains hooks for
vendor-specific additions
to the set of Hotspot command line switches and added their use to
globals.hpp,
globals.cpp and globals_extension.hpp. I chose "_ext" as a generic
suffix for files
containing extension hooks. In effect, such files are interface
definitions. A vendor
supplies a file, perhaps of the same name in another source base (as can
be seen in
the Hotspot makefiles), that implements the extension hooks.
Thanks,
Paul
