Hi,
Please review this enhancement that prints a deprecation message for the
product flags we have aliased to UL options. We wanted to mimic the GC
deprecation messages as seen in arguments.cpp, e.g.
log_warning(gc)("-XX:+PrintGCDetails is deprecated. Will use
-Xlog:gc* instead.");
I have logged our deprecation messages to a new tag 'arguments' at the
'warning' level (warning-level logging is always printed, without having
to be directly specified in the command line).
Basic sample output:
$ java -XX:+TraceMonitorInflation -version
[0.001s][warning][arguments] -XX:+TraceMonitorInflation is
deprecated. Will use -Xlog:monitorinflation=debug instead.
...
Sample output with "-"/"off" and multiple tags:
$ java -XX:-TraceClassLoadingPreorder -version
[0.001s][warning][arguments] -XX:-TraceClassLoadingPreorder is
deprecated. Will use -Xlog:classload,preorder=off instead.
...
Bug: https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8145235
Open webrev: http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~rprotacio/8145235/
Tested locally for robustness w.r.t. multi-tag tagsets, multiple aliased
flags, etc.
Thank you,
Rachel
