Hi,
may I have reviews and a sponsor for the following small improvement?
Bug: https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8155639
webrev:
http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~stuefe/webrevs/8155639-STEP-number-removal/webrev.00/webrev/
Basically, this change proposes to get rid of the hand-coded STEP numbers
in error reporting in favour of using the __LINE__ macro.
The hand-coded step numbers are a constant source or errors, as they need
to maintained in monotonous order and if they are not, error reporting
steps are just quietly swallowed.
Using the __LINE__ macro would be self-maintaining and thus much more
robust.
Thank you!
Thomas
