Taking Flag out of globals.hpp/.cpp

[Gerard Ziemski]

hi all,

I’m working on https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8081519, which asks to factor out the Flag class into separate file, out of globals.hpp/.cpp

I’m thinking of merging the Flag and CommandLineFlags into one class and possibly naming that class JVMFlag (thanks Ioi).

The required changes look rather simple, but pervasive, so if anyone has an opinion on a different name, then please comment.


cheers
