Yes, it looks trivial. You could even remove the class_loader argument
from this newly renamed function.
1192 // Load a class for boot loader from the shared spaces (found through
1193 // the shared system dictionary). Force the superclass and all
interfaces
1194 // to be loaded. Update the class definition to include sibling classes
1195 // and no subclasses (yet). [Classes in the shared space are not
part of
1196 // the object hierarchy until loaded.]
Can you add a space between super and class?
This code does update the Klass::_subklass and Klass::_next_sibling
lists, and then clears them at remove_unshareable_info. The comment
seems to say differently (or who knows what it says...)
I think the comment starting at "Update" doesn't make any sense to me,
isn't entirely accurate, and isn't interesting or helpful at this
point. I would remove it.
thanks,
Coleen
