Just thought I'd send a heads up that there is a large set of changes
in the pipeline for the mobile/dev repos. I thought about posting a webrev
but it's so large that it's hard to use for review purposes. Also, we
don't typically
review merges, just individual fixes.
The main reason for the delay in getting this changeset pushed was the wave
of build changes taking place in the mainstream. To highlight a few
- hotspot makefiles have been redone in the style of the other jdk
makefiles
This required migrating a number of the ios and android checks
into the new files.
- a new buildjdk pass has been added that handles the jmod, jlink,
etc. packaging tools.
This caused some confusion in cross compile builds.
There are a few more smoke tests to be performed, but the push should
happen once those platforms are confirmed to work.
