Hi Kumar,

A few minor comments ...

src/share/classes/com/sun/tools/jdi/SunCommandLineLauncher.java

Seems to me this is all dead now:

  199                 /*
  200                  * A wrinkle in the environment:
  201                  * 64-bit executables are stored under 
$JAVA_HOME/bin/os_arch
  202                  * 32-bit executables are stored under $JAVA_HOME/bin
  203                  */
  204                 String os_arch = System.getProperty("os.arch");

os_arch is no longer used and the comment no longer applicable.

src/solaris/bin/java_md_solinux.c

This seems to force DUAL_MODE off regardless of what the user may set it to:

   #ifdef __solaris__
! #  ifdef DUAL_MODE
! #    undef DUAL_MODE
! #  endif

why doesn't it just not define DUAL_MODE?

test/demo/jvmti/DemoRun.java
test/sun/tools/jhat/HatRun.java

It isn't clear to me why you need to retain the d64 variable at all.

test/tools/launcher/ExecutionEnvironment.java

typo: appopriate


Thanks,
David
