RFR: JDK-8029797: Let jprt run configure when building (original) (raw)

Hi Erik:

Please review this change for jdk9.

Until now, JPRT has used a rather hacky workaround when building using the new makefiles (build-infra). A special maketarget "bridgebuild" has been used to run configure and translate a select set of env variables to configure arguments. This limits the ability to change the configuration of jprt builds from the jprt command line. It also increases the difference between how a local build and a jprt build is done. JPRT was recently enhanced to support running configure and handling configure arguments for the build. Activating this feature requires some minor changes to the makefiles and jprt.properties. For jdk9, I chose to fully remove the bridgebuild support along with it. BUG: https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8029797 Webrev: http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~erikj/8029797/webrev.root.01/

Looks good-

/Tim
