Hi all,

I reported a bug(rrf) to request that OSInfo class recognizes AIX platform. As we know there are more platforms supporting java than platforms supported by openjdk. So I think OSInfo can add the feature to recognize these platforms. This patch uses AIX as an example. The bug link is: http://bugs.sun.com/bugdatabase/viewbug.do?bugid=7119285 And the patch link is: http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~zhouyx/7119285/webrev.00/ There was a previous discussion related[1], and I think it would be better to break the patch up. Would anyone have a look ?

[1] previous discussion links http://mail.openjdk.java.net/pipermail/swing-dev/2011-October/001795.html http://mail.openjdk.java.net/pipermail/swing-dev/2011-November/001847.html

As a matter of interest, can someone with suitable powers look into why the bug mentioned above (7119285) is not publically viewable ?

Thanks, Neil
