Hi!

Cross-posting this to both hotspot-dev and hotspot-runtime-dev to get more attention. Sorry.

Original mail conversation can be found here: http://mail.openjdk.java.net/pipermail/hotspot-dev/2018-March/030637.html

I need feedback to know how to continue.

Thanks, Leo

Thanks, Leo Hi! (again) I would like more feedback on my change. Thomas Stüfe has proposed some changes (including maybe rename os::fopenretain and/or possibly move it away from os). I feel it is vital to have a hotspot-wide wrapper function for fopen. More so if core libs can not fix the problem due to legacy concerns. In the long run all "open" operations ought to be handled by wrappers --- in my opinion. I need help to get a solution that is to your satisfaction; so please continue the discussion that Thomas Stüfe started! When we agree on a solution, I will also create a bug on core-libs to fix the TRUE on inherits system handles (or document the reason for why it ought to be TRUE). Thanks, Leo
