RFR (XL) 8081519 Split globals.hpp to factor out the Flag class (original) (raw)

Hi Gerard,

Scanning through this it seems okay.

Like Coleen I'm wondering why so many "flag" using .cpp files don't include jvmFlag.hpp? I expect they transitively included globals.hpp previously but now will need an explicit include.

The two new files have a slight formatting error with their copyright, you need a comma after 2018.

The include guards for all the relocated header files and the new files eg:

25 #ifndef SHARE_VM_RUNTIME_JVMFLAG_HPP

need updating now you added the extra directory.

Bikeshed: I'm not sure about calling the directory jvmFlags. First everything under src/hotspot is "jvm" so it is somewhat redundant to state that. Second you end up with jvmFlag/jvmFlag*.* which is more redundancy. I think runtime/flags would suffice.

Thanks, David

Hi all,

Please review this large and tedious (sorry), but simple fix that accomplishes the following: #1 factor out the command option flag related APIs out of globals.hpp/.cpp into its own dedicated files, i.e. jvmFlag.hpp/.cpp #2 moved all jvmFlag* files into its own dedicated folder (i.e. src/hotspot/share/runtime/jvmFlag/) #3 merge Flag (too generic name) and CommandLineFlag classes and rename them as JVMFlag #4 cleanup globals.hpp includes originally added by the JEP-245 Note: the renamed file retain their history, but one needs to add “follow” flag, ex. “hg log -f file” https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8081519 http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~gziemski/8081519rev2 Passes Mach5 hstier1-tier5, jtreg/runtime/CommandLine/OptionsValidation/TestOptionsWithRanges tests.
