The webrev is here:

This defines the JAVAC_MAX_WARNINGS and JAVAC_WARNINGS_FATAL variables in a variety of Makefiles within the jdk repository. This essentially adds -Xlint:all -Werror to the javac command lines, so that henceforth if any lint warnings are introduced, the build will fail.

I'm applying these flags only to build steps that are already warnings free. (Last week's warnings cleanup effort cleared warnings from four build steps, in addition to knocking off a couple thousand warnings across the build.) I've applied this change and have built successfully on all platforms.

With this change, 57 of the 93 javac build steps in the jdk repo are now lint warning free, and are protected from the introduction of new errors through the use of -Werror.

Thanks,

Stuart - the changes look okay to me but it would be good to get confirmation that you've done both full and partial builds with these changes. Also I think we need confirmation that incremental builds in each of these areas isn't impacted. My concern is implicit compilation where compiling code in warning free areas may compile code in areas that are not warning free yet. Sasha did great work over the summer and part of his approach was to make warnings fatal in the errors that he cleaned up. On a couple of occasions we ran into issues where implicit compilation caused code in areas with warnings to be compiled. Such issues are usually quick to fix but I'm sure you get my concern.
