I should have said: "only the client jvm was _attempted_ to be combined". In
fact, the client does not exist, but the universalize makefiles are written to
handle client if it did exist.
So what happened was:
- the product jvm was built
- it was copied to the import jdk (into jre/lib/amd64/server/) by the
generic_export target
- the universalize makefile tried to take the client jvm and universalize it
into jre/lib/client/ (notice that there is no amd64 directory level on mac)
- the universalize makefile removes all {amd64,i386} directories
What should have happened:
- the product jvm was built
- it was copied to the import jdk (into jre/lib/amd64/server/) by the
generic_export target
- the universalize makefile makes a universal binary of any existing jvms
(client or server)
- the universalize makefile copies these jvms into jre/lib/{server,client}
- the universalize makefile removes all {amd64,i386} directories
But because the targets weren't .PHONY, the third step above failed.
I hope that explains the problem in more detail. Who wants to be put down as
reviewer?
