Hello all; Currently the parameter passed to configure --with-bootjdk-jvmargs is ignored. This changeset improves(*) the handling of the args.
http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~mduigou/JDK-8036079/0/webrev/ I also cleaned up the defaults slightly to better capture the intent of the tests. ie. check for host OS build bits rather than specific platforms. JAVA_FLAGS in the spec.gmk.in was previously defined by AC_SUBST from the BOOT_JDK_JVMARGS value. It is now AC_SUBST from JAVA_FLAGS though both JAVA_FLAGS and BOOT_JDK_JVMARGS currently have the same value. (*) It is reasonable to debate whether defaults applied by the configure script should be inserted in BOOTJDK_SETUP_BOOT_JDK_ARGUMENTS as JVM flags. The heap maximum size and stack size will hopefully be revisited via JDK-8007327 Mike
