I think --with-sdk-name sounds good. Just make sure to document it very clearly to minimize confusion between --with-sysroot --with-devkit and --with-tools-path. We are gathering quite a few related options here.

If this new option is used to set sysroot, then it should probably move closer to the sysroot setting, which is setup in BASIC_SETUP_DEVKIT. I realize you then need to find xcodebuild there already, using the TOOLCHAIN_PATH, but I think that's ok, since that tools is used specifically for finding a sysroot on mac.

Overall, I like where this is going.

I got successful builds on Friday. I'll make the above changes and post another 
iteration for review.

It looks to me like that we can remove the option in jdk9 since it was 
deprecated in 8. It's a noop anyway though so shouldn't interfere with your 
work.

I'm not sure if giving --with-sysroot an optional special format for macosx is 
the right way to go. It looks cleaner from one way, but also increases 
confusion I think. I prefer a special parameter, which helps setting sysroot as 
suggested.

If you need a synonym for SYSROOT in macosx, that seems fine to me.

Nobody should be using this any more, can I nuke it?

BASIC_DEPRECATED_ARG_ENABLE(macosx-runtime-support, macosx_runtime_support)

That hasn't done anything since JDK7, it was deprecated in 8 and shouldn't even 
be used in 8.

Now that my mind is fresher and I've had my coffee... (and someones poked me in 
the ribs ;)

MACOSX_SDK_PATH should be SDKROOT, which is what Apple uses when building via 
Xcode or xcodebuild, which would also promote that setting to the few remaining 
Xcode projects we have hanging around. We can use SYSROOT, but Apple's tools 
will just ignore it so I propose we add SDKROOT as a synonym for SYSROOT. 
Unfortunately the -F arguments still need to be absolute paths.

We can eliminate the hard coded ApplicationServices paths by including 
ApplicationServices instead of it's sub-frameworks (and adjust the source 
accordingly), but we can't do that for JavaVM as we absolutely do NOT want to 
link against JavaVM, only JNF and JRS.


We'll do something like:

# assuming SYSROOT="$with_sysroot" already
if test "x$OPENJDK_TARGET_OS" = xmacosx; then
if test ! -d "$SYSROOT"; then
   # SYSROOT is not a directory, check if it's a symbolic name for an Xcode SDK
   SYSROOT=`$(XCODEBUILD) -sdk "$SYSROOT" -version | grep '^Path: ' | sed 
's/Path: //'`
   if test ! -d "$SYSROOT"; then
     AC_MSG_ERROR([SYSROOT does not point to a valid path])
   fi
fi
SDKROOT=$SYSROOT
AC_SUBST(SDKROOT)
fi

This will eliminate any added configure arguments.

(14 hours of build system hacking makes for a very muddled mind...)

Hello David,

I like that you incorporate the existing sysroot settings for this. I wonder 
though, what is the difference between --with-macosx-sdk-path and 
--with-sysroot? Do we really need two parameters for this? If it's actually a 
sysroot, couldn't we replace all uses of this variable with just SYSROOT and 
keep it more generic?

I've changed the logic, I think for the better. I hijacked --with-sysroot, 
SYSROOT is set to the SDK path and I stuffed the -iframework argument alongside 
the -isysroot arg in SYSROOT_CFLAGS and it works very nicely. Now the only 
change that's peppered throughout the forest is adding $(MACOSX_SDK_PATH) to 
the hard coded JavaVM.framework and ApplicationServices.framework paths, not to 
mention everything gets -isysroot/-iframework and not just the parts that 
needed JavaVM or ApplicationServices. The added SYSROOT logic is Mac specific 
so other platforms should be unaffected, JPRT should tell otherwise if not...

I also added two configure args:
--with-macosx-sdk       name of Mac OS X SDK to build with, e.g., macosx10.7
                         [macosx]
--with-macosx-sdk-path  specify path of Mac OS X SDK to build with [probed]
