Hi all ,
Whilst perusing the output from the command $ bash configure
--help, in
connection with enabling/disabling parts of the build, I notice the
use
of the terms FEATURE and PACKAGE but with little further information -
Aren't they "legacy" configure terminology?
I think so too. The help output from configure has a portion added by
autoconf, which is very general to configure scripts and may not
apply completely to the configure script in OpenJDK.
Indeed they are, and they are unfortunately not possible to modify. :-(
However, we can do some magic in the wrapper script to at least improve
the situation. I've been thinking about that before, and now at least I
opened a bug to track that idea:
