Hello, after recent adjustments of src/hotspot/share/trace/traceEventClasses.xsl in jdk/hs ( see 8196337: Add commit methods that take all event properties as argument ) the AIX build fails.
The xlC compiler is not happy with using TraceEvent::commit; in traceEventClasses.xsl (looks like correct C++ but xlc 12.1 refuses to compile ). Error messages : /nightly/output-jdk-hs/hotspot/variant-server/gensrc/tracefiles/traceEventClasses.hpp", line 226.9: 1540-1113 (S) The class template name "TraceEvent" must be followed by a < in this context. Bug : https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8200246 Adding the template parameter to TraceEvent makes xlc happy too. http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~mbaesken/webrevs/8200246/ Are you fine with this change ? Best regards, Matthias
