Hello Jan,

The assignment of a non existent directory looks suspect. You should be able assign to an empty value using ?=. On the other hand, what it looks like you want to achieve is having both the open and closed value on the command line. Then I would just change the ?= to +=.

Hi,

To support --release 11 in JDK 12, historical data for JDK 11 need to be added. As new attributes (NestHost and NestMembers) have been added to the classfile, there also needs to be some tweaking of the tool that creates the historical descriptions and the ct.sym sigfiles.

The proposed patch has two parts:
-code changes, which include:
--update to the build scripts and the tool, so that the tool can read both the open and extra/closed description of the ct.sym content, and merge those (there should not be any extra/closed for JDK 11, AFAIK, so this is to avoid having to update the closed part). --improving the description on how to add historical data for new releases, using the new source launcher
--adding support for the new NestHost/NestMembers attributes
--adding a new test which strives to fail when a new attribute is added and CreateSymbols is not updated

-addition of the historical data:

(these may need to be re-generated when the final JDK 11 is released in case there are any changes, but that should be very simple)

Any feedback is welcome,
