Hi David , thanks for forwarding to build-dev + your comments . May I add you as reviewer?
New webrev : http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~mbaesken/webrevs/8224214.2/ -adjusted the copyright year in make/autoconf/toolchain.m4 -removed the comment as suggested by you > But that said, if __IBMCPP__ is no longer defined then it seems a fix is > needed in ./share/runtime/vm_version.cpp as well. -removed __IBMCPP__ from share/runtime/vm_version.cpp (more a cleanup than something that is really needed) ; reason is that xlc16/xlclang++ comes with a very rich set of compiler - macros, especially the "usual" clang and GNUC macros are all set ; see : $fgrep GNUC xclangplus.txt #define __GNUC_MINOR__ 2 #define __GNUC_PATCHLEVEL__ 1 #define __GNUC_STDC_INLINE__ 1 #define __GNUC__ 4 $ fgrep clang xclangplus.txt #define __clang__ 1 #define __clang_major__ 4 #define __clang_minor__ 0 #define __clang_patchlevel__ 1 #define __clang_version__ "4.0.1 (tags/RELEASE_401/final)" $ fgrep __VERSION__ xclangplus.txt #define __VERSION__ "IBM XL C/C++ for AIX, Version 16.1.0.1" So we would run into the clang -case in vm_version.cpp and there use the __VERSION__ info that is pretty good IMHO .
