Coming late to the party, as I see this has already been pushed. But
one thing caught my eye.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
42 else ifeq ($(call isBuildOs, macosx), true)
43 ADLC_LDFLAGS := -lc++
I'm surprised this is needed. I expected the C++ toolchain to
implicitly include that, the way g++ does.
If something like this really is needed, then it seems like it should
be ADLC_LIBS that should be modified, rather than ADLC_LDFLAGS.
Though I noticed there are currently no assignments to ADLC_LIBS.
I'm similarly surprised by this pre-existing bit in CoreLibraries.gmk:
$(eval $(call SetupJdkLibrary, BUILD_LIBJIMAGE, \
...
LIBS_unix := -ljvm -ldl $(LIBCXX), \
LIBS_macosx := -lc++, \
And that suggests a better place for all this (assuming its needed at
all) is in lib-std.m4, setting LIBCXX for macosx and using it where
needed.
