The OpenJDK build system does not support building when the source code resides on a path that contains a space. This requirement is documented in the build instructions but not enforced by the configure script.
This change adds an explicit checks to the wrapper `configure` script that fail the build if the source code to be built is located in a directory who's path contains a space character or the build path cannot be determined. This is a revival of the old patch in https://github.com/openjdk/jdk/pull/10477, created in collaboration between by @bondolo and myself. ------------- Commit messages: - 8294549: configure script should detect unsupported path Changes: https://git.openjdk.org/jdk/pull/16798/files Webrev: https://webrevs.openjdk.org/?repo=jdk&pr=16798&range=00 Issue: https://bugs.openjdk.org/browse/JDK-8294549 Stats: 15 lines in 2 files changed: 10 ins; 0 del; 5 mod Patch: https://git.openjdk.org/jdk/pull/16798.diff Fetch: git fetch https://git.openjdk.org/jdk.git pull/16798/head:pull/16798 PR: https://git.openjdk.org/jdk/pull/16798
