I've always been strongly opposed to "every platform should have its own
implementation", since it tends to violate DRY for insufficient
justification. I would (heretically!) like Java more if there were more
facilities for writing a single source file targeting slightly different
platforms.
ifeq ($(OPENJDK_TARGET_OS_API),posix)
- UPSUFFIX:=$(OPENJDK_TARGET_OS)
- ifeq ($(OPENJDK_TARGET_OS),macosx)
- UPSUFFIX:=bsd
+ UPSUFFIX:=posix
+ ifeq ($(OPENJDK_TARGET_OS),solaris)
+ UPSUFFIX:=solaris
endif
I'm inclined to structure things as in the other makefile
if solaris
solaris code here...
else
general unix code here ...
endif
