Makefiles for JPDA component in jdktools pass the following include

However, default build for working_vm creates DRLVM build in a
platform dependent directory:

 <…>\trunk\working_vm\build\win_ia32_msvc_debug\deploy\jdk\include

That's why header files from DRLVM were not found in my build. Do you
have DRLVM build in a platform independent directory?


Yes.  (This feature has now been there for months...)

There's a flag "deploy.canonical.flag" that you can specify on the command line or more commonly, put in the

  build/drlvm.properties

file which has the output go into the directory that you noted above (deploy/...)

I made the mistake of not defaulting that flag to true, which I will fix now. If you don't like it, turn it off. :)

We could fix makefiles to look into platform dependent DRLVM build
directory or look into VM sources (working_vm\vm\include). But, since
JNI/JVMTI headers are VM-independent, it's better to get them from
classlib, not from DRLVM.

Yes, we know.  That's why we moved them there.

But the "canonical deploy directory" feature of the DRLVM build made everything work.

Again, the problem was that the flag wasn't set to do this by default, but it will going forward.


However, now we have similar header files in classlib and DRLVM
sources and need to synchronize them in case of any changes. I still
think it's better to move these headers to common_resources/include
and use the same headers in both classlib and DRLVM builds.


We were planning to get them out of DRLVM , but your idea is a good one. I'd like to see more things move to common_resources, if that makes sense.

No worries - thanks for doing it.

Yes, there's no argument there - we need one copy.  I'll go now and
clean up anything that depends on it, then remove the DRLVM copies.

I just wanted to figure out why Ivan thought he couldn't build w/o this
change.

Yep
