(I thought we'd agreed on this - there were a few remaining cases,
I thought.)
I've grepped the sources and found very many places with em64t in
DRLVM and quite many of amd64 in classlib. I think I'll try to
clean the sources and build system completely of mentioning vendor
specific identifiers, so that all functions, interfaces and
constants could be reused in easily in any other code.
I meant in meaningful functional places where there would be external
visibility or behavior. I'll take a look too.
This is the question I was actually wanted to ask. Does it make
sense to
completely eliminate all traces of vendor specific platform names
like em64t
and amd64 from source and source file names? Grep with -i, there
are many
variations in the case.
I think so, but I would suggest we focus on where it's "mechanically
meaningful". For example, I used the classlib tokens rather than
drlvm tokens for this when doing jdktools...
I need to go see how pervasive it is, and where....
