Re: adding additional numbers to the Java version string

Hi Erik, Thanks for the response. I created: https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8207849 (infrastructure/build is the right component for this, right?) and I’ll post a webrev soon. Tony — Tony Printezis | @TonyPrintezis | tprinte...@twitter.com On July 19, 2018 at 9:53:42 AM

RFR: 8207849: Allow the addition of more number to the Java version string (S)

allow up to 3 extra numbers was arbitrary. I can do more or fewer. Tony — Tony Printezis | @TonyPrintezis | tprinte...@twitter.com

Re: adding additional numbers to the Java version string

string satisfies that too. Other folks might want this to behave differently, and that’s totally OK! But, the change I proposed will help anyone who has the above requirement. Tony — Tony Printezis | @TonyPrintezis | tprinte...@twitter.com On July 19, 2018 at 1:30:40 PM, Martin Buchholz

it’s used. Is it worth also exposing VERSION_NUMBER_ALL_POSITIONS? I didn’t to make sure that anything that relies on VERSION_NUMBER_FOUR_POSITIONS having exactly four numbers didn’t break (and I’m happy to leave it as is). Tony — Tony Printezis | @TonyPrintezis | tprinte...@twitter.com On Ju

Thanks for the explanation. So I think I’ll just leave it as is. New webrev: http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~tonyp/8207849/webrev.1/ The only new changes are in the spec.gmk.in file. Tony — Tony Printezis | @TonyPrintezis | tprinte...@twitter.com On July 19, 2018 at 4:01:14 PM, Erik
