Hi Carsten,

The fix looks good.
I share the Staffan's comments though.
If understand correctly, you do not have an openjdk author status yet.

I will sponsor your fix.
Please, let me know the bug ID after you create one.


Thanks,
Serguei


Please, let me know

Carsten,

This looks good with a few comments:

1) If you make the “verbose” variable into a static field, you can avoid the 
final-copying.
2) nit: Line 216: put "System.exit(1);” on it’s own line

Oh, and create a bug: https://bugs.openjdk.java.net

Thanks,
/Staffan

bug: ?

jvmtiGen is used to process a number of xml and xslt files in OpenJDK.
Currently jvmtiGen exits with exit code 0 regardless of its success. This
causes make to often consider a target finished when in fact the target
failed. It also leads to funny error checking after the execution of
jvmtiGen. For instance, in many trace.make files[*] a test for the
existence of the output file is carried out after the completion of
jvmtiGen. In a clean working repository that test is equivalent to jvmtiGen
exiting with a proper exit failure code on failure, but in a dirty working
repository the target file might just be pre-existing. This causes
unnecessary pain when working with files processed by jvmtiGen.

In this change I chose to exit with exit code 1 whenever a failure is
detected, be it a dtd validation failure, an IO failure, or something else
entirely. This halts the building of OpenJDK on failures and ultimately
makes development easier. I also added a verbose option such that warnings
from the xml parser and dtd checker can be printed on stderr if desired.
Finally, I changed all the error message printing to stderr. :-)

Let me know what you think.

BTW. This is the first time I tried the webrev system, so hopefully it all
looks good. I havn't figured out how to create a bug yet, whence the
question mark.

I wasn't sure if hotspot-runtime-dev is the right email alias. Please let
me know if there is a more appropriate alias for this email.

[*] Why are so many of the non-shared makefiles almost identical?
