Staffan, 1. This is one more small step forward to remove wide variety of Exit0.java (and similar) programs from jdk tests.
I will not happen today, but I hope, sometimes in a future, all tests that launch a child process will do it the same way. 2. We have couple of old SA-JDI tests in jdk.hotspot.agent/test these tests have to be cleaned up and ported to JTREG, we need a framework to do it. 3. It's hard to debug JDI failures that comes from nightly without small standalone reproducer. Especially if emulator or slow hardware is involved. I use this class as a base for such reproducer, find it helpful, and would like to have it in the test library. -Dmitry On 2016-01-27 10:23, Staffan Larsen wrote: > Can you explain more?
