Previously, I used a shell script to extract modification date ranges
from the Git history, but that was complicated and unreliable, so now
every file just gets the same year range in its copyright header. If
someone needs to know when a specific file was modified and by whom,
they can look at the Git history themselves; no need to include it
redundantly in the header.
We were not properly converting dots to slashes internally for package names
and we did not properly handle Method.getAnnotations and
Method.getAnnotation(Class<T>) on methods without any annotations.
Added some tests to cover these cases.
This test covers the case where a local stack slot is first used to
store an object reference and later to store a subroutine return
address. Unfortunately, this confuses the VM's stack mapping code;
I'll be working on a fix for that next.
The new test requires generating bytecode from scratch, since there's
no reliable way to get javac to generate the code we want. Since we
already had primitive bytecode construction code in Proxy.java, I
factored it out so we can reuse it in Subroutine.java.
The biggest change in this commit is to split the system classloader
into two: one for boot classes (e.g. java.lang.*) and another for
application classes. This is necessary to make OpenJDK's security
checks happy.
The rest of the changes include bugfixes and additional JVM method
implementations in classpath-openjdk.cpp.
In order to facilitate making the VM compatible with multiple class
libraries, it's useful to separate the VM-specific representation of
these classes from the library implementations. This commit
introduces VMClass, VMField, and VMMethod for that purpose.
