test/tools/javah/compareTest/README
|
|
|
|
This directory contains a program for comparing the output of new javah against the
|
|
output of JDK 6 or other older versions of javah.
|
|
|
|
It cannot be run automatically because of the need for the older version of javah
|
|
to compare against.
|
|
|
|
The test works by scanning a jar file, such as rt.jar, looking for all files with
|
|
native methods. It then runs both the old and new versions of javah on those
|
|
classes with native methods, and verifies that the results are character-for-character
|
|
identical.
|
|
|
|
To run the test, build langtools, then execute the script in the root langtools
|
|
directory, providing the location of the JDK to be tested. The default is
|
|
/opt/jdk/1.6.0.
