[classlib]native codes layout question(was Re: [classlib][NIO|VMI]JNI
1.4 enhancement on ByteBuffer)
Seems no one objects this proposal:), so I'm going to implement the
JNI1.4 enhancement in nio module, i.e, provide patch to Harmony-578,
Because this implementation requires some native codes, so I probably
need to reintroduce hynio.dll(.so), but I have some questions.(Excuse me
about my ignorance on the native layout evolution).
At first, seems native codes will be separated into modules(I guess Oli
is working on?), so should I assume my native codes will be directly put
into nio modules, or still in native-src/win.IA32/nio directory? because
I'm used to provide a shell to move/svn add new files in the patch, so
it will be easier for me to know how others think about it.
And second, the native codes probably need portlib, so the portlib's
header file must be accessible, say, portsock.h, but now it has been
moved into luni/src/main/native/blabla, should I include one in my patch
so that nio module can have a copy? or the header file itself should be
put some other well known directory(deploy/build/include I guess)?

FYI, I've raised Harmony-646 and applied patch for this.

Yes, that sounds reasonable. From what I can see portsock.h is basically
pointless, since it just includes hysock.h. Your plan to replace
portsock.h with hysock.h sounds like the right thing to do here.

Oli, I tried to modify the luni/make/build.xml, and it successfully
copied the portsock.h, but I found I still cannot build my native codes.
So I looked inside the portsock.h, and found that all its content is
just to include another file: "../port/hysock.h", my native codes in
modules/nio/src/main/native cannot find "../port/hysock.h" so it fails.
I guess the reason why the luni natives still can build is all LUNI's
native codes are still located in native-src/luni, so they can found the
hysock.h in native-src/port.
Seems portsock.h is useless and confusable, so I suggest the steps below
to fix this problem:
1. svn delete portsock.h in luni
2. svn move hysock.h from native-src to luni
3. update all reference to portsock.h to hysock.h
4. rebuild
If no one objects, I'll raise a separated JIRA and provide patch

This is only a temporary step while the natives are still in native-src.
Once all the native code is
moved into the modules the default will be the deploy directory. In
fact, if you go to the prefs
module and type in "Ant build.native" it will build the prefs native
code and place the output
libs into the deploy directory. (ok, that's not strictly true - you need
to use
"Ant -Dmake.command=nmake build.native" because the modular scripts dont
pick up this
variable from /make/properties.xml yet, but this will be fixed in the
future.)

This is the mode of working that people should get used to, so that
if/when we have ./configure steps too they will still build the natives
the same way (i.e. rather than just typing (n)make).

If you want to rebuild all the natives in one go, you can still (currently)
go to the native-src directory and run ant. This will rebuild all the native
components.
Rebuilding a single component can also be done. For example, to rebuild
the hyluni.dll you would:
1. cd to native-src/<platform>/luni
2. set the HY_HDK environment variable to point to a directory where
you have a complete prebuilt HDK (which could be the deploy dir if you
have previously run a global build).
3. Run make/nmake. The hyluni.dll will be built against the libs already
in HY_HDK, and the generated dll will be placed into the
native-src/<platform>
directory, where you can then copy it wherever you want
Once the natives are all modularised (so native-src no longer exists) you
will be able to just go to the module you want and run "ant build.native"
(or some similarly name target) and the natives will be incrementally
rebuilt and automatically placed into your target directory.
Hope this helps,

Posted by LvJimmy，Jing <fi...@gmail.com>.
Hi Oliver:
I've seen the modularisation on native, that's great! :) But I have a
question here.
As I work on native before, I usually build the whole native code once,
and then make seperate modules alone, e.g., luni, or nio. It was easy to
enter directory luni and force build by "make" and create a new DLL/so file.
In this way it is easy to write codes and debug. However after
modularisation nowadays, as there are envionment variables in the makefile,
which are defined in the build.xml, I have no idea but build whole native
with ant, even after changing a single line.
So I turn to help for if there's an easy way to build single module
alone? Thanks!

I see, I can wait for your reference move:), it doesn't make sense to
let you move them again later.

Got it, I will try. Thank you very much, Oli!

It depends on whether you want to wait for what I'm doing or not :)
If you want to get the code out now, then you can temporarily put it
under native-src/win.IA32/nio and I will move it later as part of the
natives modularisation.
However, if you don't mind waiting a day or so I should be able to
submit my first patch to move the prefs natives. This ought to be enough
of an example for you to put your native code directly into
modules/nio/src/main/native.

At build time, the "copy.native.includes" target in luni/make/build.xml
is called - it copies a selection of the header files in
luni/src/main/native/include that need to be shared between modules into
the deploy/include directory. This is done with an explicit fileset in
luni/make/build.xml - if you need to have portsock.h added to the list
of shared header files, then this is the place to make that change. Just
add its filename to the list, and next time you build it will appear in
the deploy/include directory. Your nio code should include the headers
from the deploy/include dir, and *not* directly from the
luni/src/main/native/include dir.
I hope this makes more sense now - if it doesn't, please let me know. I
am in the process of writing up some documentation for the website on
the natives layout and where headers should go (and also how modules
should build against the HDK) - once that is complete it should all be a
lot clearer.
Regards,
Oliver
