Bug ID: JDK-8145561 �� jcheck for openjfx project

Type: Task
Component: javafx
Sub-Component: other

Priority: P3
Status: Closed
Resolution: Won't Fix

This task is an umbrella issue for turning on jcheck support for the openjfx forests.

We will eventually need to do this for all code lines (FX 2, FX 8, FX 9) so that we can enable hgupdater in all forests and get automatic updating of JBS issues, including automatic backport creation.

Specific enhancements and bugs will be linked to this issue.

With the impending move to git, we will use jcheck from the Project Skara tools. We have been using a modified version of hg jcheck locally for a couple of years now, and can continue to do so until the transition to git is complete.

I filed two new tasks to track the (already finished) modifications to jcheck itself: CODETOOLS-7902030 -- Modify jcheck to recognize FX version tags CODETOOLS-7902031 -- Modify jcheck to support a "start" date from which changesets are checked

The first step is to do the following for each mainline forest (starting with 9 and then 8u and finally 2u) * Ensure that the tip of each repo is "jcheck clean": - fix white space issues (DOS line endings, tabs, trailing whitespace) - fix file permission issues * Remove spurious tags * Make sure that there is only one branch We will also need enhancements to jcheck: * Alow a date to be specified such that all changesets prior to that date are ignored * Allow existing FX build tags
