Sub Tasks

Description
The index.html file for the JVMTI demos is missing from Java 6 releases.

The file contains essential information for using the JVMTI demos, and is still referenced in other files in the Java 6 JVMTI demo tree. For example, the file

   $JAVA_HOME/demo/jvmti/gctest/README.txt

contains the following text:

   "See ${JAVA_HOME}/demo/jvmti/index.html for help running and
    building agents".

The file is present in 5.0 releases, so we presume this is a simple packaging error that needs to be corrected for future Java 6 releases.

The copy of the index file was part of the build rule, when separated as a separate rule the dependency was missed.
See suggested fix.

EVALUATION

The file disappeared in 6.0-b28, most probably after the fix for 5070715 when fastdebug builds were introduced. Dispatching this change request to the build team.
