But if you provided "my_filename<pid>.txt" you might be happy that pid became the actual pid? But that expansion only happens if you gave that exact filename, so it seems like a mistake. For users, a better pattern for optionally inserting the actual PID would be if it used %p like we do when -XX:OnError handling uses Arguments::copy_expand_pid(). There are a few dcmds that take names of files to create, so ideally all of these would support %p which lets you insert the PID. I expect we should go ahead with this change now, and consider a further update to enable all dcmds that take filenames to replace %p. ------------- PR Comment: https://git.openjdk.org/jdk/pull/19706#issuecomment-2172727518
