Mercurial > jdk8-mips64-public / file revision

 README:

   This file should be located at the top of the OpenJDK Mercurial repository

   forest. This top or enclosing repository will include a "make" directory,

   and a Makefile at the very top of the repository.

   It should also include the 6 repositories: "jdk", "hotspot", "langtools",

   "corba", "jaxws"  and "jaxp".

   See http://openjdk.java.net/ for more information about the OpenJDK.

 Simple Build Instructions:

   1. Download and install a JDK 6 from

      http://java.sun.com/javase/downloads/index.jsp

      Set the environment variable ALT_BOOTDIR to the location of this JDK 6.

   2. Download and install the Binary Plugs for the most recent JDK7 from

      http://download.java.net/openjdk/jdk7/

      Set the environment variable ALT_BINARY_PLUGS_PATH to the location of

      these binary plugs.

   3. Check the sanity of doing a build with the current machine:

        gnumake sanity

      See README-builds.html if you run into problems.

   4. Do a complete build of the jdk:

        gnumake all

      The resulting JDK image should be found in build/*/j2sdk-image

 where gnumake is GNU make 3.81 or newer, /usr/bin/make on Linux and

 /usr/sfw/bin/gmake or /opt/sfw/bin/gmake on Solaris.
