1 README:
2 This file should be located at the top of the OpenJDK Mercurial repository
3 forest. This top or enclosing repository will include a "make" directory,
4 and a Makefile at the very top of the repository.
5 It should also include the 6 repositories: "jdk", "hotspot", "langtools",
6 "corba", "jaxws" and "jaxp".
8 See http://openjdk.java.net/ for more information about the OpenJDK.
10 Simple Build Instructions:
12 1. Download and install a JDK 6 from
13 http://java.sun.com/javase/downloads/index.jsp
14 Set the environment variable ALT_BOOTDIR to the location of this JDK 6.
16 2. Download and install the Binary Plugs for the most recent JDK7 from
17 http://download.java.net/openjdk/jdk7/
18 Set the environment variable ALT_BINARY_PLUGS_PATH to the location of
19 these binary plugs.
21 3. Check the sanity of doing a build with the current machine:
22 gnumake sanity
23 See README-builds.html if you run into problems.
25 4. Do a complete build of the jdk:
26 gnumake all
27 The resulting JDK image should be found in build/*/j2sdk-image
29 where gnumake is GNU make 3.78.1 or newer, /usr/bin/make on Linux and
30 /usr/sfw/bin/gmake or /opt/sfw/bin/gmake on Solaris.
