Initial load
| duke@1 | 1 | Working on the "langtools" workspace using NetBeans. |
| duke@1 | 2 | |
| duke@1 | 3 | This directory (make/netbeans) contains NetBeans projects that |
| duke@1 | 4 | allow you to work on the various tools using the NetBeans IDE. |
| duke@1 | 5 | |
| duke@1 | 6 | NetBeans 5.0 or later is required and sufficient to use these |
| duke@1 | 7 | projects. This is different from other projects in OpenJDK, |
| duke@1 | 8 | which requires version 6.0 or later. |
| duke@1 | 9 | |
| duke@1 | 10 | The following projects are provided: |
| duke@1 | 11 | |
| duke@1 | 12 | compiler: for working on the compiler, javac |
| duke@1 | 13 | javadoc: for working on the documentation tool, javadoc |
| duke@1 | 14 | doclets: for working on the standard doclets used by the |
| duke@1 | 15 | documentation tool, javadoc |
| duke@1 | 16 | javah: for working on the C header tool, javah |
| duke@1 | 17 | javap: for working on the disassembler, javap |
| duke@1 | 18 | apt: for working on the annotation processing tool, apt. |
| duke@1 | 19 | Note that this is just provided for completeness; |
| duke@1 | 20 | the tool has been superceded by new features in javac, |
| duke@1 | 21 | and work on apt itself is discouraged. |
| duke@1 | 22 | |
| duke@1 | 23 | However, any tool can be worked on from any project; the only difference |
| duke@1 | 24 | between these projects is the behavior of the standard NetBeans actions, |
| duke@1 | 25 | so that "Build" in the compiler project will build the compiler, etc. |
