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    20           the tool has been superceded by new features in javac,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