    1.37 +<b>BEGIN WARNING</b>: At this time (Spring/Summer 2010) JDK 7 is starting a transition to
    1.38 +use the newest VS2010 Microsoft compilers. These build instructions are updated
    1.39 +to show where we are going. We have a QA process to go through before
    1.40 +official builds actually use VS2010. So for now, official builds are
    1.41 +still using VS2003. No other compilers are known to build the entire JDK,
    1.42 +including non-open portions.
    1.43 +So for now you should be able to build with either VS2003 or VS2010.
    1.44 +We do not guarantee that VS2008 will work, although there is sufficient
    1.45 +makefile support to make at least basic JDK builds plausible.
    1.46 +Visual Studio 2010 Express compilers are likely to be able to build all the
    1.47 +"open" sources, with only small adjustments, but this has yet to be made
    1.48 +to work. Also we have not yet seen the 7.1 Windows SDK with the 64 bit
