111 <h2><a name="hg">Use of Mercurial</a></h2>
112 <blockquote>
113 The OpenJDK sources are maintained with the revision control system
114 <a href="http://mercurial.selenic.com/wiki/Mercurial">Mercurial</a>.
115 If you are new to Mercurial, please see the
116 <a href="http://mercurial.selenic.com/wiki/BeginnersGuides">Beginner Guides</a>
117 or refer to the <a href=""http://hgbook.red-bean.com/">Mercurial Book</a>.
118 The first few chapters of the book provide an excellent overview of
119 Mercurial, what it is and how it works.
120 <br>
121 For using Mercurial with the OpenJDK refer to the
122 <a href=""http://openjdk.java.net/guide/repositories.html#installConfig">
123 Developer Guide: Installing and Configuring Mercurial</a>
124 section for more information.
125 The Forest Extension is not part of the Mercurial install,
126 and is optional,
127 but can be obtained with the following commands:
128 <blockquote>
129 <tt>
130 hg clone https://bitbucket.org/pmezard/hgforest-crew/overview/ <i>YourHgForest</i>
131 </tt>
132 </blockquote>
133 Once you have the file <tt>forest.py</tt>, you need to add these
134 lines to your <tt>${HOME}/.hgrc</tt> file:
135 <blockquote>
136 <tt>
137 [extensions]
138 <br>forest = <i>YourHgForest</i>/forest.py
139 </tt>
140 </blockquote>
141
142 <!-- ------------------------------------------------------ -->
143 <h3><a name="get_source">Getting the Source</a></h3>
144 <blockquote>
145 To get the entire set of OpenJDK Mercurial repositories
146 using the Forest Extension:
147 <blockquote>
148 <tt>
149 hg fclone http://openjdk.java.net/jdk7/jdk7 <i>YourOpenJDK</i>
150 </tt>
151 </blockquote>
152 To get the entire set of OpenJDK Mercurial repositories
153 without using the Forest Extension:
154 <blockquote>
155 <tt>
156 hg clone http://openjdk.java.net/jdk7/jdk7 <i>YourOpenJDK</i>
157 <br>cd <i>YourOpenJDK</i>
158 <br>sh ./get_source.sh
159 </tt>
160 </blockquote>
161 Once you have all the repositories, the
162 script <tt>make/scripts/hgforest.sh</tt>
163 can be used to repeat the same <tt>hg</tt>
164 command on every repository in the forest, e.g.
165 <blockquote>
166 <tt>
167 cd <i>YourOpenJDK</i>
168 <br>sh ./make/scripts/hgforest.sh pull -u
169 </tt>
170 </blockquote>
171 You may find this script <tt>make/scripts/hgforest.sh</tt> faster
172 than the <tt>hg</tt> forest commands provided by the
173 Forest Extension.

182 This file often describes specific requirements for what we call the
Kelly O'Haird03960122008-12-01 15:28:36 -0800[diff] [blame]183 "minimum build environments" (MBE) for this
184 specific release of the JDK,
Kelly O'Hairbf8a41a2008-04-30 19:35:26 -0700[diff] [blame]185 Building with the MBE will generate the most compatible
186 bits that install on, and run correctly on, the most variations
187 of the same base OS and hardware architecture.
188 These usually represent what is often called the
189 least common denominator platforms.
190 It is understood that most developers will NOT be using these
191 specific platforms, and in fact creating these specific platforms
192 may be difficult due to the age of some of this software.

Kelly O'Hairbf8a41a2008-04-30 19:35:26 -0700[diff] [blame]596 The Makefiles in the OpenJDK are only valid when used with the

600 <ul>
601 <li>
Kelly O'Haircec00df2010-12-18 18:28:31 -0800[diff] [blame]602 In general, you need GNU make version 3.81 or newer.
Kelly O'Hairbf8a41a2008-04-30 19:35:26 -0700[diff] [blame]603 </li>
604 <li>
605 Place the location of the GNU make binary in the <tt>PATH</tt>.
606 </li>
607 <li>
608 <strong>Linux:</strong>
609 The <tt>/usr/bin/make</tt> command should work fine for you.
610 </li>
611 <li>
612 <strong>Solaris:</strong>
613 Do NOT use <tt>/usr/bin/make</tt> on Solaris.
614 If your Solaris system has the software
615 from the Solaris Companion CD installed,
616 you should use <tt>gmake</tt>
617 which will be located in either the <tt>/opt/sfw/bin</tt> or
618 <tt>/usr/sfw/bin</tt> directory.
Kelly O'Hair634c79b2008-07-09 15:42:00 -0700[diff] [blame]619 In more recent versions of Solaris GNU make can be found
620 at <tt>/usr/bin/gmake</tt>.

623 <strong>Windows:</strong>
Kelly O'Hair4eb5fcb2009-10-28 13:44:30 -0700[diff] [blame]624 Make sure you start your build inside a bash/sh/ksh shell
625 and are using a <tt>make.exe</tt> utility built for that
626 environment (a cygwin <tt>make.exe</tt> is not the same

Kelly O'Hair634c79b2008-07-09 15:42:00 -0700[diff] [blame]631 not work due to a lack of support for MS-DOS drive letter paths

805 <h4><a name="paths">Windows Paths</a></h4>
806 <blockquote>
807 <strong>Windows:</strong>
808 Note that GNU make is a historic utility and is based very
809 heavily on shell scripting, so it does not tolerate the Windows habit
810 of having spaces in pathnames or the use of the <tt>\</tt>characters in pathnames.
811 Luckily on most Windows systems, you can use <tt>/</tt>instead of \, and
812 there is always a 'short' pathname without spaces for any path that
813 contains spaces.
814 Unfortunately, this short pathname can be somewhat dynamic and the
815 formula is difficult to explain.
816 You can use <tt>cygpath</tt> utility to map pathnames with spaces
817 or the <tt>\</tt>character into the <tt>C:/</tt> style of pathname
818 (called 'mixed'), e.g.
819 <tt>cygpath -s -m "<i>path</i>"</tt>.
820 <p>
Kelly O'Hair213481a2010-12-22 12:25:52 -0800[diff] [blame]821 The makefiles will try to translate any pathnames supplied
822 to it into the <tt>C:/</tt> style automatically.
Kelly O'Hairbf8a41a2008-04-30 19:35:26 -0700[diff] [blame]823 <p>
Kelly O'Hair213481a2010-12-22 12:25:52 -0800[diff] [blame]824 Note that use of CYGWIN creates a unique problem with regards to
825 setting <a href="#path"><tt>PATH</tt></a>. Normally on Windows
826 the <tt>PATH</tt> variable contains directories
827 separated with the ";" character (Solaris and Linux uses ":").
828 With CYGWIN, it uses ":", but that means that paths like "C:/path"
829 cannot be placed in the CYGWIN version of <tt>PATH</tt> and
830 instead CYGWIN uses something like <tt>/cygdrive/c/path</tt>
831 which CYGWIN understands, but only CYGWIN understands.
832 So be careful with paths on Windows.

875 Depending on the platform, the OpenJDK build process has some basic
876 dependencies on components not part of the OpenJDK sources.
877 Some of these are specific to a platform, some even specific to
878 an architecture.
879 Each dependency will have a set of ALT variables that can be set
880 to tell the makefiles where to locate the component.
881 In most cases setting these ALT variables may not be necessary

Kelly O'Hairbf8a41a2008-04-30 19:35:26 -0700[diff] [blame]940 for a better understanding of the Certificate Authority (CA).
941 A certificates file named "cacerts"
942 represents a system-wide keystore with CA certificates.
943 In JDK and JRE
944 binary bundles, the "cacerts" file contains root CA certificates from
945 several public CAs (e.g., VeriSign, Thawte, and Baltimore).
946 The source contain a cacerts file
947 without CA root certificates.
948 Formal JDK builders will need to secure
949 permission from each public CA and include the certificates into their
950 own custom cacerts file.
951 Failure to provide a populated cacerts file
952 will result in verification errors of a certificate chain during runtime.
953 The variable
954 <tt><a href="#ALT_CACERTS_FILE">ALT_CACERTS_FILE</a></tt>
955 can be used to override the default location of the
956 cacerts file that will get placed in your build.
957 By default an empty cacerts file is provided and that should be
958 fine for most JDK developers.

1051 use the newest VS2010 Microsoft compilers. These build instructions are updated
1052 to show where we are going. We have a QA process to go through before
1053 official builds actually use VS2010. So for now, official builds are
1054 still using VS2003. No other compilers are known to build the entire JDK,
1055 including non-open portions.
1056 So for now you should be able to build with either VS2003 or VS2010.
1057 We do not guarantee that VS2008 will work, although there is sufficient
1058 makefile support to make at least basic JDK builds plausible.
1059 Visual Studio 2010 Express compilers are now able to build all the
1060 open source repositories, but this is 32 bit only. To build 64 bit
1061 Windows binaries use the the 7.1 Windows SDK.<b>END WARNING.</b>
1062 <p>
1063 The 32-bit OpenJDK Windows build
1064 requires
1065 Microsoft Visual Studio C++ 2010 (VS2010) Professional
1066 Edition or Express compiler.
1067 The compiler and other tools are expected to reside
1068 in the location defined by the variable
1069 <tt>VS100COMNTOOLS</tt> which
1070 is set by the Microsoft Visual Studio installer.
1071 <p>
1072 Once the compiler is installed,
1073 it is recommended that you run <tt>VCVARS32.BAT</tt>
1074 to set the compiler environment variables
1075 <tt>INCLUDE</tt>,
1076 <tt>LIB</tt>, and
1077 <tt>PATH</tt>
1078 prior to building the
1079 OpenJDK.
1080 The above environment variables <b>MUST</b> be set.
1081 This compiler also contains the Windows SDK v 7.0a,
1082 which is an update to the Windows 7 SDK.

1084 <b>WARNING:</b> Make sure you check out the
1085 <a href="#cygwin">CYGWIN link.exe WARNING</a>.

1219 of "libasound"
1220 development package, it's highly recommended that you try and use
1221 the package provided by the particular version of Linux that
1222 you are using.

1224 missing or the wrong version.

1227 right version of ALSA installed, for example
1228 Redhat AS 2.1 U2 and SuSE 8.1 do not include a sufficiently
1229 recent ALSA distribution.
1230 On rpm-based systems, you can see if ALSA is installed by
1231 running this command:
Kelly O'Hairbf8a41a2008-04-30 19:35:26 -0700[diff] [blame]1232 <pre>
1233 <tt>rpm -qa | grep alsa</tt>
1234 </pre>
1235 Both <tt>alsa</tt> and <tt>alsa-devel</tt> packages are needed.
1236 <p>
Kelly O'Hair213481a2010-12-22 12:25:52 -0800[diff] [blame]1237 If your distribution does not come with ALSA, and you can't
1238 find ALSA packages built for your particular system,
1239 you can try to install the pre-built ALSA rpm packages from
1240 <a href="http://www.freshrpms.net/" target="_blank">
1241 <tt>www.freshrpms.net</tt></a>.
1242 Note that installing a newer ALSA could
1243 break sound output if an older version of ALSA was previously
1244 installed on the system, but it will enable JDK compilation.

1686 <blockquote>
1687 A build can fail for any number of reasons.
1688 Most failures
1689 are a result of trying to build in an environment in which all the
1690 pre-build requirements have not been met.
1691 The first step in
1692 troubleshooting a build failure is to recheck that you have satisfied
1693 all the pre-build requirements for your platform.
1694 Look for the check list of the platform you are building on in the
1695 <a href="#contents">Table of Contents</a>.
1696 <p>
Kelly O'Hair213481a2010-12-22 12:25:52 -0800[diff] [blame]1697 You can validate your build environment by using the <tt>sanity</tt>
1698 target.
1699 Any errors listed
1700 will stop the build from starting, and any warnings may result in
1701 a flawed product build.
1702 We strongly encourage you to evaluate every
1703 sanity check warning and fix it if required, before you proceed
1704 further with your build.

1740 These warnings can occur when the clock on the build machine is out of
1741 sync with the timestamps on the source files. Other errors, apparently
1742 unrelated but in fact caused by the clock skew, can occur along with
1743 the clock skew warnings. These secondary errors may tend to obscure the
1744 fact that the true root cause of the problem is an out-of-sync clock.
1745 For example, an out-of-sync clock has been known to cause an old
1746 version of javac to be used to compile some files, resulting in errors
1747 when the pre-1.4 compiler ran across the new <tt>assert</tt> keyword
1748 in the 1.4 source code.

Kelly O'Hair213481a2010-12-22 12:25:52 -0800[diff] [blame]1750 If you see these warnings, reset the clock on the build
