        <blockquote>
            The OpenJDK sources are maintained with the revision control system
            <a href="http://mercurial.selenic.com/wiki/Mercurial">Mercurial</a>.
            If you are new to Mercurial, please see the
            <a href="http://mercurial.selenic.com/wiki/BeginnersGuides">Beginner Guides</a>
            or refer to the <a href=""http://hgbook.red-bean.com/">Mercurial Book</a>.
            The first few chapters of the book provide an excellent overview of
            Mercurial, what it is and how it works.
            <br>
            For using Mercurial with the OpenJDK refer to the
            <a href=""http://openjdk.java.net/guide/repositories.html#installConfig">
               Developer Guide: Installing and Configuring Mercurial</a>
            section for more information.
            The Forest Extension is not part of the Mercurial install,
            and is optional,
            but can be obtained with the following commands:
            <blockquote>
                <tt>
                    hg clone https://bitbucket.org/pmezard/hgforest-crew/overview/ <i>YourHgForest</i>
                </tt>
            </blockquote>
            Once you have the file <tt>forest.py</tt>, you need to add these
            lines to your <tt>${HOME}/.hgrc</tt> file:
            <blockquote>
                <tt>
                    [extensions]
                    <br>forest = <i>YourHgForest</i>/forest.py

            <blockquote>
                To get the entire set of OpenJDK Mercurial repositories
                using the Forest Extension:

                </blockquote>
                To get the entire set of OpenJDK Mercurial repositories
                without using the Forest Extension:
                <blockquote>
                    <tt>
                        hg clone http://openjdk.java.net/jdk7/jdk7 <i>YourOpenJDK</i>

                    </tt>
                </blockquote>
                Once you have all the repositories, the
                script <tt>make/scripts/hgforest.sh</tt>
                can be used to repeat the same <tt>hg</tt>
                command on every repository in the forest, e.g.
                <blockquote>
                    <tt>
                        cd <i>YourOpenJDK</i>
                        <br>sh ./make/scripts/hgforest.sh pull -u
                    </tt>
                </blockquote>
                You may find this script <tt>make/scripts/hgforest.sh</tt> faster
                than the <tt>hg</tt> forest commands provided by the
                Forest Extension.

        <blockquote>
            This file often describes specific requirements for what we call the
            "minimum build environments" (MBE) for this 
	    specific release of the JDK,
            Building with the MBE will generate the most compatible
            bits that install on, and run correctly on, the most variations
            of the same base OS and hardware architecture.
            These usually represent what is often called the
            least common denominator platforms.
            It is understood that most developers will NOT be using these 
            specific platforms, and in fact creating these specific platforms
            may be difficult due to the age of some of this software.
            <p>
                The minimum OS and C/C++ compiler versions needed for building the
                OpenJDK:

	    These same sources do indeed build on many more systems than the
	    above older generation systems, again the above is just a minimum.
            <p>
	    Compilation problems with newer or different C/C++ compilers is a
	    common problem.
	    Similarly, compilation problems related to changes to the

            Building the OpenJDK

            command line and various
            environment or make variable settings that direct the make rules
            to where various components have been installed.
            Where possible the makefiles will attempt to located the various
            components in the default locations or any component specific 
            variable settings.
            When the normal defaults fail or components cannot be found,
            the various
            <tt>ALT_*</tt> variables (alternates)
            can be used to help the makefiles locate components.

                <tt>jdk/make/jdk_generic_profile.sh</tt>

                    <strong>Solaris:</strong>
                    Do NOT use <tt>/usr/bin/make</tt> on Solaris.
                    If your Solaris system has the software
                    from the Solaris Companion CD installed, 
                    you should use <tt>gmake</tt>

                    <b>WARNING:</b> Watch out for make version 3.81, it may

        <h4><a name="paths">Windows Paths</a></h4>
        <blockquote>
            <strong>Windows:</strong>
            Note that GNU make is a historic utility and is based very
            heavily on shell scripting, so it does not tolerate the Windows habit
            of having spaces in pathnames or the use of the <tt>\</tt>characters in pathnames.
            Luckily on most Windows systems, you can use <tt>/</tt>instead of \, and
            there is always a 'short' pathname without spaces for any path that 
            contains spaces.
            Unfortunately, this short pathname can be somewhat dynamic and the
            formula is difficult to explain.
            You can use <tt>cygpath</tt> utility to map pathnames with spaces
            or the <tt>\</tt>character into the <tt>C:/</tt> style of pathname
            (called 'mixed'), e.g.
            <tt>cygpath -s -m "<i>path</i>"</tt>.
            <p>
                The makefiles will try to translate any pathnames supplied
                to it into the <tt>C:/</tt> style automatically.
            <p>
                Note that use of CYGWIN creates a unique problem with regards to
                setting <a href="#path"><tt>PATH</tt></a>. Normally on Windows
                the <tt>PATH</tt> variable contains directories
                separated with the ";" character (Solaris and Linux uses ":").
                With CYGWIN, it uses ":", but that means that paths like "C:/path"
                cannot be placed in the CYGWIN version  of <tt>PATH</tt> and
                instead CYGWIN uses something like <tt>/cygdrive/c/path</tt>
                which CYGWIN understands, but only CYGWIN understands.
                So be careful with paths on Windows.

            Depending on the platform, the OpenJDK build process has some basic
            dependencies on components not part of the OpenJDK sources.
            Some of these are specific to a platform, some even specific to
            an architecture.
            Each dependency will have a set of ALT variables that can be set
            to tell the makefiles where to locate the component.
            In most cases setting these ALT variables may not be necessary
            and the makefiles will find defaults on the system in standard
            install locations or through component specific variables.

                A certificates file named "cacerts"

                The source contain a cacerts file

                Formal JDK builders will need to secure

                cacerts file that will get placed in your build.
                By default an empty cacerts file is provided and that should be
                fine for most JDK developers.

                    <p>
                        <b>BEGIN WARNING</b>: At this time (Spring/Summer 2010) JDK 7 is starting a transition to
                        use the newest VS2010 Microsoft compilers. These build instructions are updated
                        to show where we are going. We have a QA process to go through before
                        official builds actually use VS2010. So for now, official builds are
                        still using VS2003. No other compilers are known to build the entire JDK,
                        including non-open portions.
                        So for now you should be able to build with either VS2003 or VS2010.
                        We do not guarantee that VS2008 will work, although there is sufficient
                        makefile support to make at least basic JDK builds plausible.
                        Visual Studio 2010 Express compilers are now able to build all the
                        open source repositories, but this is 32 bit only. To build 64 bit
                        Windows binaries use the the 7.1 Windows SDK.<b>END WARNING.</b>
                    <p>
                        The 32-bit OpenJDK Windows build

                        Edition or Express compiler.
                        The compiler and other tools are expected to reside
                        in the location defined by the variable
                        <tt>VS100COMNTOOLS</tt> which
                        is set by the Microsoft Visual Studio installer.
                    <p> 
                        Once the compiler is installed,
                        it is recommended that you run <tt>VCVARS32.BAT</tt>

                        The above environment variables <b>MUST</b> be set.
                        This compiler also contains the Windows SDK v 7.0a,
                        which is an update to the Windows 7 SDK.

                    For <b>X64</b>, builds, when using the VS2010 Professional
                    compiler, the 64 bit build set up is much the same as 32 bit
                    except that you run <tt>amd64\VCVARS64.BAT</tt>
                    to set the compiler environment variables.
                    Previously 64 bit builds had used the 64 bit compiler in
                    an unbundled Windows SDK but this is no longer necessary if
                    you have VS2010 Professional.

                For a free alternative for 64 bit builds, use the 7.1 SDK.
                Microsoft say that to set up your paths for this run
                <pre>
    c:\Program Files\Microsoft SDKs\Windows\v7.1\bin\setenv.cmd /x64.
                </pre>
                What was tested is just directly setting up LIB, INCLUDE,
                PATH and based on the installation directories using the
                DOS short name appropriate for the system, (you will
                need to set them for yours, not just blindly copy this) eg :
                <pre>
    set VSINSTALLDIR=c:\PROGRA~2\MICROS~1.0
    set WindowsSdkDir=c:\PROGRA~1\MICROS~1\Windows\v7.1
    set PATH=%VSINSTALLDIR%\vc\bin\amd64;%VSINSTALLDIR%\Common7\IDE;%WindowsSdkDir%\bin;%PATH%

            <blockquote>
                <strong>Linux only:</strong>
                Version 0.9.1 or newer of the ALSA files are
                required for building the OpenJDK on Linux.
                These Linux files are usually available from an "alsa"
                of "libasound"
                development package, it's highly recommended that you try and use
                the package provided by the particular version of Linux that
                you are using.
                The makefiles will check this emit a sanity error if it is
                missing or the wrong version.
                <p>
                    In particular, older Linux systems will likely not have the
                    right version of ALSA installed, for example
                    Redhat AS 2.1 U2 and SuSE 8.1 do not include a sufficiently
                    recent ALSA distribution.
                    On rpm-based systems, you can see if ALSA is installed by
                    running this command:
                <pre>
                    <tt>rpm -qa | grep alsa</tt>
                </pre>
                Both <tt>alsa</tt> and <tt>alsa-devel</tt> packages are needed.
                <p> 
                    If your distribution does not come with ALSA, and you can't
                    find ALSA packages built for your particular system,
                    you can try to install the pre-built ALSA rpm packages from
                    <a href="http://www.freshrpms.net/" target="_blank">
                        <tt>www.freshrpms.net</tt></a>.
                    Note that installing a newer ALSA could
                    break sound output if an older version of ALSA was previously
                    installed on the system, but it will enable JDK compilation.

                Note that this is a minimum install that enables
                building the JDK platform. To actually use ALSA sound drivers, more
                steps are necessary as outlined in the documentation on ALSA's homepage.

            </blockquote>
            There are no ALT* variables to change the assumed locations of ALSA,
            the makefiles will expect to find the ALSA include files and library at:
            <tt>/usr/include/alsa</tt> and <tt>/usr/lib/libasound.so</tt>.

            <blockquote> 
                The OpenJDK requires access to a set of unix command tools
                on Windows which can be supplied by 
                <a href="http://www.cygwin.com" target="_blank">CYGWIN</a>. 
                <p>
                    The OpenJDK build requires CYGWIN version 1.5.12 or newer.
                    Information about CYGWIN can
                    be obtained from the CYGWIN website at

                    By default CYGWIN doesn't install all the tools required for building
                    the OpenJDK.
                    Along with the default installation, you need to install
                    the following tools.

        <blockquote>
            A build can fail for any number of reasons. 
            Most failures
            are a result of trying to build in an environment in which all the
            pre-build requirements have not been met. 
            The first step in
            troubleshooting a build failure is to recheck that you have satisfied
            all the pre-build requirements for your platform.
            Look for the check list of the platform you are building on in the
            <a href="#contents">Table of Contents</a>.
            <p>
                You can validate your build environment by using the <tt>sanity</tt>
                target.
                Any errors listed
                will stop the build from starting, and any warnings may result in
                a flawed product build.
                We strongly encourage you to evaluate every
                sanity check warning and fix it if required, before you proceed
                further with your build.
            <p>
                Some of the more common problems with builds are briefly described
                below, with suggestions for remedies.

                    <blockquote>
                        If your build machine seems to be overloaded from too many
                        simultaneous C++ compiles, try setting the <tt>HOTSPOT_BUILD_JOBS</tt>
                        variable to <tt>1</tt> (if you're using a multiple CPU
                        machine, setting it to more than the the number of CPUs is probably
                        not a good idea).
                        <p>
                            Creating the javadocs can be very slow, if you are running
                            javadoc, consider skipping that step.
                        <p>
                            Faster hardware and more RAM always helps too.
                            The VM build tends to be CPU intensive (many C++ compiles),
                            and the rest of the JDK will often be disk intensive.
                        <p>
                            Faster compiles are possible using a tool called

                    <b>File time issues:</b>
                    <blockquote>
                        If you see warnings that refer to file time stamps, e.g.
                        <blockquote>
                            <i>Warning message:</i><tt> File `xxx' has modification time in

                            <i>Warning message:</i> <tt> Clock skew detected. Your build may
                                be incomplete.</tt>
                        </blockquote>
                        These warnings can occur when the clock on the build machine is out of
                        sync with the timestamps on the source files. Other errors, apparently
                        unrelated but in fact caused by the clock skew, can occur along with
                        the clock skew warnings. These secondary errors may tend to obscure the
                        fact that the true root cause of the problem is an out-of-sync clock.
                        For example, an out-of-sync clock has been known to cause an old

                            containing the build output, and restart the build from the beginning.

                    <blockquote>
                        This is caused by a missing libstdc++.a library.
                        This is installed as part of a specific package
                        (e.g. libstdc++.so.devel.386).
                        By default some 64-bit Linux versions (e.g. Fedora)
                        only install the 64-bit version of the libstdc++ package.
                        Various parts of the JDK build require a static
                        link of the C++ runtime libraries to allow for maximum
                        portability of the built images.
