I'm trying to build JDK-1.5.0_05 using SVN. I just build LFS 6.1 on my
laptop and have gcc-3.4.3 installed. The build fails with a series of
messages containing the phrase "does not give a valid preprocessing
token." This build failure occurs regardless of how I'm logged in me,
root, or the pkgusr.
I've not found anything specific in the BLFS archives--only vague
references to people using the precompiled binary of JDK-1.5.0 because
of build problems with it. I have, however, discovered that these
errors come from the compiler--at least I think I've discovered that. I
applied the jdk-1.5.0-gcc-3.4.2+-3 patch from the stable version of the
book. I didn't apply the gcc patch from the SVN version because I don't
have gcc-4 installed.
Have I done too much mixing and matching? Would it be best to install
the version of jdk from the stable version?
I've tried going through the various makefiles, but can't make hide nor
hair of what they're doing.
