Hello, I am new to OpenJDK and I hope this is the proper mailing list to ask about Mac-related details?
Based on http://wikis.sun.com/display/OpenJDK/Darwin10Build I have built OpenJDK on Mac OS X 10.6.4 Snow Leopard. $ java -version openjdk version "1.7.0-internal" OpenJDK Runtime Environment (build 1.7.0-internal-ralph_2010_10_22_20_59-b00) OpenJDK 64-Bit Server VM (build 19.0-b05, mixed mode) Eclipse (Helios SR1) and Tomcat 6.0.29 seem to be running OK with this build. Compiling the Swing sample http://download.oracle.com/javase/tutorial/uiswing/examples/start/HelloWorldSwingProject/src/start/HelloWorldSwing.java works aswell, but when I run HelloWorldSwing with my OpenJDK build, Java execution terminates when "frame.pack();" is called. No exceptions or errors are reported, at least I have not found anything yet (maybe I am looking in the wrong place). Debugging seems to suggest that execution stops after several levels of recursion in java.awt.Container.preferredSize(). I wonder if anybody else is experiencing this? When I modify the run configuration to use Apple's JRE or SoyLatte instead, the Swing demo code works fine. BTW, running the code with OpenJDK launches X11 on my Mac, so I think that my build was linked with the proper libraries. I have built OpenJDK with both gcc-4.0 and gcc-4.2, but, as expected, this did not make any difference regarding the Swing problem. -Ralph
