G'day all, I've taken some time to get my bsd-port local repo sync'ed up with the jdk7u2 repo. I'd like to push what I have up into the main repo, but thought it was worth talking over before I do that since I'm not a mercurial guru. Here is what I've done so far:
1. Pull from the jdk7u2 repo. 2. Merged and committed (this warned about creating an extra head, but I went ahead since this seemed reasonable given I was pulling from a new repo). 3. Merged Linux specific changes into the BSD specific code, fixed some merge botches and committed that. The result compiles on FreeBSD/i386 and runs a few examples that I tried. As I said, I'd like to push this up to the main repo now. Some open questions: . Should we tag or branch the current repo first? . Will pushing cause any problem for anyone else? . Has anyone got time to test compile it on other platforms first (or is the best thing to just push and let people test that way)? . Should we branch once we've waited for a week or so and use head for jdk7u4 merging and let any bug fixes go into a jdk7u2 branch? . Anything I'm missing? I expect the jdk7u4 merge to be a lot bigger since we'll need to carefully integrate with the Mac OS X support that is going in. -- Greg Lewis Email : gle...@eyesbeyond.com Eyes Beyond Web : http://www.eyesbeyond.com Information Technology FreeBSD : gle...@freebsd.org
