The new sparse binary plugs will have the same exact layout as a jdk install
tree, e.g. bin, lib, jre, jre/lib, jre/bin, etc.
With one additional directory called "libfiles". This is where t2k.lib will be
found,
however, look quickly, because it may be deleted from the binary plugs soon
and won't even be needed anymore. So anything you do around t2k.lib may be a bit
of a waste of time. The new sparse binary plugs are awaiting some legal issues
and should be showing up any day now.
The j2se/make/common/BinaryPlugs.gmk file has the rules for dealing with the
binary plugs and has a rule that will copy the t2k.lib file into the right
place when the make/sun/font/Makefile is run. There is an export and import
process for the BinaryPlugs. As the different engineering groups remove
the need for plugs, this file should get smaller and smaller, as will the
size of the binary plugs which will be created automatically soon.
Unfortunately we suspect there is a missing 'mkdir' in BinaryPlugs.gmk right
now:

At least that's what we think prevents the new sparse binary plug bundles
from allowing an OpenJDK build on windows to work right now.
We were testing windows builds last week just before I took off on a
short vacation.
You could simulate things by creating this "libfiles" directory and placing
your t2k.lib file in it.
As far as debugging the build process, it's not easy, but it has been
getting better over the last few releases.
Expect more build changes in the future with a goal of simplification.
Try 'gnumake -p', or there was a recent article in Dr. Dobbs about debugging
makefiles that was very helpful. Last month maybe or 2 months ago?

Next issue: after an svn update (which caught me up to rev 244, the latest
in SVN), I do a Windows build, and it fails in the j2se/make/sun/font build,
trying (of course) to build t2k.lib. The problem is, I can't figure out what
it's looking for in order to slip t2k.lib into the right place and move on.
Here's the results:

Where did this directory "libfiles" come from in the build step? My guess is
it's coming from a variable/setting somewhere, but I can't figure out what
to set in order to help the build system find my cribbed t2k.lib so it can
move on. And even if I create said directories (both in the BinaryPlugs dir
and the build dir), and put t2k.lib in there, the build still fails.
Help?
BTW, in general, how does one debug the build process? 'make -d' just seems
horrendous....

Yep, had it pointing to the Import JDK (1.6) instead of the binary plug
JDK
(1.7). Thanks. There's a lot of JDKs needed to build the JDK. :-)
By the way, in case those on this list haven't seen it, the build on Intel
machines won't work, as there's a compilation error in a source file, as
reported on the hotspot-dev list on 7/9 by Sunil Soman. Patch:

Peter Kessler reported it as already reported, a la
http://mail.openjdk.java.net/pipermail/build-dev/2007-July/000098.html
but no official bug had been filed, and there was some concern about
Sunil's
contributor status or whatnot. Not sure what happened to it from there.

Yes, sounds like you are missing the entire binary plug download, or
haven't properly pointed to it's location.
