Re: building openjdk for windows ,freetype

You need to start make (or gmake) from cygwin shell. Otherwise paths are not set correctly.
I suggest to try to repeat my windows build story described here (make sure you installed everything mentioned in the README-builds.html): 
   http://mail.openjdk.java.net/pipermail/build-dev/2007-August/000182.html
Adjust buildenv.bat for your setup and use following additional hints found recently: 1) change PATH to include cygwin directory on the first place (last in my example) 
  2) make sure your username ($USERNAME) has no spaces

I tried doing the same but it wasnt working.
i got the following error

C:\tools-openjdk\freetype-2.3.0>make -f Makefile
make: ver: Command not found
make: type: Command not found
make: *** [dos_setup] Error 127
I tried running this from both cmd.exe as well as cygwin but it didnt worked. 
was i missing something?

    Rishi,

        What ever "make" command exists in <Your cygwin install
    dir>\bin is the gnumake. If it is not named so, you can change
    your config file to use that make. This is not MKS specific and
    you should be able to do all the builds with cygwin (except for VC
    compiler/linker and other binary plus of course).

    Thanks,
    Sandeep

    thanks a lot for your help,
     actually the freetype needs to be built, the one supplied with
    cygwin directly doesnt work.
     I had to just open the Visual Studio project file from
    freetype-2.3.5\builds\win32\visualc and open it is Visual
    Studio.net <http://Studio.net> 2003 (need to change its version
    from 8.00 to 7.10 otherwise it wont open)
    and compile the project, it will produce the required .lib files
    , which can be given to ALT_FREETYPE_LIB_PATH
    i did the same and it is working fine now.(the build is running
    now and passed the point where it used to get stuck while
    freetype check)

    I could not use the bat file at
    http://mail.openjdk.java.net/pipermail/build-dev/2007-August/000187.html
    because i couldnt find the gnumake command for cygwin (probably
    it needs MKS) and i dont have MKS .

    Thanks a lot once again.
    -Regards

        Having just done this recently, I'd suggest going through the
        archives and finding Igor's posts on the subject, and work
        from there. Make sure you have the latest version of
        FreeType, because it sounds like yours may be the wrong
        version. Also, when building using the b17 (most recent)
        drop, build with "OPENJDK=true" on the command line.


        You presumably are running "make sanity" OK?

        hi all,
            I am a newbie for openjdk build so forgive if it seems
        fairly easy.
        I am trying to build openjdk on windows xp sp2. have gone
        through all setup and tools installation and successfully
        able to build hotspot jvm.
        but when I am trying to build complete jdk it is giving the
        following error.
        ERROR: FreeType version  2.3.0 or higher is required.

        freetype is installed by cygwin itself, I downloaded the
        binary version also and putting that in to the path is not
        making any difference, is there any specific way to do that?
        -Regards
