I am in favor of the fundamental change to a "configure + make" model,
instead of configury stuff being done in the Makefiles as is the
current practice.
I agree, but I have understood that this work has been done in IcedTea
already. Is there any estimate when these two codebases may converge?
Does IcedTea configure+make model work on platforms other than
linux? OpenJDK has to be built at least on Solaris and Windows.
It's my understanding that Windows is the greatest pain in
terms of build environment.
It should work on (open)solaris, but I haven't tried myself. I doubt
I gave it a try again, just to see what happens.
The script first looks for an awk and finds /usr/bin/nawk, and then
explicitly later looks for gawk. export GAWK=/usr/bin/nawk got me over
that test.
It requires both an ecj.jar and a libgcj.jar. Are both necessary?
A "-bash-3.2$ ./configure
--with-ecj-jar=/export/home/ravn/download/ecj.jar --with-ecj
--with-libgcj-jar=/export/home/ravn/download/ecj.jar
--with-xalan2-jar=/export/home/ravn/download/ecj.jar
--with-xalan2-serializer-jar=/export/home/ravn/download/ecj.jar
--with-xerces2-jar=/export/home/ravn/download/ecj.jar" got me to
configure: error: "motif headers were not found -
try installing lesstif-devel."
which I now remember to be the place where I gave up the last time as
apparently Motif is not available under OpenSolaris and "pkg search
lesstif" did not show any packages.
I'll look at building lesstif and see what happens then...
