UPDATE
The 'pre-running-make' sanity check had this:-
WARNING: You are not building the HOTSPOT sources.
Hotspot libs will be obtained from
the location set in ALT_HOTSPOT_IMPORT_PATH.
and ALT_HOTSPOT_IMPORT_PATH = /opt/jdk-6u24
The machine had this /opt/jdk-6u24/jre/bin/java_vm
QUESTIONS:
--a) is /opt/jdk-6u24/jre/bin/java_vm equivalent to 'hotspot' used?
--b) how does one build the HOTSPOT sources for jdk7? and will these 'hot
spot' building give a needed jvm?
( I looked through the build file and there does not seem to be any obvious
settings )
thanks in advance
