Hi Phil, The situation I found is strange: the JDK we build works well on windows which have the building environment. Eg. machine1 and machine2 both can build windows openjdk. If I copy a jdk built on machine1 to machine2, it works well. If machine3 doesn't have the build environment, it reports error about freetype.dll. I haven't investigate the problem, however the freetype.dll is there with awt.dll. So I guessed it was something related to freetype.dll installation. The attachment is the error information.
