Hi all, I'm trying to build OpenJDK from latest sources using JDK9-b111 as a boot JDK and configuration script is not able to detect modules support:
$ bash configure --enable-option-checking=fatal --with-jvm-variants=server --with-debug-level=release --disable-headful --with-boot-jdk=/home/filipp/Downloads/bootdir/jdk-9 --with-jtreg=/home/filipp/Development/openjdk/jtreg ... $ grep modules build/linux-x86_64-normal-server-release/configure.log checking if Boot JDK supports modules... no I've looked into common/autoconf/boot-jdk.m4 to find out how modules support is detected and we simply pass '-Xpatch:' to JVM [1]: jdk-9/bin/java -Xpatch: -version Bad value for -Xpatch. Error: Could not create the Java Virtual Machine. Error: A fatal exception has occurred. Program will exit. Am I missing something or that check should actually pass -Xpatch:blablabla? Regards, Filipp. [1] http://hg.openjdk.java.net/jdk9/jdk9/file/03543a758cd5/common/autoconf/boot-jdk.m4#l308
