Hi Magnus, when comparing the linux and aix logs of our openjdk9 builds , I see for Linux at some point : gmake[3]: Entering directory ` . . . /nightly/jdk9/make' /bin/echo Creating jre jimage While on AIX it says : make[3]: Entering directory ` . . . /nightly/jdk9/make' make[3]: Nothing to be done for `jre'. make[3]: Leaving directory ` . . . /nightly/jdk9/make' this Looks wrong to me ! ( the . . . in the output has been removed by me it points to the build dir).

Do they create the JRE image? Regards, Volker Goetz is in a meeting. None of our AIX builds creates a JRE image. Works on other platforms. Looks like a bug. I tried to build jre explicitly (make jre-image); build finishes sucessfully but still no jre. Since I don't have access to any AIX machines, it's difficult to for me to do much about this. Let me know if you need assistance in tracking this down. Some suggestions: run "make LOG=info,cmdlines" to track the progress of the build. If you get lost in the log files, try running "make jre-image" and then "rm build/$BUILD/images/jre", and then "make LOG=info,cmdlines jre-image" to see only the output for the jre-image target. Thanks for the hints! I'll try that. I played around last week with make -d --print-data-base but got lost in the information. Last week I burned some time on this problem without much success. I got stuck understanding the rule in Images.gmk: $(JRE_IMAGE_DIR)/$(JIMAGE_TARGET_FILE): $(JMODS) \ $(call DependOnVariable, JRE_MODULES_LIST) $(BASE_RELEASE_FILE) $(ECHO) Creating jre jimage $(RM) -r $(JRE_IMAGE_DIR) $(JLINK_JRE_EXTRA_OPTS) \ $(JLINK_TOOL) --add-modules $(JRE_MODULES_LIST) \ --output $(JRE_IMAGE_DIR) $(TOUCH) $@ and its brethren. It seems this rule just does not get executed for jre-image. So, trying to understand this (I am no makefile expert): $(JRE_IMAGE_DIR)/$(JIMAGE_TARGET_FILE) is one file from the target dir, in this case jre/java, whose non-existence or out-of-dateness triggers the rule Dependencies: - $(JMODS) is <outputdir>/jmods, which gets built and does exist - $(call DependOnVariable, JRE_MODULES_LIST) This is just a macro that creates a dependency on the contents of the variable JRE_MODULES_LIST. $(BASE_RELEASE_FILE) is a text file which, if it exists and it contains the value of $JRE_MODULES_LIST, will result false (not out of date), otherwise it will update the file with the value of $JRE_MODULES_LIST and return true, triggering the target, yes? If I got this right, why do we use the same output file for all targets (jre, jdk) etc? No, this is a separate dependency. It's the file named "release" in the image that is to be included. If it has changed we need to trigger a new image. Do you get to this stage at all? I.e, can you see "Createing jre jimage" in the output? If not, there's a problem before we even get to this rule. Otherwise, the jlink command is likely broken. Try copy-pasting the full jlink command and running it from the shell directly to see what happens. /Magnus ..Thomas /Magnus I created https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8189618 to track this. ..Thomas Lindenmaier, Goetz <[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>> schrieb am Mi. 18. Okt. 2017 um 14:56: Hi Steve, I think this is an error. We never decided not to generate a jre image as far as I know.

When I try building on my AIX system it is only generating a JDK image. Is this a issue or is it working correctly?
