Hi all,
I'm now able to build both OpenJDK 10 and 11 (thanks to all who helped
me!). Now what is the correct way to install it for packaging? For now
I use following patch (see below). But I wonder how should this be
done properly.
Hi Petr,
The code path you've found out has not been tested since the early days
of the current (then "brand new") build system. I've actually been
thinking from time to time that we should remove it, since it's not
ordinarily used.
Than I wonder what other distributions do? They probably just pick up
files they need like here:
http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/view/cvs/general/openjdk.html
But I don't really know what is need it.
But if you see a point in keeping it, I'm happy to accept patches! :)
Good to know!
Does the installation work fine with the patch below?
It seems to. But I just installed it to build Java itself. Plus also
tried to build Tomcat and run its test suite.
But not really sure whether following directory structure is good enough:
usr/jvm/openjdk-11
usr/jvm/openjdk-11/bin
usr/jvm/openjdk-11/demo
usr/jvm/openjdk-11/lib
usr/jvm/openjdk-11/include
usr/jvm/openjdk-11/jmods
usr/jvm/openjdk-11/conf
usr/jvm/openjdk-11/man
In Solaris for JDK 8 we have:
usr/jdk/instances/jdk1.8.0
I mean "jdk" is probably better than "jvm"? Maybe I should try to keep
existing structure.
Thanks!
Petr
