Hi all, I am absolute new on OpenJDK forum.
Intention: start a port to OpenVMS Itanium Question: which project has to be ported first, given that OpenVMS has a JDK 1.6.0_05 but does not have JDK 1.7.0_* Reason: It is unclear since Months, what HP's JAVA OpenVMS Roadmap will be. But we need to know where we have to go. Fact: Annotaions like @Requestwrapper or @Responsewrapper or @Addressing, used in Web Service Java Code i.e. Apache Axis2/JAXWS support, are having demand on JDK 7.0 / 8.0 which is not available for HP OpenVMS. Hence we can use Annotations only very limitted. Question 1: Where shall I start reading on OpenJDK? Question 2: Which OpenJDK project needs to be ported first to get on OpenVMS $ JAVA.EXE running? (i.e. executing i.e. older byte code) Any hints and redirections to the proper group / project / mailing list is very welcome. Josef.Stadelmann @axa-winterthur.ch
