If you're using netbeans, there's a guide getting javac (and probably HotSpot as well) sources via netbeans update center: http://nb-openjdk.netbeans.org/get-and-build.html You can also download the zip bundles: https://openjdk.dev.java.net/hotspot/ Haven't used dev.java.net in a while. IIRC you can use the username "guest" and an empty password to checkout from svn. Otherwise the username/pass are the ones you've registered at dev.java.net (assuming you did that).
