Hello! I'm trying to build openjdk8, using the master branches of OE and meta-java. Distro is Ostro, which configures:
PREFERRED_PROVIDER_virtual/java-initial-native = "cacao-initial-native" PREFERRED_PROVIDER_virtual/java-native = "cacao-native" PREFERRED_PROVIDER_virtual/javac-native = "ecj-bootstrap-native" In this configuration, cacao-initial-native ecj-initial-native classpath-native ecj-bootstrap-native jikes-initial-native get build before icedtea7-native fails to compile with: build-bootstrap-javac: [javac] Compiling 1 source file to /fast/build/ostro/x86/tmp-glibc/work/x86_64-linux/icedtea7-native/2.1.3-r1.0/icedtea-2.1.3/build/openjdk.build-boot/langtools/build/bootstrap/classes [javac] ---------- [javac] 1. ERROR in /fast/build/ostro/x86/tmp-glibc/work/x86_64-linux/icedtea7-native/2.1.3-r1.0/icedtea-2.1.3/build/openjdk-boot/langtools/src/share/classes/com/sun/tools/javac/file/ZipFileIndex.java (at line 1169) [javac] super(message, cause); [javac] ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ [javac] The constructor IOException(String, Throwable) is undefined [javac] ---------- [javac] 1 problem (1 error) BUILD FAILED /fast/build/ostro/x86/tmp-glibc/work/x86_64-linux/icedtea7-native/2.1.3-r1.0/icedtea-2.1.3/build/openjdk-boot/langtools/make/build.xml:446: The following error occurred while executing this line: /fast/build/ostro/x86/tmp-glibc/work/x86_64-linux/icedtea7-native/2.1.3-r1.0/icedtea-2.1.3/build/openjdk-boot/langtools/make/build.xml:789: Compile failed; see the compiler error output for details. Total time: 2 seconds Makefile:201: recipe for target 'build' failed Sure enough, classpath_0.99 only has IOException with a constructor that takes a single parameter (classpath-native/0.99-r6.0/classpath-0.99/java/io/IOException.java): public class IOException extends Exception { /** * Compatible with JDK 1.0+. */ private static final long serialVersionUID = 7818375828146090155L; /** * Create an exception without a descriptive error message. */ public IOException() { } /** * Create an exception with a descriptive error message. * * @param message the descriptive error message */ public IOException(String message) { super(message); } } // class IOException The code which doesn't compile is icedtea-2.1.3/build/openjdk-boot/langtools/src/share/classes/com/sun/tools/javac/file/ZipFileIndex.java: static final class ZipFormatException extends IOException { private static final long serialVersionUID = 8000196834066748623L; protected ZipFormatException(String message) { super(message); } protected ZipFormatException(String message, Throwable cause) { super(message, cause); } } So I'm not surprised that it fails; this can't work. The questions are: what combination does work, and when did the combination above stop working?
