Hi Paul, Updated the morty branch today. Sorry for this mess-up.

So it looks like there is a morty branch now, but it includes a commit that only works with master due to inheriting relative_symlinks (as also noted by Koen).

You can add an empty class to make 'master' work with 'morty': https://github.com/Angstrom-distribution/meta-angstrom/commit/2eca0f1c932f098eb7fd877c5b00225408b2e42d And I had to do this to make it build: https://github.com/Angstrom-distribution/meta-angstrom/blob/709abee819ee349dab873f6abb02c404b2c65331/recipes-tweaks/ecj/ecj-initial-native.bbappend With this I can build 'openjre-8' on debian and fedora hosts for armv7 and x86_64. It even runs jenkins, but it used 4x the amount of memory openjdk-7 did :( regards, Koen -- ___ Openembedded-devel mailing list Openembedded-devel@lists.openembedded.org http://lists.openembedded.org/mailman/listinfo/openembedded-devel

I forgot to mention a annoying and stupid bug: if host and target match it will use host g++ to compile, which breaks in my case because that's gcc 4.9 which doesn't understand the dse flags the recipe is passing in. regards, Koen -- ___ Openembedded-devel mailing list Openembedded-devel@lists.openembedded.org http://lists.openembedded.org/mailman/listinfo/openembedded-devel

I've had trouble even finding a revision that will compile on Morty. I'm using the current master branch with YP jethro for running OpenJRE 7 in mixed mode on ARM systems. And I'm currently migrating my platforms to master (->pyro). So it works fine for me. Only problem is that we cannot upgrade OpenJDK to the current patch level for ARM because JIT was broken: http://icedtea.classpath.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=2942 meta-oracle-java has a Morty branch, but the URI for the binaries is bad so it fails to install. Haven't tried meta-oracle-java in the last couple of years (due to license issues). Overall it seems like Java is not a very favored or platform at the moment. That's maybe true. But help in the meta-java layer for fixing problems is (if you have some spare time) always appreciated ;-) regards, RichardL -- ___ Openembedded-devel mailing list Openembedded-devel@lists.openembedded.org http://lists.openembedded.org/mailman/listinfo/openembedded-devel

[oe] State of Java on OE
Is anyone using Java on OE devices right now? meta-java - no release branches. Seems to only be focused on master. I've had trouble even finding a revision that will compile on Morty. meta-oracle-java has a Morty branch, but the URI for the binaries is bad so it fails to install. Overall it seems like Java is not a very favored or platform at the moment. -- Steven Osborn http://lolsborn.com -- ___ Openembedded-devel mailing list Openembedded-devel@lists.openembedded.org http://lists.openembedded.org/mailman/listinfo/openembedded-devel
