Re: building openjdk for windows ,freetype

Hi, freetype is installed by cygwin itself, I downloaded the binary version also and putting that in to the path is not making any difference, is there any specific way to do that? Freetype from cygwin will not work as is. It depends too much on other headers/libs from cygwin. You need to b

OpenJDK: using ant instead of make

Hi, i have tried to build openjdk on XP with the buildenv.bat used by Dan and my settings but i am missing the freetype lib from Igor so if anyone cand send me this lib i would feel great. Also I think it would be easier to build openjdk on windows if we use ant instead of make. The first obviou

RE: building openjdk for windows ,freetype

Having just done this recently, I’d suggest going through the archives and finding Igor’s posts on the subject, and work from there. Make sure you have the latest version of FreeType, because it sounds like yours may be the wrong version. Also, when building using the b17 (most recent) drop, build

RE: OpenJDK: using ant instead of make

I don’t think anybody disagrees, in principle, with what you’re saying; in reality, though, that’s just adding one more thing to the long list of TODOs that the build team have in front of them, and I wouldn’t hold my breath waiting for it to happen. They need to complete the move to Mercurial firs

Re: building openjdk for windows ,freetype

thanks a lot for your help, actually the freetype needs to be built, the one supplied with cygwin directly doesnt work. I had to just open the Visual Studio project file from freetype-2.3.5\builds\win32\visualc and open it is Visual Studio.net 2003 (need to change its version from 8.00 to 7.10 ot

Re: building openjdk for windows ,freetype

You need to start make (or gmake) from cygwin shell. Otherwise paths are not set correctly. I suggest to try to repeat my windows build story described here (make sure you installed everything mentioned in the README-builds.html): http://mail.openjdk.java.net/pipermail/build-dev/2007-August

Re: building JDK for new platform

Well I will look into that. I think that some more detail maybe necessary. I am thinking of building for RiscOS. There is a really nice project that allows you to compile programs written for linux, on a linux machine, to run on a RiscOS machine. I would like to try to use this to build Java. I was

Success :) building openjdk for windows

After running for almost 4 hours the build is ready :D.

Re: Success :) building openjdk for windows

The biggest pain is to use Visual Studio.net 2003 and not Visual Studio.2005 Express edition or GCC for windows or MingW or some other free Compiler for windows.The idea of buying any software to work on open source development is not very encouraging. I agree it will be
