Compiling OpenJDK
Paul Smedley:
Hey All,
Wondering if anyone has ever (other than Dmik!) been able to compile OpenJDK on OS/2? ie https://trac.netlabs.org/java
I haven't tried for some time, but had previously attemped to follow the instructions a https://trac.netlabs.org/java/browser/tags/ga5/README and not gotten very far.
It would be nice to at least get the current code compiling, which could then form a basis for how feasible it is to use this code to updated to a newer openjdk version.
Cheers,
Paul

Doesn't look simple, in particular finding "The contents of the j2sdk-image directory of the Windows build of OpenJDK6"
I think to go any newer would take more fixes in Odin. Wouldn't be surprised if newer GCC's have problems, just compiling Mozilla and getting a working optimized binary was quite a challenge with luckily lots of hints in Bugzilla for newer Firefox's.
I might give it a try at some point.

Well if nothing else, there is a b49 at https://github.com/openjdk/jdk6 (vs our current b27)
Edit: https://download.oracle.com/otn/java/jdk/6u45-b06/jdk-6u45-windows-i586.exe might help for the j2sdk-image directory

Hi Paul
I completely support the idea to see what can it be done with OpenJDK, but I don't know if it will be too much to this and the Qt 6 port at the same time.
Check if something can be done, and let us know how can we support you.
Regards
