Hi, all, I have posted several mails in the list, asking for different kinds of build errors when I met during the process of building openjdk7 on a customized FreeBSD 8.2 system. Today I found the root cause of all the problems. That is, the system needs one initial bootstrap Java SDK to build the openjdk7, but the tragedy is that, *all* the bootstrap JDKs are binaries. These binaries could run on our system, but will met strange issue since the system is heavily hacked in the kernel and libc part, and it's never generic at all. So here is the problem... I will never have a working Java environment as the bootstrap JDK on the hacked system. I need another generic system to help, who has a good working JDK. So please ignore all the strange errors I posted. Now I want to ask a more generic question, which I suppose is the only way to finish my porting work: How should I build all the C codes in openjdk7 on my hacked system, while build the rest Java codes on another system? Thanks in advance! Peter
