This set of nested repositories has been given the term "forest" and there are various ways to apply the same <code>hg</code> command to each of the repositories. For example, the script <code>make/scripts/hgforest.sh</code> can be used to repeat the same <code>hg</code> command on every repository, e.g.</p>

673240c54c2e 8176509: Use pandoc for converting build readme to html ihse parents: 41040 diff changeset	203	<p>Building on Windows requires a Unix-like environment, notably a Unix-like shell. There are several such environments available of which <a href="http://www.cygwin.com/">Cygwin</a> and <a href="http://www.mingw.org/wiki/MSYS">MinGW/MSYS</a> are currently supported for the OpenJDK build. One of the differences of these systems from standard Windows tools is the way they handle Windows path names, particularly path names which contain spaces, backslashes as path separators and possibly drive letters. Depending on the use case and the specifics of each environment these path problems can be solved by a combination of quoting whole paths, translating backslashes to forward slashes, escaping backslashes with additional backslashes and translating the path names to their <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/8.3_filename">"8.3" version</a>.</p>

It tries to be smart about path names and can usually handle all kinds of paths if they are correctly quoted or escaped although internally it maps drive letters <code><drive>:</code> to a virtual directory <code>/cygdrive/<drive></code>.</p>
673240c54c2e 8176509: Use pandoc for converting build readme to html ihse parents: 41040 diff changeset	206	<p>You can always use the <code>cygpath</code> utility to map pathnames with spaces or the backslash character into the <code>C:/</code> style of pathname (called 'mixed'), e.g. <code>cygpath -s -m "<path>"</code>.</p>
673240c54c2e 8176509: Use pandoc for converting build readme to html ihse parents: 41040 diff changeset	207	<p>Note that the use of CYGWIN creates a unique problem with regards to setting <a href="#path"><code>PATH</code></a>. Normally on Windows the <code>PATH</code> variable contains directories separated with the ";" character (Solaris and Linux use ":"). With CYGWIN, it uses ":", but that means that paths like "C:/path" cannot be placed in the CYGWIN version of <code>PATH</code> and instead CYGWIN uses something like <code>/cygdrive/c/path</code> which CYGWIN understands, but only CYGWIN understands.</p>

673240c54c2e 8176509: Use pandoc for converting build readme to html ihse parents: 41040 diff changeset	278	<p>MinGW ("Minimalist GNU for Windows") is a collection of free Windows specific header files and import libraries combined with GNU toolsets that allow one to produce native Windows programs that do not rely on any 3rd-party C runtime DLLs. MSYS is a supplement to MinGW which allows building applications and programs which rely on traditional UNIX tools to be present. Among others this includes tools like <code>bash</code> and <code>make</code>. See <a href="http://www.mingw.org/wiki/MSYS">MinGW/MSYS</a> for more information.</p>
673240c54c2e 8176509: Use pandoc for converting build readme to html ihse parents: 41040 diff changeset	279	<p>Like Cygwin, MinGW/MSYS can handle different types of path formats. They are internally converted to paths with forward slashes and drive letters <code><drive>:</code> replaced by a virtual directory <code>/<drive></code>. Additionally, MSYS automatically detects binaries compiled for the MSYS environment and feeds them with the internal, Unix-style path names. If native Windows applications are called from within MSYS programs their path arguments are automatically converted back to Windows style path names with drive letters and backslashes as path separators. This may cause problems for Windows applications which use forward slashes as parameter separator (e.g. <code>cl /nologo /I</code>) because MSYS may wrongly <a href="http://mingw.org/wiki/Posix_path_conversion">replace such parameters by drive letters</a>.</p>

In JDK and JRE binary bundles, the "cacerts" file contains root CA certificates from several public CAs (e.g., VeriSign, Thawte, and Baltimore). The source contain a cacerts file without CA root certificates. Formal JDK builders will need to secure permission from each public CA and include the certificates into their own custom cacerts file. Failure to provide a populated cacerts file will result in verification errors of a certificate chain during runtime. By default an empty cacerts file is provided and that should be fine for most JDK developers.</p>

673240c54c2e 8176509: Use pandoc for converting build readme to html ihse parents: 41040 diff changeset	470	<strong>A:</strong> If it was not generated, every user would need to have the autoconf tools installed, and re-generate the <code>configure</code> file as the first step. Our goal is to minimize the work needed to be done by the user to start building OpenJDK, and to minimize the number of external dependencies required.</p>
673240c54c2e 8176509: Use pandoc for converting build readme to html ihse parents: 41040 diff changeset	471	<p><strong>Q:</strong> Do you require a specific version of autoconf for regenerating <code>generated-configure.sh</code>?<br />
673240c54c2e 8176509: Use pandoc for converting build readme to html ihse parents: 41040 diff changeset	472	<strong>A:</strong> Yes, version 2.69 is required and should be easy enough to aquire on all supported operating systems. The reason for this is to avoid large spurious changes in <code>generated-configure.sh</code>.</p>
673240c54c2e 8176509: Use pandoc for converting build readme to html ihse parents: 41040 diff changeset	473	<p><strong>Q:</strong> How do you regenerate <code>generated-configure.sh</code> after making changes to the input files?<br />
673240c54c2e 8176509: Use pandoc for converting build readme to html ihse parents: 41040 diff changeset	474	<strong>A:</strong> Regnerating <code>generated-configure.sh</code> should always be done using the script <code>common/autoconf/autogen.sh</code> to ensure that the correct files get updated. This script should also be run after mercurial tries to merge <code>generated-configure.sh</code> as a merge of the generated file is not guaranteed to be correct.</p>
673240c54c2e 8176509: Use pandoc for converting build readme to html ihse parents: 41040 diff changeset	475	<p><strong>Q:</strong> What are the files in <code>common/makefiles/support/*</code> for? They look like gibberish.<br />
673240c54c2e 8176509: Use pandoc for converting build readme to html ihse parents: 41040 diff changeset	476	<strong>A:</strong> They are a somewhat ugly hack to compensate for command line length limitations on certain platforms (Windows, Solaris). Due to a combination of limitations in make and the shell, command lines containing too many files will not work properly. These helper files are part of an elaborate hack that will compress the command line in the makefile and then uncompress it safely. We're not proud of it, but it does fix the problem. If you have any better suggestions, we're all ears! :-)</p>

673240c54c2e 8176509: Use pandoc for converting build readme to html ihse parents: 41040 diff changeset	486	<strong>A:</strong> Normally you will run <code>configure</code> only once for creating a configuration. You need to re-run configuration only if you want to change any configuration options, or if you pull down changes to the <code>configure</code> script.</p>
673240c54c2e 8176509: Use pandoc for converting build readme to html ihse parents: 41040 diff changeset	487	<p><strong>Q:</strong> I have added a new source file. Do I need to modify the makefiles?<br />
673240c54c2e 8176509: Use pandoc for converting build readme to html ihse parents: 41040 diff changeset	488	<strong>A:</strong> Normally, no. If you want to create e.g. a new native library, you will need to modify the makefiles. But for normal file additions or removals, no changes are needed. There are certan exceptions for some native libraries where the source files are spread over many directories which also contain sources for other libraries. In these cases it was simply easier to create include lists rather than excludes.</p>
673240c54c2e 8176509: Use pandoc for converting build readme to html ihse parents: 41040 diff changeset	489	<p><strong>Q:</strong> When I run <code>configure --help</code>, I see many strange options, like <code>--dvidir</code>. What is this?<br />
673240c54c2e 8176509: Use pandoc for converting build readme to html ihse parents: 41040 diff changeset	490	<strong>A:</strong> Configure provides a slew of options by default, to all projects that use autoconf. Most of them are not used in OpenJDK, so you can safely ignore them. To list only OpenJDK specific features, use <code>configure --help=short</code> instead.</p>
673240c54c2e 8176509: Use pandoc for converting build readme to html ihse parents: 41040 diff changeset	491	<p><strong>Q:</strong> <code>configure</code> provides OpenJDK-specific features such as <code>--with-builddeps-server</code> that are not described in this document. What about those?<br />
673240c54c2e 8176509: Use pandoc for converting build readme to html ihse parents: 41040 diff changeset	492	<strong>A:</strong> Try them out if you like! But be aware that most of these are experimental features. Many of them don't do anything at all at the moment; the option is just a placeholder. Others depend on pieces of code or infrastructure that is currently not ready for prime time.</p>
673240c54c2e 8176509: Use pandoc for converting build readme to html ihse parents: 41040 diff changeset	493	<p><strong>Q:</strong> How will you make sure you don't break anything?<br />
673240c54c2e 8176509: Use pandoc for converting build readme to html ihse parents: 41040 diff changeset	494	<strong>A:</strong> We have a script that compares the result of the new build system with the result of the old. For most part, we aim for (and achieve) byte-by-byte identical output. There are however technical issues with e.g. native binaries, which might differ in a byte-by-byte comparison, even when building twice with the old build system. For these, we compare relevant aspects (e.g. the symbol table and file size). Note that we still don't have 100% equivalence, but we're close.</p>
673240c54c2e 8176509: Use pandoc for converting build readme to html ihse parents: 41040 diff changeset	495	<p><strong>Q:</strong> I noticed this thing X in the build that looks very broken by design. Why don't you fix it?<br />
673240c54c2e 8176509: Use pandoc for converting build readme to html ihse parents: 41040 diff changeset	496	<strong>A:</strong> Our goal is to produce a build output that is as close as technically possible to the old build output. If things were weird in the old build, they will be weird in the new build. Often, things were weird before due to obscurity, but in the new build system the weird stuff comes up to the surface. The plan is to attack these things at a later stage, after the new build system is established.</p>
673240c54c2e 8176509: Use pandoc for converting build readme to html ihse parents: 41040 diff changeset	497	<p><strong>Q:</strong> The code in the new build system is not that well-structured. Will you fix this?<br />
673240c54c2e 8176509: Use pandoc for converting build readme to html ihse parents: 41040 diff changeset	498	<strong>A:</strong> Yes! The new build system has grown bit by bit as we converted the old system. When all of the old build system is converted, we can take a step back and clean up the structure of the new build system. Some of this we plan to do before replacing the old build system and some will need to wait until after.</p>

673240c54c2e 8176509: Use pandoc for converting build readme to html ihse parents: 41040 diff changeset	500	<strong>A:</strong> Yes, this is the minimal (or roughly minimal) set of compiled output needed for a developer to actually execute the newly built JDK. The idea is that in an incremental development fashion, when doing a normal make, you should only spend time recompiling what's changed (making it purely incremental) and only do the work that's needed to actually run and test your code. The packaging stuff that is part of the <code>images</code> target is not needed for a normal developer who wants to test his new code. Even if it's quite fast, it's still unnecessary. We're targeting sub-second incremental rebuilds! ;-) (Or, well, at least single-digit seconds...)</p>
673240c54c2e 8176509: Use pandoc for converting build readme to html ihse parents: 41040 diff changeset	501	<p><strong>Q:</strong> I usually set a specific environment variable when building, but I can't find the equivalent in the new build. What should I do?<br />
673240c54c2e 8176509: Use pandoc for converting build readme to html ihse parents: 41040 diff changeset	502	<strong>A:</strong> It might very well be that we have neglected to add support for an option that was actually used from outside the build system. Email us and we will add support for it!</p>

673240c54c2e 8176509: Use pandoc for converting build readme to html ihse parents: 41040 diff changeset	504	<p>Building OpenJDK requires a lot of horsepower. Some of the build tools can be adjusted to utilize more or less of resources such as parallel threads and memory. The <code>configure</code> script analyzes your system and selects reasonable values for such options based on your hardware. If you encounter resource problems, such as out of memory conditions, you can modify the detected values with:</p>

673240c54c2e 8176509: Use pandoc for converting build readme to html ihse parents: 41040 diff changeset	513	<p>The OpenJDK build supports building with ccache when using gcc or clang. Using ccache can radically speed up compilation of native code if you often rebuild the same sources. Your milage may vary however so we recommend evaluating it for yourself. To enable it, make sure it's on the path and configure with <code>--enable-ccache</code>.</p>

673240c54c2e 8176509: Use pandoc for converting build readme to html ihse parents: 41040 diff changeset	519	<p>By default, <code>configure</code> will analyze your machine and run the make process in parallel with as many threads as you have cores. This behavior can be overridden, either "permanently" (on a <code>configure</code> basis) using <code>--with-num-cores=N</code> or for a single build only (on a make basis), using <code>make JOBS=N</code>.</p>

What is listed below is what the Oracle Release Engineering Team will use to build the Oracle JDK product. Building with the MBE will hopefully generate the most compatible bits that install on, and run correctly on, the most variations of the same base OS and hardware architecture. In some cases, these represent what is often called the least common denominator, but each Operating System has different aspects to it.</p>
