 <!--
- This is the main build file for the complete langtools workspace.
- It is used both when working on the tools in NetBeans, and when building
- JDK itself, in which case it is invoked from the wrapper Makefile.
+ This is the main build file for the complete langtools repository.
+ It is used when building JDK (in which case it is invoked from the
+ Makefile), and it can be used when working on the tools themselves,
+ in an IDE such as NetBeans.
+
+ External dependencies are specified via properties. These can be given
+ on the command line, or by providing a local build.properties file.
+ (They can also be edited into make/build.properties, although that is not
+ recommended.)  At a minimum, boot.java.home must be set to the installed
+ location of the version of JDK used to build this repository. Additional
+ properties may be required, depending on the targets that are built.
+ For example, to run any of the jtreg tests you must set jtreg.home,
+ to run findbugs on the code you must set findbugs.home, and so on.
+
+ For the most part, javac can be built using the previous version of JDK.
+ However, a small number of javac files require access to the latest JDK,
+ which may not yet have been compiled. To compile these files, you can do
+ one of the following:
+ - Set boot.java.home to a recent build of the latest version of JDK.
+ - Set import.jdk to either a recent build (containing jre/lib/rt.jar)
+   or to jdk source repository.  In the latter case, stub files will
+   automatically be generated and used for the required API, to avoid
+   unnecessary compilation of the source repository.
+ If you do neither, the relevant files will not be built.
+
+ The main build happens in two phases:
+ - First, javac and other tools as needed are built using ${boot.java.home}.
+   (This implies a constraint on the source code that they can be compiled
+   with the previous version of JDK.
+ - Second, all required classes are compiled with the latest javac, created
+   in the previous step.
+ The first phase is called the bootstrap phase. All targets, properties and
+ tasks that are specific to that phase have "bootstrap" in their name.
+
+ For more details on the JDK build, see
+    http://blogs.sun.com/kto/entry/anatomy_of_the_jdk_build
+    http://openjdk.java.net/groups/build/
+ For more details on the stub generator, see
+    http://blogs.sun.com/jjg/entry/building_javac_for_jdk7
+
+ Internal details ...
+
+ Interim build products are created in the build/ directory.
+ Final build products are created in the dist/ directory.
+ When building JDK, the dist/directory will contain:
+ - A bootstrap compiler suitable for running with ${boot.java.home}
+   suitable for compiling downstream parts of JDK
+ - Source files and class files for inclusion in the JDK being built
+ When building standalone, the dist/directory will contain:
+ - Separate jar files for each of the separate langtools components
+ - Simple scripts to invoke the tools by executing the corresponding
+   jar files.
+ These jar files and scripts are "for developer use only".
+
+ This file is organized into sections as follows:
+ - global property definitions
+ - general top level targets
+ - general diagnostic/debugging targets
+ - groups of targets for each tool: javac, javadoc, doclets, javah, javap, apt
+    Within each group, the following targets are provided, where applicable
+      build-bootstrap-TOOL      build the bootstrap version of the tool
+      build-classes-TOOL        build the classes for the tool
+      build-TOOL                build the jar file and script for the tool
+      jtreg-TOOL                build the tool and run the appropriate tests
+      findbugs-TOOL             run findbugs on the tool's source oode
+      TOOL                      build the tool, run the tests, and run findbugs
+ - utility definitions
