    19 Simple Build Instructions:
       
    20 
       
    21   0. Get the necessary system software/packages installed on your system, see
       
    22      http://hg.openjdk.java.net/jdk9/jdk9/raw-file/tip/README-builds.html
       
    23 
       
    24   1. If you don't have a jdk8 or newer jdk, download and install it from
       
    25      http://java.sun.com/javase/downloads/index.jsp
       
    26      Add the /bin directory of this installation to your PATH environment
       
    27      variable.
       
    28 
       
    29   2. Configure the build:
       
    30        bash ./configure
       
    31 
       
    32   3. Build the OpenJDK:
       
    33        make all
       
    34      The resulting JDK image should be found in build/*/images/jdk
       
    35 
       
    36 where make is GNU make 3.81 or newer, /usr/bin/make on Linux usually
       
    37 is 3.81 or newer. Note that on Solaris, GNU make is called "gmake".
