Note: refer to the Known issues section in case you come across issues, if you don't find the solutions there, either Contribute to this book or Report to us.

To build OpenJDK natively or on the cloud

Note: Unless you are in an high network bandwidth environment, please do NOT attempt to build OpenJDK natively.

You don't need to copy anything, just signup with a cloud environment provider i.e. Amazon or another provider.

Provision a box running an OS of choice, and follow the steps mentioned on Adopt OpenJDK Build Instruction (we recommend a Linux distro like Ubuntu or Fedora or Centos).

To build OpenJDK in a Virtualbox VM

Copy these files from the portable device to your machine:

VirtualBox for Ubuntu/[binaries]
            or
VirtualBox for MacOS/[binaries]
            or    
VirtualBox for Windows/[binaries]


OpenJDK VM Images/OpenJDK9_Jigsaw_vm
            or    
OpenJDK VM Images/OpenJDK VM with no IDE support
            or    
OpenJDK VM Images/OpenJDK VM with Eclipse


OpenJDK VM Images/OpenJDK VM passwords.txt
  • Install VirtualBox
  • Run VirtualBox (Oracle VirtualBox)
  • Import the respective VM (do not Create a new VirtualBox setting)
  • Start the VM

Finally proceed to the section to Building OpenJDK 9.

To build OpenJDK in a VM created by a Vagrant script

Copy these files from the portable device to your machine: Vagrant/. Vagrant/openjdk-vagrant-images Vagrant/[binaries]

  • Install Vagrant and ensure it works in the respective environments
  • Unpack the .tar.gz files in the Vagrant folder
  • Read the README.md to understand what each of the script files do
  • Use the scripts when confident
  • Note: Do not execute the Vagrantfile to build an image - this takes times and requires high network bandwidth
  • Note: no scripts for Windows exists (contributions accepted)

To build OpenJDK in a container created by a Docker script

Copy these files from the portable device to your machine:

Docker/*.*
Docker/OpenJDK9
Docker/OpenJDK9-baseimage
  • Install Docker (and Boot2Docker) and ensure they work in the respective environments
  • Read the README.md to understand what each of the script files do
  • Use the scripts when confident
  • Use the loadImageToFile.sh script to load the docker image into your local repository
  • Note: Do not execute the Dockerfile to build an image - this takes times and requires high network bandwidth
  • Note: no scripts for Windows exists (contributions accepted)


Finally

When done go to the How to navigate and make progress ? section, and move to the next step to continue with the flow.
