Hi, Just wanted to confirm some issues: I am interested in building the latest (tip) of jdk8 GA release.
1- jdk8 GA is different from jdk8u (u is for updates), I should get the src from http://hg.openjdk.java.net/jdk8/jdk8 2- The latest tagged version of the src is "jdk8-b132 9106:43cb25339b55" 3- I confirm that I have the latest src (for GA) by running "hg tags" like unix> cd srcDir/jdk ; hg tags | head -2 tip 9107:687fd7c7986d jdk8-b132 9106:43cb25339b55 I go ahead and build everything and then run "java -version" and I see openjdk version "1.8.0-20141202" OpenJDK Runtime Environment (build 1.8.0-20141202-HDS-174701) OpenJDK 64-Bit Server VM (build 25.0-b70, mixed mode) Q- Why am I seeing "build 25.0-b70" ? Does this "b70" has anything to do with above "jdk8-b132" ? Thanks Medi
