Right. But all the currently opensourced code was buildable at that time.
From this point it was clean: VS2005ExpressSP1 + Platform SDK for
Win2003R2 + DirectX SDK June 2007 + cygwin. Nothing else.
That sounds right then. (I assume you also dealt with the manifest issue?)
Yes, I manually created the *.exe.manifest files (see 6523947 for the
workaround).
Sounds right. But be careful doing any plug and play with a jvm.dll.
One needs to build the hotspot first, and then use the
ALT_HOTSPOT_IMPORT_PATH to point the j2se makefiles to the correct jvm.
Until they get opensourced, the community doesn't need to worry about
their compatibility with Express, does it?
Remains to be seen. We have no control over this compiler and
cannot predict what happens with each Express compiler release.
Frankly, we don't have much control over the Professional compiler as
well. So I don't see any significant difference between the free and
commercial editions of VS from this point.
