Hi all,

For the javac bug warnings day I'm trying to set-up a VM which contains a
full clone of http://hg.openjdk.java.net/jdk8/tl (into
the ~/jdk8_tl directory). I'm then building the full OpenJDK with:

LANG=C
ALT_BOOTDIR=/opt/java/1.7.0_03 (an installation of Oracle's binary)

The full build below works just fine:

cd ~/jdk8_tl
make sanity
make clean
make all

I'm then looking to build the jdk sub tree after that with compiler
warnings switched on. I'm hoping to pick up the latest hotspot etc that was
just built.  So I execute the following:

cd ~/jdk8_tl/jdk/make
make clean
make JAVAC_MAX_WARNINGS=true JAVAC_WARNINGS_FATAL=
OTHER_JAVACFLAGS="-Xmaxwarns 10000" &> build.log

However this subtree build errors out as it can't find various paths/files
to build/reference.  I started 'educated guessing' what env vars to set
(such as ALT_HOTSPOT_SERVER_PATH, ALT_HOTSPOT_CLIENT_PATH
& ALT_HOTSPOT_IMPORT_PATH). However, I'm concerned I'm going down the wrong
path, as I'm adding more and more env vars, complicating the set-up
considerably.

Is the set of env vars you would typically set for a full build different
to a subtree (jdk) build?  Is there a set that will work for both, in
particular the partial build after the full build?

Cheers,
Martijn
