Hi, could somebody please review the following change and create an appropriate Bug ID for it:
http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~simonis/webrevs/linux_ppc_build_jdk/ The patch contains two little changes which are required to build the class library part of the OpenJDK on Linux/PPC64. Most of the build magic is contained in the top-level part of this change which is separately reviewed at http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~simonis/webrevs/linux_ppc_build_top CompileLaunchers.gmk Remove mapfile from build instructions of BUILD_UNPACKEXE: CFLAGS_macosx:=-fPIC, \ - MAPFILE:=$(JDK_TOPDIR)/makefiles/mapfiles/libunpack/mapfile-vers-unpack200,\ LDFLAGS:=$(UNPACKEXE_ZIPOBJS),\ I think it makes no sense to use a version script file for an executable and older linkers (e.g. on SLES 10) complain with: "*Invalid version tag `SUNWprivate_1.1'. Only anonymous version tag is allowed in executable.*" The GNU ld manual<http://ftp.gnu.org/old-gnu/Manuals/ld-2.9.1/html_node/ld_25.html>states: "*Version scripts are only meaningful when creating shared libraries.*" Morover unpack200 was the only executable which used a version script file. Fix typo (replace 'defalt: all' by 'default') default: all CompileNativeLibraries.gmk Only use $(OPENWIN_LIB) for linking LIBSPLASHSCREEN on Solaris! The old code worked only accidentally when the X-libraries are in the default linker path anyway. The right solution is to use $(X_LIBS) if not on Windows or Solaris. Append -DX_ARCH=X_PPC64 to LIBJSOUND_CFLAGS on PPC64. The value of X_ARCHisn't actually used on the PPC architectures, but there's a check to verify that it is set. Fix typo (replace 'defalt: all' by 'default') default: all Thank you and best regards, Volker
