Hello --
Are there any known issues with msvcr100.dll when building OpenJDK8 on Windows
8.1 Pro? Using the setup below, the configure script fails with the following
msvcr100.dll-related errors:
(1) configure: The file type of the located msvcr100.dll is PE32+ executable
for MS Windows (DLL) (GUI) Mono/.Net assembly
(2) [Using the --with-msvcr-dll option] configure: The file type of the located
msvcr100.dll is PE32 executable for MS Windows (DLL) (GUI) Intel 80386 32-bit
There are several msvcr100.dll files on the build machine. The script can find
the msvcr100.dll in both Windows/System32 and the one in the Visual C++ x64
folder via the VS100COMNTOOLS variable. Explicitly pointing to a different one
(including the msvcr100.dll bundled with JDK 1.7) always produces one of the
above errors.
My setup:
Windows 8.1 Pro (64 bit)
JDK 1.7.0_45 (64 bit)
Microsoft Visual C++ 2010 Express (Version 10.0.30319.1 RTMRel)
Microsoft .NET Framework (Version 4.5.51641 RTMRel)
Microsoft Visual C++ 2010 x86 and x64 redistributables with SP1
Microsoft Visual C++ 2008 x86 and x64 redistributables with SP1
MinGW/MSYS (mingw-developer-toolkit, mingw32-base & msys-base versions
2013072300, mingw32-gcc-g++ version 4.8.1-4)
Any suggestions greatly appreciated!
