Hi,
I’m looking to understand the situation on the production of full
debug symbols, as we’ve noticed at Adoptium jdk26 JDK images no longer
have the full debug symbols where they used to be in the JDK image?
For Temurin release builds we use external symbols
(--with-debug-level=release --with-native-debug-symbols=external) and
then move the JDK debug info files to a separate debug image tarball,
I’m trying to figure what we need to change?
Are the images/symbols folder files full debug files? Should we get
them from there instead?
Thanks
Yes, that is correct. The debug symbols are now only put into the
symbols image, unless you explicitly configure your build to include
them in the regular image and bundles using
`--with-external-symbols-in-bundles=full`.
I would also recommend looking at the `make bundles` or `make
product-bundles` targets as those will generate the appropriate bundles
for you, though on Windows they are zip bundles as that's a more
commonly used packaging format for that platform.
