Hi all,
I am absolute new on OpenJDK forum.
Intention: start a port to OpenVMS Itanium
Question: which project has to be ported first, given that OpenVMS has a JDK
1.6.0_05 but does not have JDK 1.7.0_*
Reason: It is unclear since Months, what HP's JAVA OpenVMS Roadmap will be. But
we need to know where we have to go.
Fact: Annotaions like @Requestwrapper or @Responsewrapper or @Addressing, used
in Web Service Java Code i.e. Apache Axis2/JAXWS support, are having demand on
JDK 7.0 / 8.0 which is not available for HP OpenVMS. Hence we can use
Annotations only very limitted.
Question 1: Where shall I start reading on OpenJDK?
Question 2: Which OpenJDK project needs to be ported first to get on OpenVMS $
JAVA.EXE running?
(i.e. executing i.e. older byte code)
Any hints and redirections to the proper group / project / mailing list is very
welcome.
