Hi Oliver: I've seen the modularisation on native, that's great! :) But I have a question here. As I work on native before, I usually build the whole native code once, and then make seperate modules alone, e.g., luni, or nio. It was easy to enter directory luni and force build by "make" and create a new DLL/so file. In this way it is easy to write codes and debug. However after modularisation nowadays, as there are envionment variables in the makefile, which are defined in the build.xml, I have no idea but build whole native with ant, even after changing a single line. So I turn to help for if there's an easy way to build single module alone? Thanks!

It depends on whether you want to wait for what I'm doing or not :) If you want to get the code out now, then you can temporarily put it under native-src/win.IA32/nio and I will move it later as part of the natives modularisation. However, if you don't mind waiting a day or so I should be able to submit my first patch to move the prefs natives. This ought to be enough of an example for you to put your native code directly into modules/nio/src/main/native. > > And second, the native codes probably need portlib, so the portlib's > header file must be accessible, say, portsock.h, but now it has been > moved into luni/src/main/native/blabla, should I include one in my > patch so that nio module can have a copy? or the header file itself > should be put some other well known directory(deploy/build/include I > guess)? At build time, the "copy.native.includes" target in luni/make/build.xml is called - it copies a selection of the header files in luni/src/main/native/include that need to be shared between modules into the deploy/include directory. This is done with an explicit fileset in luni/make/build.xml - if you need to have portsock.h added to the list of shared header files, then this is the place to make that change. Just add its filename to the list, and next time you build it will appear in the deploy/include directory. Your nio code should include the headers from the deploy/include dir, and *not* directly from the luni/src/main/native/include dir. I hope this makes more sense now - if it doesn't, please let me know. I am in the process of writing up some documentation for the website on the natives layout and where headers should go (and also how modules should build against the HDK) - once that is complete it should all be a lot clearer.
