Hi Anthony,
Thanks for responding to my post.
I'm aware of the make files available for other projects and sub-projects from within the OpenJDK.
But the reason I was requesting help on building the Awt2d and J2se as they form part of the JDK
project and it would be handy to be able to build them separately (irrespective of the netbeans
projects) to the whole JDK project itself. Given that the total build time for the JDK is longer
than just building its underlying components - developers would love working on separate
components in IDEs of their choice.
I'm working on wiki instructions to help with the Adopt OpenJDK initiative which would assist
adopters to build these projects via the CLI or from withiin Eclipse.
At this stage I'm updating existing instructions to build OpenJDK and its sub-projects in Eclipse
and CLI - I have been able to build most of the sub-projects except the two sub-projects under the
/jdk/ folder.Besides moving the make files of these projects to the new build system would also
benefit future adopters to directly load them up in their IDE and amend the underlying code and
see the build results in the console.
There is a potential for a larger number of users in our group to do just this and more hence I'm
involved in the process. Any hint or help would be most appreciated, as I think it might just be
a matter of configuration - I did read about sustaining these build.xml files for future use on a
couple of other mailing lists.
Thanks.
Regards,
Mani

Hi Mike,
at the moment, I do not have any environment to create changesets or webrevs,
will take some time.
No rush. I may also get to this. My suggestion was motivated towards getting
your OpenJDK commit count up.
Mentioning the NB list in README would be a good idea.
Some time ago, I tried some enhancements here:
https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/attachment.cgi?id=125&action=diff
Search for "/make/netbeans/common/".
I will look for these changes.
Have a nice day,
Happy New Year to you as well!
Mike
