Hi Dimitry, I I haven't build the HotSpot with MinGW - that would be a completely different project. I've just used the MinGW/MSYS environment (i.e. shell, make, various Unix-tools) to build the OpenJDK. The build still uses MSVC as compiler. Building the HotSpot with the GCC from MinGW should be

Volker, Thank you for amazing work! Just a curious: 1. Do you have any performance numbers for hotspot built with MinGW? Is it as fast as one built with MS VC? 2. Did you see any issues with third-party JNI code? Thank you! -Dmitry On 2012-03-08 22:00, Volker Simonis wrote: > This thread wil

This sounds very interesting. I have no experience with MinGW/MSYS, but will most definitely start looking into it asap and see how hard it would be to get the new build compatible with it. /Erik On 2012-03-08 19:00, Volker Simonis wrote: This thread will probably never end (Windows 2046 :)

An interesting tidbit... I was talking to the JavaFX RE team which does builds on Windows XP and Windows 2003 X64. They have always used CYGWIN for builds, but there isn't many Makefiles used on Windows, it's mostly Ant scripts. So CYGWIN is used but probably not a major player. No MKS was ever

Fantastic information set. Many thanks for all this digging. I suspect, that our build infrastructure work may help, in that if we get rid of the nested makes, then I can only assume we will be doing fewer stat() calls, but I think we still have a problem. A year or so ago, I managed to reduce
