Also, use of ant 1.8.4 might work fine, but we have always advised ant 1.7.1.

just so you are warned.
Dito with jdk6, we try and use jdk6u18, but newer versions should work, that's
All paths supplied to the ALT variables and things like ANT_HOME need to be in
the c:/ style paths.
Ignore what the ant scripts echo in error messages, or compiler warnings,
that's a red herring.

and ANT_HOME needs to be C:/Ope
I'm on my phone so can't check this specific case but we do have slightly
more up to date instructions on the adoptopenjdk.java.net wiki for windows
builds, so perhaps you can try there.

PS: Yes these instructions are coming back to OpenJDK working on that with
Dalibor soon
