Hi Marty,

I've no idea what openembedded is. There are two cross-compilation stories with OpenJDK. One is what is done externally as part of IcedTea etc and I have no knowledge of that.

The other is the cross-compilation support that we use for our embedded SE product. To utilise that you need to set:

CROSS_COMPILE_ARCH=... // must be set! ALT_COMPILER_PATH=

See the top-level README-builds.html for more details.

Hello,

I try to port OpenJDK to the OS VxWorks. The Problem is, that i cant compile it on a VxWorks-Machine, so i have to cross-compile it from a Linux machine. What I've read so far is, that i have to use openembedded to successfully cross compile OpenJDK. All sources I've found, were dated 2008. Therefore, my question is: Do I still need openembedded, or is this issue fixed now, and can i cross-compile the OpenJDK (6 or 7) project out of the box (out of the box = mainly just replace the compiler)? Greetings, Marty
