Hi Alan,

I've opened the JConsole project from JDK7 b51 sources and ran into some errors. See attachment.

Can you give me some hints?

When I set .openjdk\build.properties to: bootstrap.jdk=C:/Programme/Java/jdk1.7.0 the compile warning disappears, but the errors in editor remain.

I think, JConsole project would be a good "template" to create my own "nio-charset" project.

Additionally, I don't see how to connect to the Mercurial repository. There is no "Mercurial" menu item on projects node, although there are plenty .hg* files in the project.. From Subversion I'm used to have "Subversion" menu item automatically if the .svn folders are present in project.

-Ulf

: Alan, yes, I'm considering this. I regularly observe the regarding changes from jdk6 to jdk7, to be up to date. The SingleByte.java approach consumes little more memory for encoder maps than legacy jdk6 SingleByteDecoder, so my approach only consumes 20 % against this. Disk-footprint of SingleByte.java approach is 25 % against the legacy JDK 6 implementation, but initializing the b2c char[] needs copying the internal char[] from String constant and then throwing it to GC.

In my current project, I only build a patch-jar using NetBeans 6.5, which I preload via -Xbootclasspath to test it using JUnit 4.5. This works fine on my system, after I've solved some tricky problems (using same JDK version for running my code + running NetBeans didn't work) Creating changesets against JDK7, I think, It's a must to also provide working MAKE + TEST stuff. So (1.) I should install a jdk build environment on my computer, but I hesitated until now because of: - I only have 60 GB disk 1.5 GB ram 2 GHz single core mobile computer for all my work including private stuff. Does that smoothly work ? Yes, it's possible to build with this spec. The only thing is you are on Windows and this is much harder to setup for the build when compared to Linux or Solaris. - I only have MS VS 6 enterprise, but MS VS 2008 is required to build JDK7. Is there any chance without that, if I don't touch native code ? Currently we use VC7 (Visual Studio .NET 2003) but are in transition. I think the jdk repository will build with the express (free) compilers but I'll need to check on the status of that. For what you are doing it may be that you don't care about native code so running with patches that are prepended to the bootclasspath is okay. -Alan.
