Hi to all,

Moving these questions to discuss, since I didn't get reply on bsd and macosx ports lists :

I couldn't find officials indications or documentation on how to add Rhino from Mozilla to OpenJDK build.

The only source of information found was IcedTea 1.7 (1.14) with patches/rhino.patch

  1. CLOSED_SRC test removed (jdk/make/com/sun/Makefile)

-ifndef OPENJDK

  1. rhino.jar added to build (jdk/make/com/sun/script/Makefile)

  2. sun.org.mozilla.javascript.internal.* moved to sun.org.mozilla.javascript.* (jdk/src/share/classes/com/sun/script/javascript/*)

  3. repackaged rhino.jar copied under JRE /lib/rhino.jar (jdk/make/common/Release.gmk)

  4. rhino.jar added to runtime jars (hotspot/src/share/vm/runtime/os.cpp)

All of these could be done on bsd-port and macosx-port and may be others ports.

Questions :

  1. Did there is any reason why Rhino is not included in bsd-port (and so macosx-port) like licence problems ?

  2. What's the recommanded Mozilla renaming named ?

If there is no licence problem, I may add these to openjdk-osx-build project for now, but it will be better to get them in bsd and macosx-ports.

Cheers
