Error building hotspot with shark/zero (original) (raw)

I haven’t tried LLVM 3.4 yet (compiling it right now) but it seems some method signatures have changed. Let’s see if I can make it work...

Hi, I'm attempting build openJDK7 with SHARK/ZERO and am encountering the following when using llvm-3.4:

I note there were other issues getting this far, like where 3.4 keeps its include files (in /usr/include/llvm/IR/...) so there are probably other changes of significance. Neale
