  1. OpenJDK 7 is an open source implementation of version 7 of the
  2. Java Development Kit, Standard Edition. It includes tools for developing,
  3. testing, and running programs written in Java.
  4. apache-ant is a required dependency and you have to install it before
  5. you build openjdk. However, you do not need to install Oracle's jdk,
  6. since it's only a runtime dependency of apache-ant.
  7. Before installing this package please consider any other jdk's/jre's
  8. that you have already installed as they may cause conflicts with the
  9. PATH, JAVA_HOME and MANPATH variables.
  10. After installing the package you will need to logout/reboot your machine
  11. as it will add new files to the /etc/profile.d folder.
  12. This script may take a couple of hours to complete and will require
  13. about 11 GB of disk space for its temporary directory. It defaults to
  14. "/tmp/SBo" and you may redefine it like this:
  15. TMP=/your/temporary/dir ./openjdk.SlackBuild
  16. The 'cacerts' binary is a keystore containing CA certificates which
  17. are used by Java applications. It is taken from the CentOS package
  18. 'ca-certificates-2015.2.4-65.0.1.el6_6.noarch.rpm'.
  19. If you get an error like
  20. Internal compiler error: java.lang.NullPointerException at
  21. org.eclipse.jdt.internal.compiler.ReadManager.run(ReadManager.java:166)
  22. simply run the build again. This happens early so it shouldn't be that of a
  23. problem. At least 1 out of 5 runs so far have always succeded.
