This README file contains build instructions for the JavaTM 2 SDK, Standard Edition, v1.4.1 (J2SDK 1.4.1) Community Source Release. Building the source code for the Java 2 SDK requires a high level of technical expertise. Sun provides the source code primarily for technical experts who want to conduct research, port the platform to new operating systems and hardware, or add enhancements that require access to platform internals. If you are not a technical professional in one of these categories, this release is probably not for you.
This community source release contains all the source code and makefiles required for building J2SDK 1.4.1 for the SolarisTM Operating Environment (hereafter "Solaris"), Microsoft Windows platforms, and Linux.The source release has the following top-level directories.
- control
- The control directory contains the makefiles necessary for building the entire J2SE release, including the Java HotSpot VMs and the runtime libraries, tools and utilities.
- hotspot
- The hotspot directory contains the source code and makefiles necessary for building the Java HotSpot Client VM and the Java HotSpot Server VM.
- j2se
- The j2se directory contains the source code and makefiles necessary for building everything in the J2SDK 1.4.1 except the VMs, including runtime libraries, tools and utilities.
The JavaTM Web Start product ships with the J2SDK 1.4.1 binary release. The source code for the Java Web Start product is available in a separate Sun Community Source release.
For further instructions on how to build the J2SDK, see Build Overview.
