How to checkout the openJDK read-only SVN?

Mercurial or subversion?

Mark Reinhold wrote ([1]) that OpenJDK would use Mercurial, but it is
currently using subversion.

Was there a change of direction or should we expect a migration to
Mercurial in the coming months?

BTW I like subversion and would be happy if it stayed put.

I read at the open-jdk irc that they only have an
internal mercurial repository set up for testing at
this time.  Im skeptical that it will remain
subversion since it seems to have been poo-pooed
because of the difficulties/inefficiencies of doing
distributed development... or something like that.  Im
sure someone will correct me on this. :)

Re: Mercurial or subversion?

I believe the plan of record is to migrate to Mercurial.  A subversion
repository will be available until we can switch over.

Where does jtreg fit into the big picture?

Hi,

I was taking a gander at jtreg and saw that its how
you run the tests for the compiler.  Is this going to
be the tool that will be used for all testing of JDK
components as they become available?  I see there's a
mailing list for it specifically so Im going to take a
mad guess and say yes.

Re: Where does jtreg fit into the big picture?

Well, the harness choice has been a long-running debate inside our team 
for a long time.  For whatever it's worth we have several different 
harnesses in use.

The jtreg harness is largely used by the SE development groups for the 
unit and regression tests.  The JCK team has its own harness (Java Test) 
from which jtreg is derived.  You may have seen the jtharness project 
that just launched a day or two ago on java.net.  The quality team has 
our own harness we call Tonga.

I don't know if there is a set plan of record (yet) regarding an 
official test harness.  My opinion is this could be a topic of 
discussion whether there should be an "official" test harness, and if so 
what it should be, what the requirements are, etc.
