See http://hg.openjdk.java.net/jdk7/build/raw-file/tip/README-builds.html#hg The Forest Extension has been problematic and we are moving away from it. You can completely avoid the Forest Extension by doing: hg clone http://hg.openjdk.java.net/jdk7/jdk7 YourOpenJDK(Continue reading)

OpenJDK repos contain a script that emulates the ForestExtension. The script is normally located at make/scripts/hgforest [1]. After you have cloned the top level openjdk repository, you can use the script to do some of the operations normally handled by ForestExtension. If you really want to use the ForestExtension, Mark Wielaard maintains an updated version for use with OpenJDK: http://icedtea.classpath.org/hg/hgforest/ Cheers, Omair(Continue reading)

Hi Kelly and all, I don't know if this has been discussed before, but why not use the subrepo extension for OpenJDK. It seems to replace the forest extension and is a little easier to use, and I believe it ships with standard Mercurial. Any pros and cons?

Trust me it has been discussed. The subrepos extension has it's problems, primarily it doesn't allow us to work with partial forests or displace nested repos, and makes like difficult with open&closed situations. Various proposals have been suggested, but it always seems like we are twisting ourselves into a pretzel to use it. -kto On Jul 1, 2011, at 1:00 PM, Roman Kennke wrote: > Hi Kelly and all, > > I don't know if this has been discussed before, but why not use the > subrepo extension for OpenJDK.

I agree, subrepos are nice for the development model they support, but a pain otherwise. Forest were such a useful feature, sad they are depreciated in favour of the subrepos... however, you could still work with partial forest, the problem is that you have to remember to update the parent forest if you want changes to be propagated correctly. The script does the right thing though, so I guess there us no real reason to get back :) Mario -- Sent from HTC Desire... pgp key: http://subkeys.pgp.net/ PGP Key ID: 80F240CF Fingerprint: BA39 9666 94EC 8B73 27FA FC7C 4086 63E3 80F2 40CF http://www.icedrobot.org Proud GNU Classpath developer: http://www.classpath.org/ Read About us at: http://planet.classpath.org OpenJDK: http://openjdk.java.net/projects/caciocavallo/ Please, support open standards: http://endsoftpatents.org/ ----- Reply message ----- Da: "Kelly O'Hair" <kelly.ohair <at> oracle.com> Data: ven, lug 1, 2011 22:06 Oggetto: Forest Extension - Not to be found?

I will not have access to a computer until Monday, but you are right, we should update the docs if they are still pointing to the old requirement. I'll prepare a patch when I'm back on Monday if nobody else does it before me.

The OpenJDK legal page[1] contain a reference to (a copy of?) the Oracle Contributor Agreement[2] (cf. the
more central OCA[3]?).
The OpenJDK legal page also refers to a FAQ for the OCA[4] which might be same as the more central FAQ[5].
By either path, the OCA FAQ contains a bunch of links that are broken:
- Page 5, the "feedback through email" link points to some place on www.sun.com that bounces to a generic
Oracle and Sun page[6].
- Page 5, there is a link that says it points to version 1.5 ("in the interest of transparency"), but which in
fact points to the current version[3], and there claim to be links to versions 1.3[7] and 1.4[8], neither
of which can be found on the oss.oracle.com web site.
- Page 1 has a link to a different OCA for use by the US Government[9], which can't be found.
What would it take to bring these documents up to date?
