Hi all,

We have a custom system running on FreeBSD 6.3 on which we need to run a java package which is developed using Java 7 features introduced after 2010.

We have taken the tip source of openjdk-7u6 from http://hg.openjdk.java.net/bsd-port/bsd-port/jdk/

Here is how we are running the build of this java code:

JDK_PATH=/root/openjdk6

gmake ARCH=i586 ARCH_DATA_MODEL=32 PLATFORM=bsd COMPILER_PATH=/usr/bin CC_VERSION=gcc BOOTDIR=$JDK_PATH SLASH_JAVA=/ JDK_IMPORT_PATH=$JDK_PATH CACERTS_FILE=~/openjdk-7u6/jdk/src/share/lib/security/cacerts CC=/usr/bin/cc ALT_FREETYPE_HEADERS_PATH=/usr/local/include  ALT_FREETYPE_LIB_PATH=/usr/local/lib  LIBARCH=i386 ARCH_FAMILY=i586 ARCHPROP=x86 OS_VERSION=6.3 ANT_HOME=/usr/local ALT_HOTSPOT_IMPORT_PATH=$JDK_PATH clean jdk_only

The build always stops with the following error messages:

/root/openjdk-7u6/build/bsd-i586/lib/i386/client/libjvm.so:

                libstdc++.so.5 => /usr/lib/libstdc++.so.5 (0x48a79000)

Can anyone guide me on how to go about compiling this Java version on FreeBSD 6.3, it’s a specific requirement so I don’t have an option of changing my FreeBSD version and neither will our java program run on any version of Java 7 without the 2010 features.

I have earlier tried running Java 7 from: http://ftp.riken.jp/pub/FreeBSD/ports/i386/packages-6-stable/java/openjdk-7.0.117.tbz but it didn’t run our service properly as the Java Features were missing.

I look forward to a reply,

Regards,
