frank wong, You say that you are using Solaris on a new kind of achitecture. There is but four architectures that Solaris runs under: Sparc, Sparc 64-bit, x86, and x64. Since Solaris is under Development by Oracle, and Java is under Development by Oracle, and Solaris is only available for Sparc and x64 based architectures, then why not just use the latest release of Java for Solaris from Oracle's web site? Java is available for Solaris Sparc, Sparc 64-bit, x86 and x64. If I'm not mistaken, current releases of Java from Oracle have OpenJDK development roled into it. Since Java for Solaris is already available for the four different architecture types of Solaris, then OpenJDK for Solaris ought to already be available for the same architectures.

I have a new kind of architecture with Solaris, I want to port OpenJdk to this platform. So I wonder if there is any tutorial to teach me how to port OpenJdk to a new platform. (Maybe can tell me which part of OpenJDK need to be modified?)

Thanks
