Raw String Literals

[Jim Laskey]

We think things have "settled in" with respect to Raw String Literals language changes and library support. If all things fall in place, we will probably move http://openjdk.java.net/jeps/326 forward soon.

We are hoping to make builds available, but if you want to test the waters.

hg clone http://hg.openjdk.java.net/amber/amber <http://hg.openjdk.java.net/amber/amber> amber-raw-string-literals
cd amber-raw-string-literals
hg update raw-string-literal
./configure …
make images docs

export PLATFORM= ...
java home is at build/${PLATFORM}/images/jdk
javadoc for String library support is at build/${PLATFORM}/images/docs/api/java.base/java/lang/String.html

Cheers,

— Jim
