Windows XP: openjdk 7 b26, InstallShield issues

[Marco Trudel]

Hey all

I'm compiling openjdk on Windows XP. I get a working jdk, despite the 
sparse documentation. The problem is that the compilation aborts 
somewhere around the latest steps when trying to create the 
InstallShield setup.
It seems that this openjdk version requires InstallShield DevStudio 9 
which is no longer available and extremely expensive. InstallShield 2008 
does not work.
So my question: Is there a way to skip this step? I actually don't even 
want the installer and surely don't want to pay for InstallShield (I was 
happy to see the progress from MKS to Cygwin only to find out that 
another commercial product is required now).

I tried setting BUILD_INSTALL=false, but this creates another 
compilation error.


thanks
Marco
