thanks a lot for your help,<br> actually the freetype needs to be built, the one supplied with cygwin directly doesnt work.<br> I had to just open the Visual Studio project file from freetype-2.3.5\builds\win32\visualc and open it is Visual
<a href="http://Studio.net">Studio.net</a> 2003 (need to change its version from 8.00 to 7.10 otherwise it wont open)<br>and compile the project, it will produce the required .lib files , which can be given to ALT_FREETYPE_LIB_PATH
<br>i did the same and it is working fine now.(the build is running now and passed the point where it used to get stuck while freetype check)<br><br>I could not use the bat file at <a onclick="return top.js.OpenExtLink(window,event,this)" href="http://mail.openjdk.java.net/pipermail/build-dev/2007-August/000187.html" target="_blank">
http://mail.openjdk.java.net/pipermail/build-dev/2007-August/000187.html</a><br>because i couldnt find the gnumake command for cygwin (probably it needs MKS) and i dont have MKS .<br><br>Thanks a lot once again.<br>-Regards

archives and finding Igor's posts on the subject, and work from there. Make
sure you have the latest version of FreeType, because it sounds like yours may
be the wrong version. Also, when building using the b17 (most recent) drop, build
with "OPENJDK=true" on the command line.</span></p>

<p style="margin-bottom: 12pt;">hi all,<br>
I am a newbie for openjdk build so forgive if it seems
fairly easy.<br>
I am trying to build openjdk on windows xp sp2. have gone through all setup and
tools installation and successfully able to build hotspot jvm. <br>
but when I am trying to build complete jdk it is giving the following error.<br>
ERROR: FreeType version 2.3.0 or higher is required.<br>
<br>
freetype is installed by cygwin itself, I downloaded the binary version also
and putting that in to the path is not making any difference, is there any
specific way to do that? <br>
-Regards<br>
