JVMCI JDK 8 binaries released on OTN

[Doug Simon]

Hi,

There are now JVMCI JDK 8 binaries available at http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/oracle-labs/program-languages/downloads/index.html. These binaries can be used to develop Graal without having to build JVMCI. We’re still waiting for the first EA build of JDK 9 to be available that contains the latest JVMCI API changes. As such, Graal cannot yet be developed against JDK 9.

Note that the JDK binaries above are derived from an OracleJDK build. We hope to provide OpenJDK based builds at some point but can’t give any timelines just yet.
