Build error with javac Main not being found when building java.transaction module on Mac OS X

[Martijn Verburg]

Hi Magnus,

I tried:

rm -rf build
bash configure
make interim-langtools

That worked successfully and I have the interim-langtools.jar at:

/Users/karianna/Documents/workspace/AdoptOpenJDK_projects/jdk9/build/macosx-x86_64-normal-server-release/buildtools/interim-langtools.jar

=====================

Unfortunately the build still fails with a slightly different error (to
stderr) of:

Fatal Error: Unable to find package java.lang in classpath or bootclasspath
make[3]: ***
[/Users/karianna/Documents/workspace/AdoptOpenJDK_projects/jdk9/build/macosx-x86_64-normal-server-release/jdk/modules/java.transaction/_the.java.transaction_batch]
Error 3
make[2]: *** [java.transaction-java] Error 2
make[2]: *** Waiting for unfinished jobs....
make[1]: *** [main-wrapper] Error 2
make: *** [all] Error 2

===========

The debug log doesn't contain any explicit errors, but does contain the
following (I've added 2 line breaks for readability) section around
compiling that module:

===========

To Erik's later suggestion, there's also no mention of java.transaction in
the module-deps.gmk file.

Cheers,
Martijn
