beginner questions

[Alan Stange]

Hello all,

I'm new to poking around the JDK sources on a Mac.    I'm curious what tool chain most people are using.   Typically, for C++ code I'm just using emacs.  Is xcode able to handle a project the size of the JDK?   If yes, does any one have any pointers on how best to configure xcode handle the JDK sources?

Thanks much!

PS  I'm built the sources on two different systems and have been running SPECjvm2008 just to exercise the build.
