Building javac from the Hg snapshot

[Bharath Ravi Kumar]

 <mlvm-dev at openjdk.java.net>Hi,

I'm looking to build javac for the first time as a preliminary step to
exploring the DVM (in particular, exploring John Rose's anonymous classes
prototype). However, the snapshot that I downloaded from
http://hg.openjdk.java.net/jdk7/jdk7/langtools is not building fine out of
the box. I'd appreciate if someone could point out the right way of
downloading only the compiler bundle. (I did read the openjdk compiler pages
to no avail.) While I'm aware that this mailing list is specifically for the
DVM, I'm posing this question here since this is a smaller distribution list
compared to compiler-dev and I would be spamming fewer people.
Thanks for the help. My apologies again for the spam.

Thanks,
Bharath
