2018-10-02oeqa: runtime: java: enable test_java8_jar_comp_mode for armv7Richard Leitner
As commit "openjdk-8: add aarch32 port 8u172b11" introduced support for the aarch32 port of openjdk-8 enable the test_java8_jar_comp_mode test for ARMv7 machines. This is done by skipping the test only for machines which have armv{4-6} in their tunes. Furthermore update the "Known Limitations" section in the README. This patch depends on OE-Core rev 10b935c713748346aea6c36c2f41e0ae6c320821, named "oeqa/core/decorator: add skipIfInDataVar" Signed-off-by: Richard Leitner <richard.leitner@skidata.com> Acked-by: Henning Heinold <henning@itconsulting-heinold.de>

2016-08-12README: fix branches of openembedded layers we depend onRichard Leitner
Since 33fbcd43 (rxtx: Add remove-libtool class to remove all .la files) rxtx requires the remove-libtool class. This class was introduced in the krogoth branch of openembedded-core and not backported. Therefore update the branch names in the README to "krogoth".

2016-01-04openjdk-8-native: fix improper do_install and PROVIDESJackie Huang
We had: virtual/jar-native provided by fastjar-native virtual/java-native provided by cacao-native and jamvm-native virtual/javac-native provided by ecj-bootstrap-native Then openjdk-8-native added and also provides: virtual/java-native and virtual/javac-native (it also installs ${STAGING_BINDIR_NATIVE}/jar but doesn't add virtual/jar-native in the PROVIDES) which introduces circular dependencies, java-bootstrap-components.bbclass is to avoid the circular dependencies but it's not a correct way since it make two conflicted packages build into the same sysroot: DEPENDS_prepend_class-native = " ecj-bootstrap-native " DEPENDS_prepend_class-target = " virtual/javac-native " virtual/javac-native is provided by openjdk-8-native, and it assumed that ecj-bootstrap-native, fastjar-native and cacao-native/jamvm-native are always built before openjdk-8-native, then in the do_install of penjdk-8-native, it removes them from staging dirs first, then install (create symlinks for) these files in staging dirs directly, which results with empty sstate and builds from sstate cache or builds not in this assumption will fail. The fixes here includes: - Revert "meta-java: rely on well known bootstrap-path" in previous commit to remove the improper java-bootstrap-components.bbclass - Do not let openjdk-8-native provides jar, java and javac, just like what we do in icedtea7-native, which can provides but not to avoid circular dependencies and conflicts. - make cacao-native back to provide virtual/java-native, and ecj-bootstrap-native back to provide virtual/javac-native - Add back provider settings in README. - Remove the update-alternatives in openjdk-8-native, it doesn't work for native package.

2015-12-08openjdk-8: add recipes for openjdk-8 and openjre-8Jens Rehsack
This adds openjdk-8 for native and target builds and allows a stripped openjre-8 being built as well instead of trying to cherry-pick jre components from jdk-image. The recipes allow building openjdk-8 with or without: * x11 * cups * alsa/pulseaudio and let packager enable unlimited-crypto, if desired. To support certificate based java libraries, cacerts is created based on ca-certificates from OE-core. Since there can be only one PROVIDES for virtual/java-native and virtual/javac-native, move the provides to openjdk-8-native (I think everyone agrees it's a better choice than ecj-bootstrap-native). Plus: Applying a fix from openjdk-9 repository which fixes build issues using gcc5 Signed-off-by: Jens Rehsack <sno@netbsd.org> Signed-off-by: Maxin B. John <maxin.john@intel.com>

For more details see: http://blog.fuseyism.com/index.php/2015/10/23/security-icedtea-2-6-2-for-openjdk-7-released/ Furthermore the patches directory for OpenJDK-7 was renamed to avoid the version number.
