About build platform support

In an open source project such as OpenJDK, for a build platform to be supported, someone has to step up and support it. This page intends to list what platforms OpenJDK can build on, and who (if any) in the community is supporting those platforms

Officially and community supported build platforms

Support for building on different platforms come in two varieties: official support and community support.

Oracle defines a number of official build platforms, with carefully specified versions of operating systems, compilers and other build tools. If you report a failure to build on any of these platforms, the report will be processed with high priority from the build team in Oracle. Under normal circumstances, a build on any of these platforms will always succeed. 

In addition to the official build platforms supported by Oracle, OpenJDK can normally be built on many more platforms. For these platforms, there is no guarantee from Oracle that the build will succeed. The Oracle build team can help to solve some problems encountered, but only on a best-effort basis. In addition to the Oracle build team, other companies and members of the OpenJDK community at large is welcome to help with making OpenJDK compile on these platforms. , and can of course make similar commitments like the one Oracle has made. Please keep this page up to date with any such efforts.

The The official and community supported build platforms are listed below. Note that build support is different for different versions of the JDK. We welcome updates from the community to the this list of community supported platforms. If you have succeeded succeeded (or not!)  in in building OpenJDK on a platform that is substantially different from the ones already listed, please document your experience in the list.
