About build platform support
In an open-source community, for a build platform to be supported, someone has to step up and support it. This page intends to list what platforms the open-source JDK can build on, and who (if anyone) in the community is supporting those platforms.
Oracle defines a number of 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 build platforms supported by Oracle, the JDK can normally be built on many other 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 individuals in the OpenJDK Community are welcome to help with making the JDK 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 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 this list. If you have succeeded (or not!) in building the JDK on a platform that is substantially different from the ones already listed, please document your experience in the list.
