The complete requirements, pre-requisites, and steps to build OpenJDK 7 port on Mac OSX are described here. The steps are very clearly explained and here are the exact ones I followed on my MacBook Pro 10.7.2:
- Confirm the version of pre-installed Java as:
> java -version
java version "1.6.0_26"
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.6.0_26-b03-383-11A511c)
Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 20.1-b02-383, mixed mode) - Download and install Mercurial from mercurial.berkwood.com
(zip bundle for 10.7 is here).
It gets installed in the
/usr/local/bin
directory.
- Get the source code as (commands highlighted in bold):
hg clone http://hg.openjdk.java.net/macosx-port/macosx-port
destination directory: macosx-port
requesting all changes
adding changesets
adding manifests
adding file changes
added 437 changesets with 364 changes to 33 files
updating to branch default
31 files updated, 0 files merged, 0 files removed, 0 files unresolved
cd macosx-port
chmod 7555 get_source.sh
./get_source.sh

# hg clone http://hg.openjdk.java.net/macosx-port/macosx-port/corba corba
requesting all changes

adding file changes
added 396 changesets with 3275 changes to 1379 files
. . .
# exit code 0
# cd ./corba && hg pull -u
pulling from http://hg.openjdk.java.net/macosx-port/macosx-port/corba
searching for changes
no changes found
# exit code 0
# cd ./jaxp && hg pull -u
pulling from http://hg.openjdk.java.net/macosx-port/macosx-port/jaxp
searching for changes
no changes found
# exit code 0
- Install Xcode
from the App Store. Include
/Developer/usr/bin
in PATH.
Note: JDK 1.6.0_26 ame pre-installed on my laptop and I installed Xode after that. The compilation went fine and there was no need to re-install the Java for Mac OS X as mentioned in the original steps.
- Build the code as:
make ALLOW_DOWNLOADS=true SA_APPLE_BOOT_JAVA=true ALWAYS_PASS_TEST_GAMMA=true ALT_BOOTDIR=`/usr/libexec/java_home -v 1.6` HOTSPOT_BUILD_JOBS=`sysctl -n hw.ncpu`
The final output is shown as:

>cd build/macosx-universal/j2sdk-image/1.7.0.jdk/Contents/Home/bin
>./java -version
openjdk version "1.7.0-internal"
OpenJDK Runtime Environment (build 1.7.0-internal-arungup_2011_11_19_00_32-b00)
OpenJDK 64-Bit Server VM (build 21.0-b17, mixed mode)
