I'm trying for a few days to build my own jdk8 on RHEL 7.3. Until now I was using the source here: http://hg.openjdk.java.net/jdk8/jdk8/
But there is also http://hg.openjdk.java.net/jdk8u/jdk8u/
1) What are the differences between the two?
2) Which one do I have to choose to get update 131 (same as oracle for now)?
When I download the source and do hg tags:
a)In jdk8, there is one jdk8-b131 with tag 939
b)In jdk8u, there is plenty of jdk8:
jdk8-b131 with tag 955
jdk8u131-b00 with tag 1888
up to jdk8u131-b11 with tag 1915
Could anyone explain to me what genius is managing this? And where do I get THE source to build my jdk at home? And Why?
Thx, Animal
