<h1>OpenJDK6 Release Process</h1>

<h2>Acknowledgements</h2>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
Much of this information comes from Joe Darcy's informal notes
|
|
with edits from Lana Steuck.
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<h2>Sources</h2>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
Sources are kept in Mercurial repositories at:
|
|
<a href="http://hg.openjdk.java.net/jdk6/jdk6">
|
|
http://hg.openjdk.java.net/jdk6/jdk6</a>.
|
|
Mercurial tags are used to mark the state of each repository with a
|
|
name <b>jdk6-b<i>NN</i></b> where <b><i>NN</i></b> is a 2 or 3
|
|
digit build number.
|
|
<br>
|
|
Once the process is final, source bundles will be made available
|
|
at <a href="http://download.java.net/openjdk/jdk6/">
|
|
http://download.java.net/openjdk/jdk6/
|
|
</a>
|
|
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<h2>Release Steps</h2>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
The following steps represent the current process that should be
|
|
followed prior to tagging the repositories.
|
|
<br>
|
|
<b>NOTE:</b> Some steps may be done in parallel.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<ol>
|
|
<li>
|
|
Send out email to "jdk6-dev at openjdk.java.net"
|
|
requesting any additional changes for this release
|
|
and announcing the start of the release process.
|
|
</li>
|
|
<li>
|
|
Perform full build and test on Linux, e.g. <tt>make all && make test</tt>.
|
|
<br>
|
|
Resolve test failures and repeat as necessary.
|
|
</li>
|
|
<li>
|
|
<i>Recommended:</i> Perform same full build and test for all
|
|
supported platforms and architectures.
|
|
Leverage any available Build and Test systems.
|
|
</li>
|
|
<li>
|
|
<i>Recommended:</i> Run TCK tests.
|
|
Posting results is limited to saying:
|
|
"all the tests pass so the build in question is Java(TM) compatible."
|
|
</li>
|
|
<li>
|
|
Request that formal builds be done by Oracle Release
|
|
Engineering as a verification, but also to have the
|
|
official source bundles created and posted.
|
|
</li>
|
|
<li>
|
|
Tag all the OpenJDK6 repositories and push those changesets
|
|
into the public repositories as soon as the source bundles
|
|
from Release Engineering are publicly posted.
|
|
The tags can be created with the following command:
|
|
<blockquote>
|
|
<tt>sh ./make/scripts/hgforest.sh tag -f jdk6-b<i>NN</i></tt>
|
|
</blockquote>
|
|
</li>
|
|
<li>
|
|
Generate a Change Summary page.
|
|
</li>
|
|
<li>
|
|
Send out official email
|
|
to "jdk6-dev at openjdk.java.net"
|
|
on this OpenJDK6 release, including test results,
|
|
source bundle location, and the Change Summary page.
|
|
</li>
|
|
<li>
|
|
Post a blog entry
|
|
summarizing all release information.
|
|
</li>
|
|
</ol>
