| 1 There is a Python script in graal/mxtool/mx.py that simplifies working with the code | |
| 2 base. It requires Python 2.7. While you can run this script by using an absolute path, | |
| 3 it's more convenient to add graal/mxtool to your PATH environment variable so that the | |
| 4 'mx' helper script can be used. The following instructions in this file assume this | |
| 5 setup. | |
| 6 | |
| 7 Building both the Java and C++ source code comprising the Graal VM | |
| 8 can be done with the following simple command. | |
| 9 | |
| 10 mx build | |
| 11 | |
| 12 This builds the 'product' version of HotSpot with the Graal modifications. | |
| 13 To build the debug or fastdebug versions: | |
| 14 | |
| 15 mx build debug | |
| 16 mx build fastdebug | |
| 17 | |
| 18 To run one of the correspong VM instances: | |
| 19 | |
| 20 mx --product vm ... | |
| 21 mx --fastdebug vm ... | |
| 22 mx --debug vm ... | |
| 23 | |
| 24 The default is --product. |
