Compile and install OpenJDK7 source code on CentOS 6.5

The open-source OpenJDK version can be used to obtain the source code in two ways:

• Get the source code directly from Repository through the Mercurial code version management tool, but the speed is too slow and it takes several hours

• Download the officially packaged source code package directly (recommended)

Download the source code openjdk-7u6-fcs-src-b24-28_aug_2012.zip and decompress it as follows:

Http://www.java.net/download/openjdk/jdk7u6/promoted/b24/openjdk-7u6-fcs-src-b24-28_aug_2012.zip
