Some users may require the full JDK on the target to debug their programs. This change is relatively trivial to add. While the full JDK does have programs used for compiling on a target, which is against Buildroot policy, the JDK also has several utilities used for debugging purposes, which the JRE target does not build, and Buildroot supports applications used for debugging purposes such as GDB. As such, JDK support should be available for debugging purposes, and a note in the Config.in file has been added under the JDK section, which informs the user that JDK support is for debugging purposes only and that developing on a target is not supported by Buildroot.

Buildroot is a simple, efficient and easy-to-use tool to generate embedded Linux systems through cross-compilation. The documentation can be found in docs/manual. You can generate a text document with 'make manual-text' and read output/docs/manual/manual.text. Online documentation can be found at http://buildroot.org/docs.html To build and use the buildroot stuff, do the following: 1) run 'make menuconfig' 2) select the target architecture and the packages you wish to compile 3) run 'make' 4) wait while it compiles 5) find the kernel, bootloader, root filesystem, etc. in output/images You do not need to be root to build or run buildroot. Have fun! Buildroot comes with a basic configuration for a number of boards. Run 'make list-defconfigs' to view the list of provided configurations. Please feed suggestions, bug reports, insults, and bribes back to the buildroot mailing list: buildroot@buildroot.org You can also find us on #buildroot on Freenode IRC.
