JDK 7?

[davisford]

Hi @pwnall -- thanks a lot for contributing this project. I added a couple pull requests for issues with the vm-setup.sh script that I ran into.

Just a quick question -- do you (or anyone) happen to know if the Chromium build will work with the latest JDK 7u* ? -- as opposed to JDK 6u*?

@davisford thank you very much for the pull requests!

Sorry I'm really behind on the queue in this project. I have been slammed with work at my internship.

I cannot speak for the Chromium team, but I have a feeling that they'll stick to the SDK that Android toolset is targeting.

@pwnall thank you for doing the legwork. I may need to utilize this project for something significant. Right now I am in the proof-of-concept phase to determine if what we are trying to do is feasible.

I'm going to maintain my fork, and I'll send over pull requests that I think you may find useful.

Just FYI: I did rebuild Chromium myself, and updated the src/libs/.pak -- I'm using the https://github.com/chrisekelley/AlloChrome test app as a starting point from @chrisekelley -- one thing I noticed is that the latest Chromium is considerably faster now in the Arm QEMU emulator. Using your pre-built binaries, I was not able to even fully load cnn.com and the pixie and three.js demos would not fully run. Now they do. I still have a ton of errors / warnings in the console, but I'm trying to digest them all and see what can be fixed.

I'll probably push my latest chromium build into my fork. If you're interested, you can pull it from there and try the latest.
