Where to report issues of OpenJDK when you're not a OpenJDK developer?

问题


First I thought it's strange that there's no link to a bug tracker on the OpenJDK project page, then I found bugs.openjdk.java.net, but it's only for accredited project members. How do people outside the ivory tower contribute issues? There's the mailing list and some people call sending issues and patches to a mailing list bug tracking... but the development and usage of bug tracker contradicts.

I wanted also to report a bug and the only place I could find is the following one:

http://bugreport.java.com/

I hope it is the correct place, Oracle engineer might end up creating an issue in the bugs.openjdk.java.net if it happen to be really an bug.

Hope this helps

For mere mortals see csauvanet's answer :-)

If you're curious who can get direct access to the bug database...

From (https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/):

Everyone with OpenJDK Author status or above has a [JDK Bug System] account which may be used to create and edit bugs. Those without accounts can view bugs anonymously.

To understand that, you need to navigate the various "role" definitions:

http://openjdk.java.net/bylaws#author

From Section 7:

An Author for a Project is a Contributor who has been granted the right to create changesets intended to be pushed into a specific Project’s code repositories, but does not have the right to push such changesets directly.

From Section 2:

A Contributor is a Participant who has signed the Oracle Contributor Agreement (OCA), or who works for an organization that has signed that agreement or its equivalent and makes contributions within the scope of that work and subject to that agreement. A Contributor may submit changes larger than a simple patch, may propose new Projects, and may take on various roles within Groups and Projects.

and ...

A Participant is an individual who has subscribed to one or more OpenJDK mailing lists. A Participant may post messages to a list, submit simple patches, and make other kinds of small contributions.

So the bar is set pretty high. :-/

UDPATE (Nov 2019): You can however add Additional information to a bug. From the FAQ:

File a new incident with the subject line "Additional information to JDK-XXXXXXX'. Replace XXXXXXX with the reference number received when the report is filed. We are working on a system where you will be able to provide additional information to the existing bug.

(Not sure if this is new or I just missed it earlier.)
