How can developers use the NetBeans IDE to get started in working with this code?
Sun has created pre-built NetBeans projects and incorporated this project metadata directly into the open-sourced OpenJDK code base. This NetBeans integration makes it intuitive and easy to use NetBeans and also Sun Studio to dive into the OpenJDK source code and begin working on the platform right away. Once you’ve inspected the code and made changes, the NetBeans “Build Project” command lets you easily build modules.
