Building Hotspot and JDK

[westblob]

The Hotspot FAQ states that you need a working JDK installed in your system
to build it. I'd like to know what it is used for, since hotspot is written
in C++.

I can see two java projects, one to make dependencies and an agent (is it
optional or strictly required?). Am I ok, or there is something more?

Regards
