SFW is the Solars Freeware consolidation, which includes a lot of FOSS software.

Official guide on OpenSolaris.org

Misc note: By default on re-invoking env -i /opt/onbld/bin/nightly yourenvscrip.sh the build process will clear up the previous build run by removing directories with rm -rf

Preparing your environment

Building SFW is a lot like building ONNV. It's recommended you build SFW on a version of ONNV that's not too far behind it (e.g. build SFW 145 on ONNV 144). Please ensure Sun Studio is set up and pkg has been installed from pkg-gate, as per the ONNV build instructions. Also ensure an up to date onbld is present for the version of SFW you're building (if you've built ONNV on the same box then that will be the case).

Dependencies

You'll need to ensure the following dependencies are installed:

Then run the following to set up the build environment:

The second command depends on which compiler you are using and how you have already configured your build environment. See http://wiki.openindiana.org/oi/Setting+up+the+recommended+build+environment

Note: If repeating builds do not repeat the docbook-catalog-install.sh, it will break stuff!

Doing a build:

You can obtain the sfwnv source from either the Sun website (selecting the correct directory and files for the version you wish to build) or use one of the hg repos like:

cd to the directory you either unpacked or cloned then edit or make a copy of usr/src/tools/env/sfw-opensolaris.sh
& invoke the build with

Variables

in usr/src/tools/env/yourenvscrip.sh 
MAKEFLAGS=k means continue on error
DMAKE_MAX_JOBS is worth cranking if you're on a multicore system
See scripts for other options available as it's well documented

    And here http://dlc.sun.com/osol/sfw/downloads/current/ sfw-src file.

      Yes, that is one source. We tend to use our own hg repo though which mirrors the hard work done by genunix.org in converting the tarballs into a version control system.

    Does sfw-gate output SVR4 package when the build is complete? 

    I only get "proto", "log", "usr" directories in the top dir，no "packages" directory, 

    and get the following error message.

    dmake: Warning: Target `install' not remade because of errors
    Current working directory /export/home/zhiwen/ws/sfw-gate/usr/src/cmd

      Yes, it outputs SVR4.

      That is an effect error message not a cause error message I think. Look further up in build.log for the actual cause error.
