I have yet to get this working at all in my Windows environment. I cannot build JVMCI JDK due to problems trying to install Windows SDK 7.1 and I run into mx issues trying to build Graal. For example:

Downloading https://repo1.maven.org/maven2/org/hamcrest/hamcrest-core/1.3/hamcrest-core-1.3-sources.jar to C:\Users\dsimon\.mx\cache\HAMCREST_1dc37250fbc78e23a65a67fbbaf71d2e9cbc3c0b\hamcrest.sources.jar

I'm sure all of these issues can be solved fairly quickly if someone has time to go through them. I will try and find spare cycles but can't guarantee it will be anytime soon. Any contributions the community can make would be most welcome.

@Alex: Any idea why the specific issue above doesn't show up on the CI machines used to build and test Graal on Windows?

Apart from changes to .travis.yml, I suspect most of the effort will be fixing the parts of mx that are broken on Windows (I don't have a list of these issues but I know they exist!).
