Building JMC with OpenJDK

Hi Marcus,

thanks for the quick reply.

The fix for https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JMC-6358 by Alex Mcdonald works for me.

This one I can't confirm. For me, it only works with the Oracle JDK 8. With my OpenJDK 8 the build shows these javafx dependency errors.

I'm using this mercurial repo: http://hg.openjdk.java.net/jmc/jmc/

So, should I be able to build with OpenJDK11 (as opposed to the documentation that explicitly says it should be JDK 8)?

Thanks
Christoph
