Building JMC with OpenJDK

[Marcus Hirt]

Hi Christoph,

No, OpenJDK 11 will not work yet. We will have to look into OpenJDK 8.

Kind regards,
Marcus

    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
