OpenJFX 1.8 build issues

[Mani Sarkar]

Hi Dhevendran,

Thanks for sending me the log files. DId you get a chance to look at our
build instructions on the java.net wiki (pls do confirm in your return
mail):
Get Source (Windows):
https://java.net/projects/adoptopenjdk/pages/GetSource#MS_Windows
Build: https://java.net/projects/adoptopenjdk/pages/Build

The FreeType2 aspect of the installation instructions are to be found here:
https://java.net/projects/adoptopenjdk/pages/BuildWindows#Download_the_Freetype2_project

I'm writing to you after looking at the log files - not in great detail but
just the key points around freetype2.

I also found another link that points to the same problem as yourself:
http://mail.openjdk.java.net/pipermail/build-dev/2012-February/005608.html

Have you also find out the value in the variable FREETYPE2_LIB_PATH as
mentioned by David and Erik from the OpenJDK mailing list?

Let me know if you have already managed to resolve this issue?

Cheers,
mani
