hg: openjfx/8u-dev/rt: RT-37832: [packager] Mac App Store Bundler fails to strip jfxmedia.dylib and strips Info.plist

[Tony Anecito]

Thanks Kevin,

Danno - Something is wrong specifically with the pkg file for Apple iTunes. The app, dmg and regular pkg all work fine. It is like there is a permissions issue and my app for that pkg can not read or write or both to the disk. It is like my entitlements file is not being read and used for the that pkg file. I do specify my entitlements file name in my ant script. How does the packager know what the entitlement file name and location is?

Thanks,
-Tony

As soon as EA builds of 8u40 start up (nor sure exactly when but likely
in 1 or 2 weeks) you can get the fix from 8u40-b01. If you don't mind
using JDK 9, the fix will be in 9-b22 which should be out on Friday or
Monday.

Not sure when / if 8u20-b23 will be available (it's the GA candidate
build and those are often not posted on java.net).

Ok. Something odd happened I never seen before and acts
like issue might be with Info.pList in the pkg file. The app file works
just fine.

<app>/Contents/PlugIns/<jdk_name>/Contents/Info.plist - we
should be preserving this as I believe apple checks the meta-data for
it.  I still haven’t been able to sign it in a way the
ApplicationLoader won’t complain, but it is just a warning at the
moment.

The fix is in the 8u40 line at the moment, and to get stuff into 8u20
involves committee approval now.  Looks good, but I don’t sit in or
listen into those meetings.  The HG repo to keep an eye on is http://hg.openjdk.java.net/openjfx/8u20/rt/, and I missed the b22 build but the repo isn’t reflecting that yet.
