I know that it's the openjfx list, but are you also interested on other internal APIs usages?

It basically just gives a tally of each com.sun.* class that is being used, given a directory of files that are output from JDeps (where each file is the output from running JDeps against a single jar file). The more of these JDeps text files I have, the more data I can have about what APIs are being (ab)used.

My example command line instruction is what I run against Scene Builder, but please don't send me the output against your Scene Builder jar - I want to know what the output is against your projects.
