Does OpenJFX 19.0.2 fix the crash on macOS?

[Johan Vos]

Hi,

I'm trying to understand the severity of this. If I understand it
correctly, the issue (which is really a bug, no question about that) only
occurs when running with a JDK that is built with XCode 14.1 (and MacOS SDK
13).

Is that correct? If so, are there JDK builds out there that are built with
XCode 14.1? From the docs/building.md file in openjdk, I believe the daily
builds (by Oracle) are done using Xcode 10.1. I don't know what Oracle and
others are using in their JDK releases, but I would be surprised if all of
them are building with XCode 14.1?

Do you control which JDK is used, or is it up to your users to pick a JDK
and then use that one? If users are using a really recent version of the
JDK (built with Xcode 14.1) it seems to me they can also easily use a
really recent version of JavaFX (20-ea)?

I am probably missing something, so it would be good to get a better
understanding of the context?
I totally agree that we have to make it as easy as possible for end-users
to run JavaFX applications, so we should consider whatever is required to
achieve this.

Thanks,

- Johan
