[External] : Re: Build issue: error: option --upgrade-module-path cannot be used together with --release

[Kevin Rushforth]

I'm not sure that will work in general. The more important thing to note 
is that we really can't build and run an actual standalone JavaFX SDK if 
the JDK already has the javafx.* modules. I'll file a bug and we can 
think about possible solutions.

Basically, though, unless you are intending to build a set of javafx.* 
modules to import into your own local custom build of the JDK, you need 
to use a boot JDK that doesn't have the javafx.* modules.
