JavaFX Message-ID: The Amazon Corretto JDK8 has now been released. At a first glance it seems to have JavaFX on board but if you dig a little bit deeper your will realize that this is actually good for nothing. You can neither play video nor audio with it and the WebView also does not work because all the native libraries are missing. I wonder who Amazon thinks it is doing a favor by offering such a castrated Java version. They should either leave JavaFX out or support it completely. If you are still on Java 8 and want to use JavaFX on OpenJDK, ZuluFX or Liberica (FX) are the better choice. Just my two (?-) cents. What do you think? Michael PS: This was tested with the Mac-Version.

JavaFX In-Reply-To: References: Message-ID: <5C548CCC.3070107@oracle.com> My guess is that they did not look closely enough at the build instructions since you need to specify -PCOMPILE_MEDIA=true -PCOMPILE_WEBKIT=true to get these built - they aren't built by default. So I suppose no testing was done ... -phil.

Is this 11.0.2? I could not find this information on the OpenJFX pages. The "Download OpenJFX Builds" from the main wiki, takes me to https://openjfx.io/ which seems to indicate 11.0.2 is the latest release. However, the link that points to the source downloads seems to have version 13 as the current one.

The link to the sources is a link to the source repository, which is always under development. You can browse the sources for JavaFX 11.0.2 on github at https://github.com/javafxports/openjdk-jfx/tree/jfx-11 Note that there are also early-access releases for JavaFX 12 (see https://gluonhq.com/products/javafx/#ea) which are build using the jfx-12 tree, which you can browse at https://github.com/javafxports/openjdk-jfx/tree/jfx-12). The head-development at https://github.com/javafxports/openjdk-jfx is a mirror of http://hg.openjdk.java.net/openjfx/jfx-dev/rt and serves as the source for JavaFX 13 and beyond.
