Hi all,

I just tested the new version 3.3.0 of the maven-jlink-plugin.
And I can happily annouce that it now works perfectly with JavaFX. Due to the automatic module detection, no errors are thrown anymore and it just works.

Also very nice: It is easy to provide JavaFX JMods and that also just works. This makes the JLink functionality in the javafx-maven-plugin obsolete (They already thought about deprecating it in favor of the official maven plugin).

Thanks for the work!

Question: Is there a need for more contributors for the maven-jlink plugin? If so, I'd be happy to help (Mostly if there are new features or support for JLink plugins, PR #603). Background: I heavily use the Java module system, especially with/in JavaFX applications. And optimize with JLink and JPackage to be as small as possible. I'm also a JavaFX Committer.

Betreff: Re: Next maven-jlink-plugin release?

Hi, sorry for the late reply.

I think we can cut a release soon, but there are a few simple issues
which we could include first, if you do not mind.
E.g. the zip directory prefix, as well as the jlink plugins. If you don't mind?

Hi all,

I want to ask if there is a schedule for the next maven-jlink-plugin release?
I am asking because I am especially interested in the change made in 
https://github.com/apache/maven-jlink-plugin/pull/598
and would like to test this on existing JavaFX applications that have 
'suffered' from it.

As a side note, this could also determine whether the javafx-maven-plugin 
discontinues its jlink support,
as the official maven-jlink-plugin works and provides everything needed to link 
a functioning JavaFX runtime environment (from what I see).
