Hello, let me first introduce myself as this is my first post on this list. I am working on integrating jsr223 support in the netrexx 3.03 compiler/interpreter (www.netrexx.org) and I am testing with (apart from netrexx code itself of course) Nashorn and I want to add some examples of how to script JavaFX in addition to using JavaFX in compiled code. For both I need a working JavaFx installation, and I chose the path of building it myself (which most of the time leads to better understanding. I started with building OpenJDK 8, and apart from the need to unset my classpath first (as I found out) and edit the gcc.make file of hotspot, this succeeded.
Now I am trying to build OpenJFX. I have gone past the hurdle of the Gradle buiildfile requiring a JDK build number larger than 100 - I set this to 0 and it happily trucks on - but now if have hit a showstopper that I need your help with. These is the complete message stream I receive: ==================== The ConfigurationContainer.add() method has been deprecated and is scheduled to be removed in Gradle 2.0.
