While you are there, if the Wiki doesn't already say it (I think it
does) then note that this presumes you have removed jfxrt.jar from the
jre/lib/ext directory of your JDK.

I just checked the wiki and it's not documented. I will update it.

Hi Felipe!
thanks, this are good News :-)
Well yesterday i had some issues with the build bc the famous Windows
updates Feature screwed things up .. however, i've recently fixed it
so i'll try it today.
Just another question concerning testing with the "build from
sources": i guess i can just run the example apps located in
<openjfx>/apps/ ? What would be the proper way to invoke one of them
and make sure the proper jfx is loaded?
Do i have to add it to the boot cp? Or is it enough to just put it on
the classpath?

Hi Jann,
I have re-enabled all the accessibility code in
hg.openjdk.java.net/openjfx/8u-dev/rt
Notes:
I have also released the fix for JAWS (RT-37530). But before testing
text
edits you will need to add a setting to JAWS, see
https://javafx-jira.kenai.com/browse/RT-37609
You still need the -Djavafx.accessible.force=true on Windows 7,
but very
soon that will not be needed anymore, see:
https://javafx-jira.kenai.com/browse/RT-37702
Internally we did virtually all our testing using Narrator and
VoiceOver,
which are the native screen readers on Windows and MacOSX
respectively.
I believe you will be the first to try JAWS and NVDA on Windows 7.
Let me
know how it goes.
Regards
Felipe

Hi Felipe,
i tried with the latest available EA build, java -version tells me:
java version "1.8.0_20-ea"
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.8.0_20-ea-b19)
Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 25.20-b19, mixed mode, sharing)
Also i used Jaws 15 (-.0.9 i think) and as an alternative NVDA
14.2.
Hum, not quite sure about the narrator tool: i guess thats the one
that shipps with windows? Well i can try this too though i'm not
really used to it :)
Maybe it's better to just wait until the code is back and test with
the current sources.. So we have the same base and know exactly
what
we expect for the tests.

Hi Jann,
That is great that you got to build JavaFX, it will make much
easier to
test
patches and fixes going forward.
That said, assuming that you downloaded jdk1.8.0_20 b19 or less,
accessibility should have worked.
What is the output of java -version ? Can you try Narrator ?
I’ll put the code back early next week, either Monday or Tuesday.
You can track the progress here:
https://javafx-jira.kenai.com/browse/RT-37536
I’ll email the list when the code is out.

I think i've just installed the 32 bit C++ compilers only.

build
with the VS 2010 express (as suggested at the wiki).
So i'll wait until the accessibility portion is back in the

Yes looks like i have an issue with looking up cl.exe.

Actually cl.exe is located at: C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft

I've also tried to run the build from the cygwin terminal and as
well
from the visual studio command prompt where i could call cl.exe
directly .. Always the same result.
Is there a parameter to specify where theVS compiler and
stuff is
located? btw. i checked that the %VS100COMNTools% variable is
set
properly.
What else could i check? Thanks in advance :)

When I've seen this in the past it's been related to the

To be clear, you will still use the 8u-dev repo at the
existing
URL:
http://hg.openjdk.java.net/openjfx/8u-dev/rt
It's just that after Monday the repo will "become" the
place
where
8u40
work is done.
Regarding the build, it is a bit painful to set up for
Windows,
but
not
too bad as long as you don't need to build WebKit. We
would be
interested in hearing whether the instructions on the
Wiki are
sufficient for you to get the build working.

Ok, let us know how you get on with building FX.
NOTE: The accessibility code is not there in 8u20 so
you will
just
be
ensuring that you can build on Windows (there is nothing
there
to
test). The accessibility code will be going back into
8u40 on
Monday
or Tuesday so you'll need to get that release at that
time
and
build
it instead when it becomes available. It's good to
debug the
build
process though because it can be painful building from
source.

Today i tried the latest ea of jdk1.8.0_20 and sample

I've just installed the jdk, changed my JAVA_HOME and

Hello Jann!
As soon as the 8u40 repos open, the Accessibility
code will
be
put back
along with the recent fixes for JAWS. Since OpenJFX
(and the
JDK) does
not have nightly builds, unless you want to wait for
an EA
build
of
8u40
or 9, you will need to get OpenJFX and build it.
This is
really
the
best way to work with the team anyway because you
can get
fixes
as they
are made. EA builds take a while to come out and there
is no
substitute
for running on the latest code base.
Unfortunately due to Microsoft, building OpenJFX is
a bit
harder
on
Windows. However, it is doable and the build
instructions
should
be
complete. If they are not (and if you hit any
problems),
please
post
back to this list.
Here are the build instructions:
https://wiki.openjdk.java.net/display/OpenJFX/Building+OpenJFX
Many committers use an IDE (you don't have to) and
OpenJFX is
supports
the three major IDE vendors:
https://wiki.openjdk.java.net/display/OpenJFX/Using+an+IDE
Looking forward to working with you,
Steve

Hi Jann,
Unfortunately Linux support is not in the plan for

Windows 7 is supported and we have recently fixed JAWS
support
(see
https://javafx-jira.kenai.com/browse/RT-37530 and
https://javafx-jira.kenai.com/browse/RT-37609).
Unfortunately due to the 8u20 to 8u40 transition
the code
has
not
being
released yet, but soon.
The majority of our testing was done using
Narrator. That

I also

On the Mac we tested with VoiceOver.
