At least for the OpenJFX without media/webkit Cygwin is used only for path manipulation (cygpath) so I don't think dropping it will boost performance at all. In fact, I just did a quick test and built OpenJFX without cygwin at all (modifying build.gradle so it will not call cygpath).

Visual Studio is the only viable option for Windows development.
When I was actively developing native Windows code, I created my own VS project which can build native dlls just fine without even calling gradle and that was huge productivity boost.

Thanks,
Vadim

If we didn’t require Cygwin the build would also be faster!

Jettisoning the MS tools would be a bad idea. The Visual Studio compiler or the 
Intel compiler are really the only reasonable options for building native code 
on Windows. I'm not aware of any professional programmer that uses GCC on 
Windows...  Not because GCC is bad, the Windows ports just aren't capable of 
compiling against a real Windows SDK. The MinGW tools come with their own 
headers to try to work around this, but the last time I checked, it just didn't 
work well enough.

That said,I think the right approach in the long term is to move the build to 
use Gradle's support for C and C++. It supports the MS compiler as well as 
MinGW on Windows and all the popular compilers on other platforms.  If we 
combined that with the ability to build just the 32bit JDK when running with 
the MS compiler, it would offer a decent solution for those using free tools on 
Windows.

Another goal should be to remove the requirement for Cygwin as it can cause its 
own set of problems. I'm not sure what it is used for that can't be done with 
Gradle and/or pure java libraries directly.

Stephen,

Sorry for the mis-communication: in my original message, I was able to do 
incremental java compilation, but hadn't tried to do the full build, since 
hadn't made changes to any of the native code. Your reply straighted me out, 
that I need to be doing full builds to pick-up changes in either the cpp or 
low-level java code.  I haven't been able to get the native builds to work, 
without it failing in either the cpp compiler or linker.

I still could use a hand to get working tooling.

Also, care to comment whether there's any plan to jetisson the MS tools in the 
openjfx project, or at least align it with openjdk9's build system?

Thanks,

Hi Richard,

Your previous email indicated that you could build, but that you can't see the 
shared libraries.

Please try adding this the VM Arguments of your Eclipse launch configuration:

   -Djava.library.path=${workspace_loc:rt}/build/sdk/rt/bin 
-Djavafx.verbose=true

Thanks,
Steve

To recap a message I sent to the list on 9/12, I'm a newbie to JavaFX, and

Stephen, I'm attempting to follow the instructions at: 
https://wiki.openjdk.java.net/display/OpenJFX/Using+an+IDE, and have found that 
the Visual Studio tools it calls out don't include the amd64 tools, have 
struggled to adapt win.gradle to VS 2011, and otherwise dulled my pick.   Also, 
when comparing the above instructions to openjdk9's build setup, I'm also 
wondering whether someone's revised the openjfx win build to use gcc, MinGW, 
Code::Blocks, clang++, or any other toolset besides the MS crud.

Rather than dragging y'all through the blow-by-blow challenges I've been 
getting hit with, what I'm hoping is that one of you who's actively developing 
on a 64-bit Windows 7+ environment is willing to lend a hand to get me set-up 
with a working rig. Please reply to just me if you're willing to help, I think 
I just need a few minutes here and there to pick the right tools, verify I'm 
working against the correct repo, etc.

Thanks in advance,

Hi Richard,

Did you follow the instructions at this link: 
https://wiki.openjdk.java.net/display/OpenJFX/Using+an+IDE ?

You are picking up a set of shared libraries that do not match the java code 
you are running in the IDE.  You need to set java.library.path.  It's on the 
wiki and I meant to update it to be something sensible.  My build puts the 
dll's in an artifacts directory:

-Djava.library.path=${workspace_loc:rt}/../artifacts/sdk/rt/bin

You will need to edit this expression to pick up the dll's from the standard 
build place (which I forget right now).

To that end, I've been trying to get 8u-dev eclipse projects setup on a Win7 
box so I can start stepping through the code. The current show-stopper is 
getting UnsatisfiedLinkErrors when the system is trying to access dlls, such as 
glass.dll.

My rig:

* jdk1.8.0_05
* eclipse-SDK-N20140722-2000-win32-x86_64 (Mars stable build, has fix
  for StackOverflow bug in eclipse j8 compiler)
* hg clone of 8u-dev as of 8/26

Setup:

* ran the gradle build (successfully)
* imported the eclipse projects in the repo, all cleanly compile (but
  had to fix cross-project links and manually locate and attach 3p libs)
* removed javafx.* and related JavaFX sources from JAVA_HOME/src
* moved jfxrt.jar to a cache directory

Failure situation:

* attempting to launch jfx apps under eclipse debugger

The following console output is typical of what I'm running into (with

Exception running application net.ess.newTools.HtmlEditor
[Dynamic-linking native method java.lang.Shutdown.halt0 ... JNI]

On the assumption that the VM is failing to load some dll, I've tried numerous 
means for letting eclipse know the load library path, including

* passing "-Djava.library.path=" on the VM's command-line using ,
  pointing to the JDK's bin dir, and the JavaFX2.1 install's bin dir
  (where all dlls appear to live)
* setting the LD_LIBRARY_PATH environment var to both of the above dirs
* adding both of the above dirs to PATH
* cloning all dlls to the directory containing the
  javafx.application.Application.class file

to no avail, I seem to be shooting in the dark (i.e. don't know enough what I'm 
doing).

I'd appreciate any advice any of you can provide to help me get unstuck.

Thanks,
