Hi Alexander,
I attached the patch to the bug:
https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8088147
If I build it and run the manual test in "legacy" mode, meaning run
everything with 9+109 and the legacy jfxrt.jar file, then it runs and
the cursor now changes. So this looks like a good starting point for a fix.
I tried building and running this in Jigsaw mode (building with
jdk-9+109, but running the tests with a more recent JDK that includes
modularization support), and noticed two problems right away that must
be addressed:
1. The unit tests for SWT are missing some of the jigsaw test tasks so
the build fails right away with an exception from gradle:
> Task with name 'jigsawTestsLinux' not found in project ':swt'.
Wiring up SWT-based tests to our unit test harness will take a bit more
work than what you have provided (not even counting the Mac issue, which
could be handled by excluding the test on Mac). In the short term,
relying on manual tests for this fix might be best.
2. You have introduced a dependency on a new internal package,
com.sun.javafx.tk. If this is required in order to implement the fix,
then you will need to add this package to the list of packages exports
to javafx.swt in PlatformImpl; otherwise the following exception is
thrown at runtime:
Exception in thread "JavaFX Application Thread"
java.lang.IllegalAccessError: class javafx.embed.swt.SWTCursors (in
module javafx.swt) cannot access class com.sun.javafx.tk.Toolkit (in
module javafx.graphics) because module javafx.graphics does not export
com.sun.javafx.tk to module javafx.swt
I won't have time to sponsor this change until the second half of July,
but if others have time, the review can proceed and I'll pick it back up
then if it is in good enough shape to run.

Hi Alexander,
It looks like your patch was stripped out by the mailing list server.
Can you please send me the patch offline, as a zip file (so line
endings are preserved across different systems), and I will unzip it
and attach it to the bug report.

Hi,
I have worked on a first contribution related to JDK-8088147.
Attached please find a patch (created in extended Git format) that
comprises the related changes. I have augmented the implementation of
javafx.embed.swt.SWTCursors to handle the image cursor case. I
further adjusted javafx.scene.Scene to update the cursor frame (in
addition to the cursor) within synchronizeSceneProperties, so the
cursor is not cleared in the first pulse succeeding the cursor
property change.
I have added an automated JUnit test (SWTCursorsTest) to the swt
module, as well as a manual test (SWTImageCursorTest) to the
systemTests module, with which the proper behavior can be verified.
As no tests for SWT existed so far, I updated the build.gradle and
gradle.properties files to support an SWT_TEST option, which allows
to handle them similar to Swing tests. I also added the respective
SWT dependency to the systemTests module. Please note that the JUnit
test can currently not be executed using Gradle on the Mac (where the
manual test currently is the single option; the automated tests are
disabled), because there SWT-based tests require the
-XstartOnFirstThread option that is currently not supported by the
Gradle test runner (see https://issues.gradle.org/browse/GRADLE-3290
for details). We would have to use an ant task as a workaround.
Regards,
Alexander
