Hi All,
New member to this group. I am encountering a little trouble when I
try to build OpenJFX. I am following the instructions here: (using
Cygwin on Win 7):
https://wiki.openjdk.java.net/display/OpenJFX/Building+OpenJFX
When I run gradle after cloning the OpenJFX repository, I get a "build
failed with exception" . I include the output from the entire run just
in case it's significant:
$ gradle

I should add that even though the tutorial doesn't mention to do it, I
cd-ed into the folder named rt, which was created by Mercurial when I
cloned OpenJFX, I called gradle from there. Calling it from the
directory containing rt resulted in nothing happening , which makes
sense afaik.
the variable WINSDK is not one I am familiar with- it's not any
environment or system variable on my machine and the tutorial doesn't
say anything about it. I hesitate to start arbitrarily hacking build
files based on error messages. It seems as though it ought to just work
and perhaps this is a bug I should report or is it something else ?
Thank you!
