Yes, the IDE configs are for developer convenience only. You can feel
free to ignore them.
If someone wants to cleanup the Eclipse IDE files, that would be fine, too.

If you're still catching up, I would like to verify that I should
ignore project-level errors from the IDE. For example, Eclipse
complains about the graphics project:
Project 'graphics' is missing required source folder:
'build/resources/jsl-decora'
Project 'graphics' is missing required source folder:
'build/resources/jsl-prism'
and about the buildSource project:
Project 'buildSrc' is missing required library:
'...\rt\build\libs\ant-1.8.2.jar'
Project 'buildSrc' is missing required library:
'...\rt\build\libs\antlr-3.1.3.jar'
Project 'buildSrc' is missing required library:
'...\rt\build\libs\antlr-runtime-3.1.3.jar'
Project 'buildSrc' is missing required library:
'...\rt\build\libs\stringtemplate-3.2.jar'
Project 'buildSrc' is missing required source folder: 'src/main/java'
Project 'buildSrc' is missing required source folder: 'src/test/java'
As long as the gradle tasks complete successfully I can ignore all that?

I'm still a little behind on my email, but here are some quick
answers.
#1 - The NetBeans instructions are still mostly correct except
that with FX 9 or later you can't compile or run code from within
the IDE any more (and there isn't yet a release of NetBeans 9).
Not sure about the other IDEs, but I suspect they are somewhat out
of date.
#2. You should be able to build just the FX bits (outside your
IDE) using:
gradle sdk
-or-
gradle javadoc
depending on what you want to do (or you can build both targets).
If you have a build of JDK 9 or later with FX bits in it, then you
can use the build/run.args script to run with the just-built FX
bits without rebuilding the JDK.
java @build/run.args ...
#3. I don't know since I don't use Eclipse; maybe someone on the
list who uses Eclipse can answer. It might have to do with the
level of JDK 9 support in Eclipse
#4 - previously answered

Hello,
I have OpenJFX and OpenJDK built. I have also set up
TortoiseHg and am
working with Eclipse. I have several questions:
1. Are the instructions at
https://wiki.openjdk.java.net/display/OpenJFX/Using+an+IDE
<https://wiki.openjdk.java.net/display/OpenJFX/Using+an+IDE>
still valid from
JDK 8? There are old TODOs there. If not, can I get a quick
update?
2. After importing the projects to Eclipse and working on the
source, what
steps need to be taken when the changes are to:
a. only the docs?
b. Java code?
c. Prism code?
Do I need to rebuild the JDK with JavaFX, rebuild only JavaFX,
only compile
etc? What tests do I need to run (e.g., I doubt I need to run
regression
tests when changing JavaDocs)?
3. Eclipse uses EJC (which I never had trouble with). Can this
cause
trouble?
4. After creating a local changeset and assuming there is
already a JIRA
issue for it and the fix approach was discussed, can I just
push it and it
will enter a review queue? Do I need to ask someone
specifically for a
review on the changeset (
https://wiki.openjdk.java.net/display/OpenJFX/Code+Ownership
<https://wiki.openjdk.java.net/display/OpenJFX/Code+Ownership>
is old...)?
Thanks,
Nir
