I've been forging ahead in my JavaFX work trying to get things figured out with OpenJDK 11 and OpenJFX. It's an exciting challenge.
I've read the other two threads regarding the Maven snapshot artifacts and there are probably more questions than answers at this point. Since Johan mentioned the OpenJDK workshop I wanted to ask about the intended tooling around modules, specifically since OpenJFX just got thrust into that space starting with OpenJDK 11. Maven only handles JARs as far as I can tell. Support for proper modules, JMODs, is limited at this point. I'm not sure if Maven would know how to use a JMOD if it were put in a repository. I haven't tried. Even if we manage to get the current artifacts working we still have to be able to get through jlink and javapackager to create a deployable application. My hope for the workshop is that some guidance will come from those who understand how java modules are intended to work so we can apply that guidance to OpenJFX. It would apply to all those who have to make platform specific modules. - Mark
