Correct. will need to upgrade to gradle 6 to support building with JDK
13. See JDK-8232063 [1] and JDK-8232064 [2]. The gradle team indicates
that they plan to ship gradle 6 on November 1 [3].
By way of information, the current toolchain versions used by the JavaFX
build are recorded in build.properties [4].

Sorry, that was my mistake when I updated that page for Skara. We usually
list JDK N and N-1 as compatible for JFX N and I missed that Gradle is not
there yet for 13.
Use JDK 12 for now.

In trying to provide a fix for JDK-8232524 I have begun to setup a build
for JavaFX.
According to [1] using JDK-13 is recommended. However, gradle is not yet
ready to run on JDK-13 ([2]):
[rli@rlinux jfx]$ ./gradlew clean
FAILURE: Build failed with an exception.
* Where:
Build file '/home/rli/PWEs/jfx/buildSrc/build.gradle'
* What went wrong:
Could not compile build file '/home/rli/PWEs/jfx/buildSrc/build.gradle'.
startup failed:
General error during semantic analysis: Unsupported class file major
version 57
I'll now continue on JDK-12 (just like I have to in my day job) but is
there any general advice on how to proceed with JDK-13?
Best regards,
Robert
