Re: JAVAFX on ANDROID
For PlatformLogger et al you can probably use the compatibility lib we have been using for jfx78+RoboVM: https://github.com/robovm/robovm-jfx78-compat Den lördagen den 12:e oktober 2013 skrev Tomas Brandalik: I think that PlatformLogger initialization in CssHelper was causing problems. I had to write one. Not 100% sure though I will look at it when I'm back in the office. (Or you can comment out css processing in the node.) I was able to run without font then. -Tomas On 10/11/2013 06:22 PM, Tom Schindl wrote: On 11.10.13 18:10, Matthias Hänel wrote: Hi Tomas, today, I took the time to investigate a little more time on this. 1. I build an entirely new openjfx78 build for android 2. starting this gave me several errors that lead me to the conclusion that I need a java6 openjfx 3. based on openjfx78 I ported it back to java6 (adapted gradled scripts, and tons of java source code) 4. Now it's almost running on an 18th android. All libraries are firing up until the CssStyleHelper is called with a static call to createStyleHelper. That looks like the font stuff is not in jfx78. That's why new Font returns with null and therefore On OS-X font stuff is definately there in jfx78, but the low-level font stuff is loaded using reflection (at least this was the cause on robovm)!

If you honestly encourage community to make a such big effort as developing, adjusting and maintaining JVMs on the two leading mobile platforms, you don't have any illusions that Oracle VM on android will be released in the next 2 years. :/ Otherwise, if such community's VM will come in blood, sweat and tears and be usable and Oracle announce own VM, then all this community's effort be for nothing and pointless.

Re: JAVAFX on ANDROID
Perhaps having more than one JVM on iOS/Android implementation is good for JavaFX as a whole?

Open source done in the spare time by people with a full time job usually never grows much bigger than a nice but not too complex library; layout engines, testing frameworks, a web framework, that kind of stuff. Because as a project grows in size and complexity, so do the (number of) issues and the time required to provide support. That usually is the point where either a company is started (projects like Maven and Gradle) or the project gets corporate funding usually by that a corporation allows some developers to spent worktime on it (Apache, Eclipse, and Java JavaFX is getting there). A full fledged port of a JVM to a mobile platform cannot be carried in spare time, it can be showcased (which it has), but to make it production worthy one or more corporations needs to put their weight behind it. My 2 cents, Tom
