Re: How to attach files to Jira?
This was turned off long time ago to avoid spam and upload of viruses.

Moving on (forked from Re: JavaOne roundup?)
The lack of information on iOS/Android is a major bummer, but this also highlights a deeper problem here. We have a situation where Oracle won't talk to this community because the topic is important, it's too big a game changer for them to comment on. It's tied in with share prices, and market strategies. So won't that be the case for anything *important* going forward? We community members are outsiders and very lowly ranked, well below real customers and even below random punters from the media. There's not even a way for us to rank bugs and get them attention (even if we provide fixes!). What kind of community can this ever be if anything important can't be discussed here before it's locked in, because it risks Oracle giving up a commercial edge? Is this then a community only for discussing our favourite method names for the API and pointing out that an enum constant is missing? I can't see any way that this forum provides any significant contributions back to the platform - the occasional bug fix at best. JIRA is fine for discussing bugs, method names and little things like that. Any of the real community initiatives are run completely separate to this forum because Oracle doesn't want anything to do with them, and all the significant platform work takes place behind Oracle's closed doors and we only hear about it after it's a done deal. From where I'm standing, the Oracle community concept is fundamentally flawed, and the root cause is that Oracle just don't get how to interact with a community. You want to use us but you're not very good at it, you're not trying to improve (you don't think there's a problem) and ultimately Oracle's culture won't let you do it properly anyway. The current approach is a little like a car salesman trying to be your Facebook friend. All the initiatives I got involved with through this forum have gone nowhere - deployment (auto updating), the early Maven deployment work (which Richard asked for), the tower defender game (which Richard asked for), the jfx browser (which Richard asked for), even stuff as simple as JIRA dashboards (which Richard again asked for). All these hit points where they needed Oracle to do their part of it and then just stalled and then died. This community could have fostered a lot of tools and efforts, and really propelled JFX into the bigger dev community, but instead, for me, it has been a constant source of stress and dissatisfaction, a hinderance and a hurdle. All pain, no gain. The only initiatives I actually made work were the JavaFX Maven plugin and the RoboVM Maven plugin. With both of these I made a conscious decision to not involve this forum or Oracle. I decided to cludge around platform shortcomings, rather than work with Oracle to fix it (5 minute fixes would have saved me days of work). That was the only way I could make these initiatives succeed since this forum is a hinderance to contributing. It gives a false sense that Oracle is listening and actively supporting the community. To anyone out there wanting to do something in JFX tool space, I'd say start by leaving this forum and working out what you can do without any access to the Oracle guys, even if you make your own code contributions to the platform. Assume you're an outsider - the cavalry is not coming, you're on your own. Given all that I'm walking away from this forum. I was waiting to hear about the iOS/Android stuff first, but really even if they did announce anything, it would be a long shot at best (untested, low resources, lack of solid direction and most likely tied in with some Oracle ADF garbage or similar). The uncertainty created by Oracle's mixed messages also killed all momentum on the community RoboVM work. Meanwhile web based stuff is getting stronger, cleaner and better tool support at an exponential rate, including in the mobile space. If JavaFX one day actually provides a usable platform for non-Oracle entrenched customers, and the developer world notices, I'll certainly consider it. I reckon I'll hear about that through the usual tech media channels first, rather than through here though. As Oracle themselves pointed out at the 2012 JavaOne session the smart money is on web based stuff (check out backbone.js and marionette.js for a desktop-like coding experience, not bad and will get better faster than JFX improves). On that note, the JavaFX Maven plugin is about to go into decay mode. It needs to be updated to work on Maven 3.1 (some libraries have changed from 3.0) and there are a number of bugs and feature requests building up that I've been ignoring. I have no incentive to do any of this so it will unfortunately just rot. If anyone wants to pick it up, let me know (you need a few free hours a week just to maintain it). I'm picking up stumps and moving on. I also have the access rights for the openjfx Maven repo on Sonatype (needed to deploy to Maven central). I imagine Sonatype would grant this access to others if you apply and make a
Re: Moving on (forked from Re: JavaOne roundup?)
I absolutely agree Daniel. I opened a very important bug reporting concerning JFX performance on iPhone which currently prevents using JavaFX (and RoboVM) to build apps for the iPhone (https://javafx-jira.kenai.com/browse/RT-31453) this bug report is open since 3(!) month! How shall the community build things for iOS if a very base feature (bug) is not fixed by Oracles core team??? It’s a very bad sign for engaged developers outside Oracle! So maybe we should say good by to the legacy of SUN and use web technologies like JQuery, ExtJS, … with real community power and without an US company who sees only money and legal issues. Maybe Larry loves to spend millions of dollars to win a boat race and develop experimental „iPads“ rather then spend their time and money to develop a technology with could be the base for ALL products, on Desktop, embedded space, mobile, watches, … Cheers, Tobi Am 30.09.2013 um 10:39 schrieb Daniel Zwolenski zon...@gmail.com: The lack of information on iOS/Android is a major bummer, but this also highlights a deeper problem here.

I'm also optimistic. We've all seen that it's possible from the technical side… I think it takes quite some time to get legal approvement inside Oracle to show something.

Re: JavaOne roundup?
If you add the pieces of information together (announced and then shortly cancelled J1 talks), you perfectly get the right picture. The *problem* certainly is not the technical part. While I disagree that the RPi is just nerd stuff (the embedded market is huge), I agree however that any further delay with JavaFX on Android iOS is really bad. I believe this situation is just as frustrating for the Oracle *developers* like it is for the rest of the JavaFX community.

Performance differs depending on the browser. bck2brwsr is heavily optimized for Chrome. The demos I've seen are running with 40-50FPS on Chrome but much slower in Firefox. Performance on Chrome seemed definitely good enough to create normal applications. Being aware that some things are not yet supported, bck2brwsr is currently a working solution to get JavaFX on any device that has a modern Browser. --Toni Am 30.09.2013 um 10:04 schrieb Felix Bembrick felix.bembr...@gmail.com: How well does a JavaFX application perform in what is a fully interpreted environment like bck2brwsr?

Re: Moving on (forked from Re: JavaOne roundup?)
I urge everyone *not* to walk away from JavaFX, at least not yet. As has been pointed out, there were several sessions scheduled for J1 relating to JavaFX on mobiles and tablets that were only cancelled at the very last minute. I see this as a definite positive. To me that says that they truly believed they would be able to have something for those sessions but for whatever reason were not able to get across the finish line. I would have been far more worried if they had never announced such sessions because then we would know for certain that they do not have any concrete plans in this area. I am optimistic that a *big* announcement is just around the corner. Of course J1 would have been the perfect place for such an announcement but can you imagine the damage to brand Java/JavaFX had they released a half-baked, bug-ridden, slow-as-a-dog implementation of JavaFX on iOS or Android?

Re: Moving on (forked from Re: JavaOne roundup?)
Yes, perhaps Oracle have not yet grasped the degree of importance of actively engaging the community in a project that is supposed to be community-based. I suspect the limited resources of the JavaFX team are working flat-out just to get new versions released and to meet the targets for JFX8 and that engaging the community is suffering as a result. Who knows, maybe some of that hard work is on porting JavaFX to modern platforms???

Re: Moving on to a round house kick (forked from Re: JavaOne roundup?)
Hi, @Felix: you are kidding are you? We cannot take another breath without choking on it. Sure there are many positive things about JavaFX but in the real world I can't be happy over and over again about the same things. A university can just devlop until a certain point, but we have a running bussiness where we need to decide the future of the underlaying technology. This is my very first post to this mailing list. My collegue tobi is an active member of this community. He is head of the java devlopement department in our company and I am the counterpart by managing the backend native codes and the interfacing to JNI/Java for the upper layers. Since Javafx could be a game changer for our company we have had internal workshops for the developers to get a common sense about the furture of development directions. This summer we focused our development on JavaFX for further products. This meant reworking all UI-stuff, cleaning APIs and fixing JNI for java8. Tobi was soo excited to see the new technologies and his presentation to our fellow developers has been more than ethusiastic. It sounded almost like the old dream code-once-run-anywhere comes true. The closer JavaOne got and the more session of interest for us has been canceled, the more we got fed up over here. As a result non of the session that had been a sort of interest for us had been held. Just to summarize our feeling about that, we are taking this really personally. There is investment of money and time on one side and on the other side it is personal investment into a future technology. I would like to give you an overview of the things that happend and how they appear over here. What did we heard over here from JavaOne? 1. JavaFX is still in development 2. Dukepad is released 3. Oracle wong a sailing cup (4. Javafx runs in a browser) I'll start at the bottom: (4. When Javafx runs in a browser, why do I need it? I could use JavaScript and web technologies as well. This is quite a failure of time investment. Sure write-once-run-anywhere applies but all tough real world applications are not buildable since there is no native interfacing and won't be cross platform in the near future.) 3. Larry Ellison spent 200 million dollar to win a sailing cup. I don't want to image what Oracle could have been done to revolutionize the world. I don't speak only about JavaFX, there is a lot to be done with the right power. But doesn't lead to much here. 2. Wow, there is a JavaFX enabled Dukepad. Beeing a soldering nerd myself, hacking firmware and much cool stuff in my spare time it really kicked me in the first place. Then I grounded when I have seen that it was a childish puzzle with lego blocks.

Hi guys, I understand your frustration about the cancelled sessions, and I share it.

Oracle should count itself lucky that Google even used a Java-like language for its platform or they'd stand no chance at all anymore in this space. There are already dozens of frameworks that work with Dalvik that compete in atleast part of the same space as JavaFX -- many of them cross platform.

2. Wow, there is a JavaFX enabled Dukepad. Beeing a soldering nerd myself, hacking firmware and much cool stuff in my spare time it really kicked me in the first place. Then I grounded when I have seen that it was a childish puzzle with lego blocks. What? The longer I think about that, the longer I am getting angry to see a 100 men powered development team to build a demo on a demo board for a hand full nerds. I don't know where you got that impression. Jasper did the design, and there were a couple of people who spent a couple weeks working on software. And that wasn't writing the DukePad software, predominantly, but it was fixing performance issues in Prism that affect all platforms. The value is in embedded development. Before JavaOne we didn't have all the agreements in place to work with Freescale. The Raspberry PI has a nice following, is great for educational purposes and home-brew, so it was a great choice to build a demo on top of (as opposed to, say, a BeagleBoard or BeagleBone which is either more expensive or doesn't have the same size following). Having an actual project to work on also teases out bugs and performance issues, and most of the work leading up to JavaOne was in finding and fixing these issues. These same issues will affect any embedded project, including the RoboVM / iOS / Android work. Well that would be ok, if Oracle said that this is a demo on a prototyping board and the important platforms will follow soon. No word about iOS, Android, Windows8. Do you mean Windows Phone 8? Because Windows 8 is a given. Do you really believe that there are many people to build a Tablet like this?

The only thing that I can image is that Oracle comes up with their own iPad-Killer in the near future (don't wait too long) otherwise this decision make no sense to me. No, none of this. DukePad is not a product. We made that pretty clear, it's an open source hardware/software design for the Raspberry PI community. We will make no money off the designs and Oracle isn't selling anything here. For us it was a vehicle on which we could demonstrate our ability to run well on embedded devices, and find and fix bugs along the way. Oracle isn't going to produce a mobile device. DukePad was not any kind of product announcement. Those kinds of things happen in strategy keynotes, not in technical keynotes. Richard

It is a far better UI toolkit and platform than anything else available on those devices so if Oracle can get it to work well there then we are looking at a potential world beater :-) On 1 Oct 2013, at 2:27, John Hendrikx hj...@xs4all.nl wrote: On 30/09/2013 17:38, Anton Epple wrote: Hi guys, I understand your frustration about the cancelled sessions, and I share it. But when I talk to the engineers and see their posts here, they're clearly interested in the same stuff we'd like to see in JavaFX. I guess nobody was more frustrated that these sessions were cancelled than the engineers who submitted them. If you want to talk about something new and exiting you will have to let some company lawyers approve it. This takes some time. My guess is, that the approval for the talks might not have arrived in time. To be honest, it is likely JavaFX already missed its window to become relevant on Android and iOS. These platforms are not waiting for anyone and are being aggressively pushed into all kinds of new areas (console gaming, entertainment hubs, general productivity, etc). Oracle should count itself lucky that Google even used a Java-like language for its platform or they'd stand no chance at all anymore in this space. There are already dozens of frameworks that work with Dalvik that compete in atleast part of the same space as JavaFX -- many of them cross platform. Just one of these needs to be actively pushed by a big name and gone is your opportunity. These markets donot move at the snails pace that lawyers and courts move. Limiting yourself to the speed of your legal department is a guaranteed way to become irrelevant. My 2 cents --John If I was right, and the reason for the talks being removed are just of temporary nature, then I guess the best strategy now is to keep calm and carry on for a bit. Regards --Toni P.s.: @Matthias: Regarding your thoughts about JavaFX in a browser: - WORA matters - I think it's the whole point that started this discussion. - Using Cordova you can package your app as a native app. So you've got a working solution, which is admittedly not feature complete and not usable for every application, but much better than nothing. - JavaScript is a huge problem as it leads to ugly unmaintainable code. Right now there are tons of projects desperately trying to solve that issue (GWT, typescript, ...). bck2brwsr is one of the solutions. It enables you to write clean Java(FX) code and still run in the browser without the need to install any plugin. So bck2brwsr solves a real world problem. That's why it matters.

Cool, thanks John! I suggest posting your SSCCE on gist and linking to it from the bug report: https://gist.github.com/ -- Pedro Duque Vieira

I'm not an apologist for Oracle, but in their defense, I can't see any commercial company telegraphing their punches by pre-announcing technology. If you want support for those platforms, feel free fork the codebase and write it. I'd be satisified if we could get high-priority bugs and performance issues taken care of and back-ported to 7 on a monthly basis. Anything beyond that is just gravy.

Larry Ellison spent 200 million dollar to win a sailing cup. I don't want to image what Oracle could have been done to revolutionize the world. I don't speak only about JavaFX, there is a lot to be done with the right power. But doesn't lead to much here. 2. Wow, there is a JavaFX enabled Dukepad. Beeing a soldering nerd myself, hacking firmware and much cool stuff in my spare time it really kicked me in the first place. Then I grounded when I have seen that it was a childish puzzle with lego blocks. The longer I think about that, the longer I am getting angry to see a 100 men powered development team to build a demo on a demo board for a hand full nerds. Well that would be ok, if Oracle said that this is a demo on a prototyping board and the important platforms will follow soon. No word about iOS, Android, Windows8. Do you really believe that there are many people to build a Tablet like this? I am really sure non of the major hardware manufacturer will build a tablet on top of this platform soon since Android is also free to us and is much more attractive to the end-user. The only thing that I can image is that Oracle comes up with their own iPad-Killer in the near future (don't wait too long) otherwise this decision make no sense to me. 1. JavaFX is in active development is the only great news for me. As of today it looks like a major development for years that is not released for actual use. For me it is currently just a very big shiny demo. short history summarize: 4 years ago when javafx1 hit's the world, desktop use was okay. JavaFX1 couldn't really convince due to an strange way of design. It is okay to make an mistake and to learn from it, so JavaFX2 was create. The software design is outstanding and the potential is not even comparable from my point
