Re: Heads up... changing the rt/build/*sdk/ directory
We are not currently using the gradle plugins for any of the IDE's. https://wiki.openjdk.java.net/display/OpenJFX/Using+an+IDE Steve On 2014-02-14 7:26 PM, Scott Palmer wrote: Are you guys using the NetBeans Gradle plugin?

Re: Heads up... changing the rt/build/*sdk/ directory
Hi, hm, is there now a way to crossbuild the apps like Ensemble8? Seems to me that the apps are now always build against the default sdk. I ask this, because for the dalvik port, we currently use a stripped down version of the sdk, which only contains the classes, we got working. - Stefan David Hill wrote: As part of this Jira https://javafx-jira.kenai.com/browse/RT-35809, we are trying to make working in rt/apps easier.
