Re: Build issues on Ubuntu 16.04, 17.10 and 18.04-daily inside Docker

[Kevin Rushforth]

We ought to get a fix for JDK-8189689 in sooner rather than later to 
allow builds to continue to work on newer versions of gcc. Maybe right 
after the JDK 10 RDP1 fork would be a good time.


As for the other error (the one from ant), you need 'ant' in your path 
in order to build the apps. ant 1.8.2 is what we use (we had some 
problems with 1.9 based versions, but I don't recall specifically if 
that was something in the apps build that was failing).


It's clear from the various build problems that folks are having, that 
the build instructions on the Wiki needs updating. I can take a stab at 
that after the JDK 10 RDP1 deadline has passed. If anyone wants to share 
their build problems, I can see about incorporating that into the Wiki.

Hi,

My 2 cents: I reported a JavaFX build problem with GCC 6:
https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8189689

It gives a workaround for the wait() bug:

Hi,
I'm experiencing the following issues when building OpenJFX following
https://wiki.openjdk.java.net/display/OpenJFX/Building+OpenJFX inside
Ubuntu Docker images `ubuntu:[version]`  which are official and as empty
as possible. Afaik the build instructions or the supported list of OS is
quite old (only Ubuntu LTS version 14.04 and 16.04 are still supported
and up-to-date 17.10 and 18.04-daily are left out of the picture). My
motivation here is to improve the build process of OpenJFX, but not only
me alone. You might have you own CI, but in case you agree that the
following are real issues, I can only recommend GitLab CI (your own
instance or the one at gitlab.com) which allows to test whether build
instructions are working on any docker image you can image and can be
used parallel to existing infrastructure. I used it now to allow you to
reproduce the issues as easily as possible:

For `ubuntu:14.04` and `ubuntu:16.04` I get:

[ant:taskdef] Could not load definitions from resource
com/sun/javafx/tools/ant/antlib.xml. It could not be found.
:apps:appsJarLinux FAILED

FAILURE: Build failed with an exception.

* Where:
Build file '/builds/krichter/openjfx-8u-dev-rt/build.gradle' line: 3241

* What went wrong:
Execution failed for task ':apps:appsJarLinux'.
