Hi Anthony Thanks a lot for your answer.
I also compiled OpenJDK 1.8 source as part of this exercise independently . I did the following to compile OpenJDK 1.8 1. Download OpenJDK 1.8 source and its dependent source o OpenJDK 1.8 root-source from http://hg.openjdk.java.net/jdk8/jdk8 --> Done o OpenJDK 1.8 Lang tools Source from http://hg.openjdk.java.net/jdk8/tl/langtools --> Done o Hotspot 1.8 Source from http://hg.openjdk.java.net/jdk8/jdk8/hotspot/rev/e437668ced9d --> Done o Corba 1.8 Source from http://hg.openjdk.java.net/jdk8/jdk8/corba --> Done o Jaxp 1.8 Source from http://hg.openjdk.java.net/jdk8/jdk8/jaxp --> Done o Jaxws 1.8 source from http://hg.openjdk.java.net/jdk8/jdk8/jaxws --> Done o JDK 1.8 source from http://hg.openjdk.java.net/jdk8/jdk8/jdk --> Done 2. JDK 1.8 Build environment is created after installing following on top of Step-2 ==> Build environment for JKD 1.8 compilation is not ready yet as we are not able to find Hotspot the source o GnuWin32 is installed 3. Building JDK o Execute the configure for all the all the add-on packages ( such as Corba ,Hotspot … ) • ./configure --with-override-langtools=../langtools/langtools-4300c2f5fb1b --with-override-hotspot=../hotspot/hotspot-e437668ced9d --with-override-corba=../corba/corba-d411c60a8c2f --with-override-jaxp=../jaxp/jaxp-a22fe9bd01e6 --with-override-jaxws=../jaxws/jaxws-42211ab0ab1c --with-override-jdk=../jdk/jdk-f1d8d15bfcb5 > err.txt 2>&1 o Execute build --> This compilation fails with the following error • Make clean all ## Starting jdk make[2]: *** No rule to make target `/cygdrive/c/dheva/JavaFX/software/OpenJDK/jdk8-ceefd94ef326/build/windows-x86_64-normal-server-release/corba/dist/lib/classes.jar', needed by `/cygdrive/c/dheva/JavaFX/software/OpenJDK/jdk8-ceefd94ef326/build/windows-x86_64-normal-server-release/jdk/classes/_the.CORBA.classes.imported'. Stop. make[1]: *** [import-only] Error 2 make: *** [jdk-only] Error 2 At this point, I have few questions • I am not able to compile OpenJDK 1.8 without the “The optional Packages” [i.e. Jaxws,Jaxp,Corba,Langtools and JDK ]. • In the attempt of compilation of these packages , Class not found error is thrown pointing the respective source folders Is there any place where I can get more stable OpenJDK 1.8 (with JavaFX 1.8 ) ??

Try either cloning a fresh copy of the FX repo (it's best to always clone both FX and JDK at the same time, actually), or building with an older JDK build. -- best regards, Anthony On 08/20/2013 06:26 PM, K, Dhevendran (MSDU) wrote: > Hi > > I am facing some issue while building OpenJFX 1.8.
