Hi,
just out of curiousity I wanted to build OpenJFX, but although I followed the
instructions at
https://wiki.openjdk.java.net/display/OpenJFX/Building+OpenJFX
I can’t get it to work.
gradle 1.8 fails when building :fxpackage:compileLauncher as follows:
:fxpackager:compileLauncher
clang: warning: no such sysroot directory:
'/Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/Platforms/MacOSX.platform/Developer/SDKs/MacOSX10.7.sdk'
/Users/phi/Documents/workspace/OpenJFX8-rt/modules/fxpackager/src/main/native/launcher/mac/main.m:26:9:
fatal error: 'Cocoa/Cocoa.h' file not found
#import <Cocoa/Cocoa.h>
^
1 error generated.
:fxpackager:compileLauncher FAILED
I do not have a 10.7 SDK on my 10.9 Mac, but I do have a 10.8 and 10.9:
$ ls
/Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/Platforms/MacOSX.platform/Developer/SDKs/
MacOSX10.8.sdk MacOSX10.9.sdk
According to „the internet™“ I would have to find an old version of Xcode
(apparently 4.3.3) because that’s the only way to find an old SDK.
As I’m sure that you guys have valid reasons to stick to 10.7 I think it would
not hurt to mention this on the wiki page mentioned above stating that one
needs XCode not newer than 4.3.3 and that old XCode versions can be downloaded
on the Apple Developer website.
I would add it myself but as I’m not a contributor I don’t have the required
permissions, so all I can do is to ask here for inclusion of that.
Thanks! May that be the only obstacle in building JFX8.
