Felix,

This is an open source Project's mailing list, specifically for technical discussions of that Project's development. It's not an 'open' forum suitable for discussion of other issues.

Removing participants that continue to abuse the privilege of being on an open source project's mailing list is a useful tool to deal with individuals which contribute negatively to a project, if they don't seem to be able to change their act.

cheers,

Read that again. Thank you for giving me the clear answer you promised!

And thanks for the warning in case I accidentally start "spamming". But
surely you wouldn't remove anyone from an "open" forum would you?

Blessings,

Felix

Felix,

if you'd like to ask questions about Oracle's products, please do so
at https://community.oracle.com/welcome .

This mailing list is the not the right forum for discussions of
Oracle's products. This mailing list is for OpenJFX development,
specifically.

On a side note, spamming this list with off-topic posts could result
in removal from it without further warning.

Let me put it another way */so as there can be no possible room for any
further confusion (hopefully)/*.

*/COULD YOU PLEASE DETAIL EXACTLY WHERE JAVAFX IS USED IN EITHER
PRODUCTS USED INTERNALLY BY ORACLE OR IN COMMERCIAL PRODUCTS WHICH
ORACLE MARKETS?/*

Now, please give me the "clear answer" that I "am entitled to" (Your
words, not mine).

(Given that we now know that usage of JavaFX within JMX is about to be
abandoned, and there may be a tiny fraction of JMC that is still gasping
for air written using JavaFX, but knowing how */incredibly
enthusiastically Oracle is advancing JavaFX/*, I *know* there must be
hundreds more examples and I am sure we would all love to hear about
them).  That would give us all a lot more faith in JavaFX. I am sure you
want that don't you?

See - no mention of age of participants, telephony equipment or career
plans! Just JMX and a lot about OpenJFX!

Am I *still* in the wrong forum?

All my blessings,

Felix

P.S. What is this "bitterness" that you speak of?

   Felix, I believe that you are entitled to a clear answer to your
   question:

   Yes, I have considered a career in politics.

   That being said, I would kindly suggest that you stop trying to
   divert[0] technical discussions in this community with off-topic
   posts, such as your contributions to this thread so far, where you
   attempted to discuss :

    * the age of discussion participants,
    * their telephony equipment and
    * career plans,

   none of which have anything to do with JMX or OpenJFX.

   Instead, you should consider unsubscribing from this mailing list
   for a week or two, in order to get clarity in what capacity, if any,
   you'd like to positively contribute to ongoing OpenJFX development.

   As it stands, your current mode of participation on this mailing
   list is a net loss for this community, and apparently, for yourself
   as well, judging by what seems to be an increasing amount of
   bitterness in your posts.

   You can change that.

   All the best,
   Dalibor Topic

       Dalibor, please forgive me for assuming that Oracle had access
       to an English language parser. I could translate my original
       question into Klingon and resubmit if that would help.

       And thanks so much for pointing out to me that this forum is
       devoted to "ongoing OpenJFX development".  Clearly I was under
       the misapprehension that it was about unicorns, angels and aliens.

       However, the word "ongoing" probably could do with some
       clarification.

       Oh, and I don't actually *need* to find a forum to discuss
       telephony equipment used by other organisations because such
       information is transparent and clearly indicates belief and
       commitment to their own technologies.

       Just out of interest, have you ever considered a career in
politics?

       And thanks for finally answering my question (even if it was
       accidental)...

           Felix, unfortunately your original question was not
parse-able.

           Before you go on prolonging this thread with more of that,
           please consider that this mailing list is for discussion of
           ongoing OpenJFX development.

           If instead you would prefer to discuss something else,
           please do try to find a more suitable venue for discussion
           of such interests. While I can't help you find an adequate
           forum to discuss telephony equipment used by employees of
           other organizations, I hope that you will be able to find a
           better place to do so in the future.

           Cheers,

                       As some of you may be aware, JavaFX has shipped
                       a JMX plugin as a
                       separate jar file along with the JDK (not part
                       of the JRE) in
                       <JDK>/lib/javafx-mx.jar. Development on this
                       plugin stopped prior to JDK
                       8 being shipped, although we continued to ship
                       javafx-mx.jar in JDK 8.

                       Are there any developers that still use this? We
                       haven't seen any bug
                       reports or had questions on it for quite a
                       while. I note that this jar
                       file has been gone from JDK 9 ea since build 111
                       and we are trying to
                       determine how best to address this in JDK 9.

                       Our options are:

                       1) Remove it entirely and drop this tooling
support

                       2) Continue to ship it as a legacy jar file,
                       meaning that any use would
                       require command line qualified exports to be
                       added since it uses
                       internal packages

                       3) Turn it into a proper JDK-only module,
                       javafx.jmx; it would not be
                       one of the default modules, so it would need to
                       be added with -addmods.

                       Obviously #1 would be the least amount of work,
                       and given that it isn't
                       being actively maintained, might be a viable
                       solution. If we do need to
                       keep it, then #2 might be less effort than #3,
                       while still preserving
                       the ability for developers to use it. This is
                       only used for tooling, so
                       requiring qualified exports, as is done for
                       Robot and
                       PerformanceTracker, is not a problem.

                       Separately, if we don't remove it for JDK 9, we
                       probably will deprecate
                       it with the intention to remove it in a future
                       release.
