Note that the next version of Eclipse 4.6 Mars (milestone versions
already available) will only work with Java 8. Eclipse is also a

I'm dismayed that this has been going on for a year now (several other
tickets plead for Java 8 on 14.04). It seriously makes me question
whether Ubuntu is the right server distro to be running. I thought
Canonical was going to support 14.04 LTS for 5 years. Support shouldn't

I've had good results with this PPA:

New JDK updates are made available relatively quickly even if it's
lagging a bit ATM. The JDK 8 update 66 entered Wily on Sept 13th so it
shouldn't be too long before it reaches the PPA.

Java is very widely used by corporates and businesses all over the
world.
Taking into consideration that oracle java 8 is already out-of-life, the
lack of proper java support in ubuntu LTS is rather shocking and will
turn off many potential adopters who will think ubuntu is just a toy
and instead

AFAIK, JavaFX is not a standard yet. It is bundled along with Oracle
JRE, but not a requirement for Java 8 SE. Many other Java 8 SE JREs
don't bundle JavaFX. So, if you want to target a standard platform,
JavaFX is *not* an obvious choice.

Java is switching from Swing/SWT to JavaFX, which is included in

Anyone could file a bug to update the package, without rdepends the
