On the other hand, the build instructions talk about generating modules, and module support is only available in Java 9 and later. So if that is accurate, you should be able to build OpenJFX 9 for OpenJDK 8. You may be able to repackage that into JARs and native libraries that you can include in your application.įor OpenJFX 9 and later, the build instructions are here:Īpparently, for N >= 9, OpenJFX version N is supposed to be supported for OpenJDK N and OpenJDK N - 1. The result of the build is (apparently) a ZIP file that is designed to be 'overlayed' onto a JRE installation.

So if you want to build a stand-alone OpenJFX 8 for use with OpenJDK 8, then you should try the following build instructions on the OpenJFX wiki: (The following is purely based on reading the OpenJFX build instructions. I think you will need to build your own copy of OpenJFX from source, and ( touch wood) 'package it' with your application 1. Or any workaround (without installing anything) which works with OpenJDK 8? There are org.openjfx artifacts for OpenJFX 11 onwards, but they won't work with Java 8. Is there any javafx/OpenJFX dependency which can be used directly in the pom file so that it works with OpenJDK 8?ĪFAIK, no.
