How to Download the Latest Compiler Build Instead of Building It

From Planet JFX

The OpenJFX compiler is a pure Java application that is continually built using open source tools. This page describes how to download the latest compiler build instead of building it on your system.

[edit] System Requirements

• JRE 6.

[edit] Download and Install the Latest OpenJFX Compiler Build

• Download the latest OpenJFX Compiler build. This currently is in a file named archive.zip.

• Expand this archive.zip file into a directory on your system.

• Set the PATH environment variable to include the archive/openjfx-compiler/dist/bin subdirectory of the directory into which you expanded the archive.zip file.

• Unix/Linux/Cygwin/MacOSX users currently need to run the following command in the archive/openjfx-compiler/dist/bin directory:

chmod ugo+x javafxc javafx

Note: The OpenJFX Compiler Project team is soon going to create an easier download and installation process, which will also take up less space on your system.
