I know that version 24.x is out, but I cannot get it building. Throws error like Cannot invoke method trim() on null object.

If anyone succeeds building it locally, please tell.

This -nowebkit variant is here since disabling webkit support seems to work around build failure, see ↗ this comment.

@matthewq337, I see you have filed an orphan request because

Flagged out-of-date (2025-03-29)

Have you actually got a newer version to build? If so, then please share the information here.

If not, please see this pinned comment:

Would you mind to upgrade this pkg to 24?

First. someone would need to

I won't do that.

If you can do that, please do so!, otherwise we have to wait until some solution is out.

I got this to compile, but it was super annoying. Here's what I did:

OpenJFX now has a hard dependency on OpenJDK>=22, which is a problem because Arch's Gradle has a hard dependency on OpenJDK<=21. As it happens, Gradle can actually support OpenJDK<=23. So I compiled my own jdk23-openjdk package, and I then recompiled Gradle with an updated <=23 dependency. With that, I was able to compile this package in a chroot.

One additional wrinkle: there is a longstanding bug with the installation directory; this needs to install to /usr/lib/jvm/java-${_jfxver}-openjfx, NOT to ...-openjdk. Otherwise you will get file conflicts; see also FS#64121.

Note that webkit is still impossible, because there's a dependency on something called webkitdirs, which is provided by WebKit proper but, for whatever reason, not provided in WebKitGTK, and I can't figure out how to fix that.

I will post the PKGBUILD that worked for me in another comment, because it's close to the 5K character limit.

yes it works !

dreieck commented on 2024-11-11 21:04 (UTC)

@solonovamax,

The build currently fails due to unverified dependencies

I have no idea about this java dependency stuff.

If you (or someone else) can tell me how to fix it, please do so.

For me the build works, and I do not have the knowledge to track this down. So I did nothing to the PKGBUILD for now.

Regards!

solonovamax commented on 2024-09-25 17:23 (UTC) (edited on 2024-09-25 17:33 (UTC) by solonovamax)

Also, the build fails due to not using the project's gradlew binary and instead using the system gradle.

As-per the buildscript output:

*****************************************************************
Unsupported gradle version 8.10.1 in use.
Only version 8.5 is supported. Use this version at your own risk
*****************************************************************

nvm, this only happened due to me editing the pkgbuild to add --write-verification-metadata sha256 to fix the previous issue

solonovamax commented on 2024-09-25 17:14 (UTC)

The build currently fails due to unverified dependencies:

Using /usr/bin/gradle
Starting a Gradle Daemon (subsequent builds will be faster)

FAILURE: Build failed with an exception.
