Best Practices for Moving to Openjdk-10-18 TECHNOLOGY WHITE PAPER Best Practices for Moving to OpenJDK Best Practices for Moving to OpenJDK Since Java SE 7, the OpenJDK has been the reference implementation (RI) of the Java SE standard, as dened by the relevant Java Specication Request (JSR). A project was also created for OpenJDK 6 to allow an open-source implementation of Java SE 6 to be built. Azul Systems is the project lead for OpenJDK 6. OpenJDK is licensed under the GNU Public License (GPL) version 2 with classpath exception (CPE). The CPE eliminates the viral nature of the GPL from affecting applications running on the OpenJDK. Changes to JDK Binary Distribution and Updates In September 2017, Oracle announced a series of changes to the way the JDK would be developed, This whitepaper explains what Zulu is and how to migrate distributed and updated. These changes can be applications from the Oracle JDK to the Zulu builds of summarized as follows: OpenJDK. • The release of the JDK has changed to a time-based model with two releases every year, in March and September. • Oracle has started to produce a second binary distribution of the JDK, built using only the OpenJDK Introduction source code. This is released under the GPLv2 with How the Java Development Kit (JDK) is delivered is classpath exception license, which is less restrictive changing, and these changes will impact many Java than the Oracle Binary Code License for Java SE users. From JDK 11 (to be released in September 2018) used for the Oracle JDK binary. it will no longer be possible to use the Oracle JDK in • From JDK 11, there are no functional differences production without a commercial support agreement. between the Oracle JDK binary and one built purely To provide an alternative Java runtime with economically from OpenJDK source. To achieve this, Oracle has priced support and continued access to bug xes and contributed some previously closed-source features to security patches, Azul Systems has created the Zulu the OpenJDK (e.g., Mission Control and Flight OpenJDK distribution. This whitepaper explains what Zulu Recorder). Oracle has also removed some features is and how to migrate applications from the Oracle JDK to from the Oracle JDK binary such as Java Web Start the Zulu builds of OpenJDK. We have also appended a and JavaFX. series of links from the Oracle and Azul Systems websites to help you understand your Java support • From JDK 11 the Oracle JDK will no longer be free for alternatives. use in production. It can be used for development and testing but requires a commercial support The OpenJDK agreement for use in production. In 2006 Sun Microsystems, the then custodian of Java, • OpenJDK binaries will only be updated for six months announced that it was open-sourcing its implementation until the next JDK is released. Long-term support from of the JDK. To do this, it created the OpenJDK project, Oracle will only be available for the Oracle JDK binary hosted at http://openjdk.java.net under the commercial support agreement. • Public updates for JDK 8 end in January 2019. After Initially, just the JVM source code was released, but this that, users will still be able to use JDK 8 in the same was followed early in 2007 by that of the core libraries. way they have previously, but there will be no more Some parts remained closed-source until April 2009 with freely available security patches or bug xes provided build 53 of OpenJDK 7, when a complete JDK could be by Oracle. built using only open-source code.

Since January 2018, (and the release of JDK 8 update 161) all OpenJDK-based distributions (Zulu and Oracle) Oracle JDK switched to using an “unlimited” strength cryptographic policy. Prior to this release, the default was “strong” (128 bit), and it was necessary to use additional Open JDK packages to upgrade this to unlimited. For the Oracle JDK, there was the Java Cryptographic Extensions (JCE) package, and for Zulu, there was the Cryptographic Extension Kit (CEK). Java SE Zulu and OpenJDK have generally followed the same cryptographic changes roadmap that Oracle has, which can be found here: https://www.java.com/en/jre-jdk-cryptoroadmap.html 3 Best Practices for Moving to OpenJDK Class Libraries There are several choices: JavaFX: This is included in the Oracle JDK but not the 1: Continue to use the existing runtime, such as JDK 8, Zulu JDK.

  • Building Openjfx
    Building OpenJFX Building a UI toolkit for many different platforms is a complex and challenging endeavor. It requires platform specific tools such as C compilers as well as portable tools like Gradle and the JDK. Which tools must be installed differs from platform to platform. While the OpenJFX build system was designed to remove as many build hurdles as possible, it is necessary to build native code and have the requisite compilers and toolchains installed. On Mac and Linux this is fairly easy, but setting up Windows is more difficult. If you are looking for instructions to build FX for JDK 8uNNN, they have been archived here. Before you start Platform Prerequisites Windows Missing paths issue Mac Linux Ubuntu 18.04 Ubuntu 20.04 Oracle Enterprise Linux 7 and Fedora 21 CentOS 8 Common Prerequisites OpenJDK Git Gradle Ant Environment Variables Getting the Sources Using Gradle on The Command Line Build and Test Platform Builds NOTE: cross-build support is currently untested in the mainline jfx-dev/rt repo Customizing the Build Testing Running system tests with Robot Testing with JDK 9 or JDK 10 Integration with OpenJDK Understanding a JDK Modular world in our developer build Adding new packages in a modular world First Step - development Second Step - cleanup Before you start Do you really want to build OpenJFX? We would like you to, but the latest stable build is already available on the JavaFX website, and JavaFX 8 is bundled by default in Oracle JDK 8 (9 and 10 also included JavaFX, but were superseded by 11, which does not).

For this reason, we suggest you do not update Java 8 to a newer version for work purposes. If you want a newer version of Java 8, install OpenJDK 8 and IcedTea. Also, do not install Java 8 on new computers (clients), but install OpenJDK 8 with IcedTea support. 2 OpenJDK distribution OpenJDK 1.8. build for Windows and Linux is available at the link https://github.com/ojdkbuild/ojdkbuild.
