Hi All,

New member to this group. I am encountering a little trouble   when I 
try to build OpenJFX. I am following the instructions here:  (using 
Cygwin on Win 7):

https://wiki.openjdk.java.net/display/OpenJFX/Building+OpenJFX

When I run gradle after cloning the OpenJFX repository,  I get a "build 
failed with exception" . I include the output from the entire run just 
in case it's significant:



$ gradle

I should add that even though the tutorial doesn't mention to do it, I 
cd-ed into the folder named rt, which was created by Mercurial when I 
cloned OpenJFX,    I called gradle from there. Calling it from the 
directory containing rt resulted in nothing happening , which makes 
sense afaik.

the variable WINSDK is   not one I am familiar with- it's not any 
environment or system variable on my machine and the tutorial doesn't 
say anything about it. I hesitate to start arbitrarily hacking build 
files based on error messages. It seems as though it ought to just work 
and perhaps this is a bug I should report or is it something else ?


Thank you!
