I’ve never done a Netbeans RCP app so I can’t say what is involved in that context, but for a plain JavaFX desktop app it isn’t so bad. I made a couple tasks in my Gradle script to generate a JRE with jimage and then an install package with jpackage (from JDK 14-ea). So far so good. (I had more pain dealing with JAXB post JDK 11 as I had gone forward expecting JPMS modules to still be available for it from somewhere after it was removed from the JDK. ) Regards, Scott
