Trying to figure out how to build for three platforms using Idea and JavaFx

Answered

Hi,

I need to support Windows 10, Linux x86, and AArch32 ( and 64 ) on a Rasberry PI.  I will be deploying a Jpackage image with JVM and JavaFX bundled. 

1) I have been told that I must build on the target platform.  Is this true?  I would really like to build all of the images on my Windows machine with an artifact config for the target.

2) Does #1 mean that I will not be able to build for 32bit Rasberry PI?  ( Since Idea does not support 32 bit OSes. )

3) Does Idea run on the 64bit PI OS?  I am planning on building a machine with the latest Beta.

4) Linux, Microsoft, Apple, and PI all have AArch64 operating systems.  Does Idea care which of these I am building with?  ( as long as I have the correct openJDK for my platform )

 

Thanks, Hope this is not too much for one post.  

Tony

Alright, how about a more targeted question...

Can I use Idea to develop JavaFX for Rasberry PI AArch32?

 

Thanks,
Tony

Hi. You can build JavaFX jars on Windows and run them on Linux or Raspberry PI, for example check this article: https://webtechie.be/post/2019-04-01-pijava-part-4-building-a-minimal-javafx-11-application-with-maven/
