JavaFX native packager in Java 9 and Java 10 is broken under Mac OS X

carcour-JavaNet

I've used the javafx:com.sun.javafx.tools.ant ant task to generate a native binary for my App since Java 7. My native installer (used since 5-6 years) worked on Java 7 and Java 8 but on Java 9, my icon is missing and on Java 10, the generated '.app' on Mac OS 10.10 doesn't launch.

Here are the following details:

Hi,

please file a bug report at bugs.java.com . If you would like to attempt to debug the crash yourself, you'll need to build a JDK suitable for debugging, i.e. including debugging symbols. Please see http://hg.openjdk.java.net/jdk9/jdk9/raw-file/a08cbfc0e4ec/common/doc/building.html for details.
