Hello.
We have an AM335X based system using the Linaro Linux from SDK 07.00.00.00. Is it possible to get Java (with JavaFX) running on this system, to display graphics on top of the framebuffer?
Thank you.

Hello Fatih,
Just to be clear, the last AM335x Linux Processor SDK we released is 6.3. Are you talking about the AM335x Linux SDK 7.0 from 5-6 years ago? What version of Linux is it?

Nick
Hello, Nick.
Correct: it is the SDK 07.00.00.00 from 2014, using linux-3.12.10-ti2013.12.01.

Hello Fatih,
I have good news and bad news.
Bad news: Linux software from 2014 is too old for me to support on the forums. Additionally, Java is a 3rd party non-TI software, so I cannot provide support around it as per our Open Source Software Support Disclaimer. If you want support on the forums, you will need to update to a recent version of the Linux Processor SDK.
Good news: people have gotten Java working on AM335x, including on older versions of software. The wiki page How to add a JVM might be helpful. Note that wiki pages will go offline at the end of 2020. That page will not be migrated to other platforms, so you should save a local copy if you want to reference it later. Additionally, I suggest doing a site search to find other threads where people got Java working. I typically go to google and type something like this:
site:e2e.ti.com AM335x Java
You should be able to find posts like How to Run Java GUI Application on AM335x SK that could be helpful.
Regards,
Nick
