Problem when building from source for v4.1 #3657
Comments
Hi, this is a bug we recently fixed. I suggest you direclty compile the latest master. |
I am asking just out of curiosity: would it not be possible to have semantic versioning that also includes patches like, e.g., |
Hi, we do not follow semantic versioning, but we have tags for the release versions. Due to time and manpower constraints (we all work in our freetime on this project) we do not maintain release branches. Just out of curiosity: Why don't you use prebuilt jar version of the release? |
I understand. Well, thank you, above all, for the amazing product. I really like it and I really appreciate your work. In my opinion,
Do you mean the One question though. I am not knowledgeable about Java, and forgive me if the question is very stupid. Will it matter if I use Oracle version or the OpenJDK version, on my machine, when it comes to using the prebuilt binaries? |
Oracle vs OpenJDK does not really matters. We had some troubles with OpenJDK in the past, but they should be fixed if you use recent versions (of JabRef and of OpenJDK).

No separate develop branch. "master" is the main integration branch and we always use that version in our daily scientific work. We know about release early, release often, but we try to collect new features together. For internal reference: The compile error got fixed at #3623. |
Thank you, @koppor, for clarifying the
Yes, I realized it a couple of versions ago, and I installed it:
So, you say that I am safe with |
@aytekinar I would say so. We had issues with old OpenJFX packages, but arch always ships the newest ones, so this is good to go! |
Hey,
I am having problems installing JabRef from source, which I could do before. Apparently, there is some usage of a deprecated function (see the tail of the log below). I am not sure if I can solve this problem myself, or I should simply install from
master
. I would like to track if at all possible the tagged versions.===
