This is awesome :)
Excellent! Will, do you have a signed OCA (Oracle Contributor Agreement)?
@willthames - we can't accept contributions to the JMC project without a signed OCA, just like contributions to Eclipse needs an ECL etc. It's a very simple procedure. Let me know if you need any assistance.
@thegreystone sorry, I missed your earlier comment there. It looks fairly straightforward so I'll try and sort out the paperwork in the next few days

Excellent! Thanks a bunch! :)
@thegreystone my OCA came through the other day - I'm on the list now.
Excellent! Thanks Will!
Was a bit too quick - JMC should be built with JDK 8 for now, and I run into some trouble unless I switch to using JDK 8. @willthames - do you mind if I amend the final check-in into the mercurial repo by instead doing FROM openjdk:8-jdk-stretch?
@thegreystone whatever works for you but this works perfectly for me under JDK 11 - what is the issue that needs this to be built under JDK 8?
Hm. Weird, we never got the tooling to work properly under JDK 11, but perhaps the updates to the latest and greatest make it easier. For me it failed. Perhaps we can take a closer look later, but core is intended to be built with JDK 7 (still used by code at Oracle that I think still runs on JDK 7 for certain services), and the app is intended to be runnable in Eclipse running on a JDK 8.
Either way, thank you for the contribution!
Use docker-compose to create appropriate containers for following the build instructions, and put the result in the target directory.
