Export Wizard - slow, multiple builds of each model. Can this be changed ?

When I use the Export Wizard in Eclipse to build my app for all of the devices that I support, the info in the Connect IQ console window indicates that each model is being built at least twice. Some are built 3 times. The build for export takes hours so I'm looking for ways to cut that time down, so if there are duplicate builds happening, I'd love to stop them.

I get Icon size warnings on most builds whether I'm building to run on the simulator or building the whole package with the Export Wizard.

I'm not concerned about the Icon warnings, but the warnings happen only once for each individual build when I'm building to run with the Simulator, and as you can see below, they happen 2-3 times when building with the Export Wizard.

I was going to attach a .TXT file but can't see how to make that happen. If you can explain how to do that, please do.

If you can help me stop multiple builds, or understand that this is necessary, please let me know.

Thanks

Here's the text in the .TXT file

Which site did you get your zip file from ?

0 jim_m_58 over 3 years ago in reply to Jeff

I think it was this one: https://jdk.java.net/17/

I just removed Java and re-installed with java version 1.8.0_241.

The complete build with the Export Wizard that took 4 hours now takes (drum roll..) 2 minutes.

Truly incredible.

Thanks very much

TL;DR I think Adoptium Eclipse Temurin is the recommended JDK distribution now.

I know this is an old comment, but note that jdk.java.net points to Oracle OpenJDK builds, which are only updated for 6 months (even LTS versions). For this reason, many people do not recommend Oracle OpenJDK (since you lose out on bug/security fixes, unless you constantly upgrade to the latest major JDK version, which could of course cause things to break).

The "standard recommendation" used to be AdoptOpenJDK, but it's been deprecated in favor of Adoptium Eclipse Temurin

Adoptium Eclipse Temurin

Website | Releases | Docker Images

Eclipse Adoptium is a top-level project under the Eclipse Foundation, which provides resources and a professional governance model for open source software. The Adoptium Working Group consists of major companies and organizations that have a strategic interest in the Java technology, including Red Hat, IBM, Microsoft, Azul, and the iJUG. The former AdoptOpenJDK project has moved to Eclipse Adoptium.

The Adoptium OpenJDK builds are called Eclipse Temurin to distinguish the project from the builds.

Eclipse Temurin builds are high-quality, vendor-neutral, and TCK-tested under a permissive license.

Adoptium states, it will continue to build binaries for LTS releases as long as the corresponding upstream source is actively maintained.

Recommendation: Adoptium Eclipse Temurin OpenJDK builds are highly recommended.
