Oracle Announces Release of Java Development Kit 8, Update 40 - Seite 2

Continued Innovations in Java FX
New JavaFX features and enhancements include:

• Ability to modernize the JavaFX stack on Mac OS X (JEP 206): The JavaFX media stack has been ported on Mac OS X from QTKit and Quicktime, which have been deprecated, to the newer AVFoundation framework. With this, developers using the JavaFX media stack can now gain Mac App Store acceptance and have the opportunity to have their applications released on the Mac App Store.
• JavaFX Accessibility (JEP 204): Existing JavaFX controls to support assistive technologies have been enhanced and a public API is provided for developers to write their own accessible controls.
