msgilligan | I've made some improvements on my graalvm-oracle 25-EA branch. For anyone interested see the README here: https://github.com/nixpkgs-jdk-ea | 18:35:26 |
msgilligan | I'm also looking for people to review and merge a PR to update zulu24 from 24.0.1 to 24.0.2: https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/425621
Infinidoge 🏳️⚧️ are you around?
| 18:38:21 |
Infinidoge 🏳️⚧️ | Made a quick review | 21:02:48 |
msgilligan | Thanks! I responded to your comment. | 21:03:07 |
msgilligan | You gotta love Element's UX. I meant to put that response in a thread. Oh well. | 21:03:39 |
Infinidoge 🏳️⚧️ | Matrix threads aren't real and they can't hurt me. | 21:04:31 |
Infinidoge 🏳️⚧️ | Approved the PR, someone else would have to merge it | 21:05:16 |
msgilligan | Thanks! | 21:05:46 |
msgilligan | NixOS Vegas was great, btw. I was hoping to see you there. | 21:06:04 |
Infinidoge 🏳️⚧️ | I live on the east coast so if I'm going to a conference over there it's a special occasion | 21:11:05 |
Infinidoge 🏳️⚧️ | I will be at NixCon 2025 in Zurich though :) | 21:11:14 |
msgilligan | Nice! I wish I could go to that one — maybe next year 🤞 | 21:14:36 |

msgilligan | Merged! Thanks Infinidoge 🏳️⚧️ ! | 06:58:17 |

msgilligan | I was surprised to wake up this morning and find that my graalvm-oracle 25-EA PR was merged. (It looks like the graalvm-oracle 24 PR should also be merged soon.)
So, as of now the jdk-ea-25 branch of https://github.com/nixpkgs-jdk-ea/nixpkgs does not differ from upstream and is of no use. I will try to update the temurin-bin 25-EA PR next week.

msgilligan | BTW, I'm using this to compile a Java command-line tool that uses a native library via FFM ("Panama") with native-image and it is working on all 4 major Nix platforms. | 17:40:04 |
msgilligan | To use FFM within a native-image on aarch64 (Darwin and Linux) requires GraalVM 25, which is why I've been workin to make this available on Nix. | 17:41:23 |

msgilligan | I will migrate from EA to GA and from graalvm-oracle (non-free) to graalvm-ce when possible. | 17:42:24 |
vog | I pushed the final version incorporating all feedback, and just need a final review, to be able to quickly send my followup-PRs. | 19:19:25 |
msgilligan | I did some minimal testing and posted an approving review (details in the review) | 20:35:24 |
msgilligan | ... and my reviews are worth very penny that you pay for them 🤦♂️ | 23:12:00 |

msgilligan | Welcome Benedikt Ritter (britter) ! | 18:25:55 |
Benedikt Ritter (britter) | Cool! Didn't know about this room. | 18:55:16 |
Benedikt Ritter (britter) | Has anybody else noticed that the rich console in Gradle doesn't work anymore since a few versions when Gradle is installed using Nix? | 18:58:03 |
msgilligan | I haven't noticed . What happens? Does it fall back to plain mode or does the output get messed up somehow? | 19:37:50 |
msgilligan | I just did a quick test with Gradle 8.14.3 on aarch64 NixOS (in a nixos-lima VM) and it seems to default to plain mode (when I believe it should default to rich mode) | 19:44:59 |

msgilligan | github:nixpkgs-jdk-ea/nixpkgs/jdk-ea-25 now has both (unfree) GraalVM JDK 25 and Gradle 9.1.0-rc-1, so you can now build Java 25 source with Nix! | 01:28:45 |
