Description
Once we have successful test builds using JDK 8 on all platforms (see RT-27793), and have verified which build of JDK 8 we need to use, we will switch all FX8 Hudson build and test jobs to use JDK 8.

Dev and SQE have done with testings and gave a GO to build JavaFX 8 with JDK 8.

SQE has done with testings and gave a GO for us to upgrade to JDK8 for building JavaFX 8. See the details below or in RT-29884.

I checked the artifacts from Hudson, comparing the JDK 7-based build to the JDK 8-based build for all platforms and everything was as expected. Since there are know regressions attributable to using JDK 8 to build FX 8, this is a GO from me.

SQE did some testing and found the issues. See the details below.

Also, there were some other errors, but not so big, and I don't think they're bound with JDK8. -- Dmitry Ginzburg, FXSQE team member thanks, Mikhail

RT-17053 : Filtered / sorted list Additionally, the following two features require JDK 8 in order to run correctly (or at all) on the Mac: 5. RT-17383 : Printing 6. RT-20784 : Headful AWT
