Description
This release of OpenJDK 8 updates to the latest maintenance release of the Java 8 specification. This relaxes the specification of three methods in the `java.awt.Robot` class - `mouseMove(int,int)`, `getPixelColor(int,int)` and `createScreenCapture(Rectangle)` - to allow these methods to fail when the desktop environment does not
permit moving the mouse pointer or capturing screen content.
