Sorry, something went wrong.
Linux builds would previously throw this error on startup: > java.lang.reflect.InaccessibleObjectException: Unable to make field private > static java.lang.String sun.awt.X11.XToolkit.awtAppClassName accessible: > module java.desktop does not "opens sun.awt.X11" to unnamed module @4c8aea9c The code that triggered this in Processing itself documented that an `--add-opens` parameter must be used, but this was never applied in the gradle build.

The code that triggered this in Processing itself documented that an --add-opens parameter must be used, but this was never applied in the gradle build. This now matches the --add-opens parameter used in build/linux/processing.
