I am building a JavaFx application and I want to create a method that receives a GridPane and a Node[] with the amount of items being added to the pane. However, when I call the method I get a NoSuchMethodException.
As a test, I tried to create a simple method private String helloWorld() that would return "Hello World";. This method does work, but when I try to run gridLogin = buildForm(gridLogin, items);, I get the Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoSuchMethodException error.

This will solve your problem, install e(fx)clipse this plugin for eclise but i dont know for intellij ,or add facet for your application as javafx application, if you add facet you dont need main method , or use like this
public class DesktopApplication extends Application {
@Override
public void start(Stage primaryStage) {
BuildGraphicalUserInterface ui = new BuildGraphicalUserInterface();
ui.initStage(primaryStage);
}
public static void main(String[] args) {
launch(args);
}
}
