Error: JavaFX runtime components are missing - JavaFX 11 and OpenJDK 11 and Eclipse IDE

I have this classical issue: Using JavaFX 11 with OpenJDK 11 together with Eclipse IDE.

Error: JavaFX runtime components are missing, and are required to run this application

I have OpenJDK 11.0.2

dell@dell-pc:~$ java -version
openjdk version "11.0.2" 2019-01-15
OpenJDK Runtime Environment 18.9 (build 11.0.2+9)
OpenJDK 64-Bit Server VM 18.9 (build 11.0.2+9, mixed mode)
dell@dell-pc:~$

And I also have JavaFX 11 SDK. By the way! I'm using Lubuntu Linux 18.10 if you wonder. enter image description here

Then I have included the .jar files from the JavaFX 11 SDK in Eclipse IDE into a library package.

Then I have included this library package into my JAdaptiveMPC project. enter image description here

I get no error in my code syntax, but still, I cannot compile my project. enter image description here

Do you know why? I got the same error if I import all those .jar files from Maven instead of download the JavaFX SDK and import it into a library.

I have added this in the Run Configuration

And then I try to run enter image description here

Still errors.

Solution

  • Your problem is not compiling the project, but running it. Since your main is defined in your Application-extension, running the project will require JavaFX in your module path on startup.

    So either outsource your main into a class different from your Application or add the JavaFX modules with VM arguments:

    --module-path="<javafx-root>\lib" --add-modules="javafx.base,javafx.controls,…"

    See this for some more info.
