You just solved the problem in under 5 mins what others couldn't do in their 2 page long post or 30 min long video! You are doing an amazing job! Keep up the good work man
Thanks for the help! Having a recent version of this tutorial is really nice because other videos I watched that are a couple years old they are clicking on stuff that sometimes aren't even on my screen haha! I like that it's simple and straight and easy to follow!
Believe me when I say that you are a real hero. I have been trying out other solutions and watching many other videos, but none helped. I wish I had found your video earlier. Thank you a lot.
Hello, thank you so much it works.Tip for MacOS users, when you get to the Arguments section, I would also uncheck the box where it says Use the -XstartOnFirstThread argument when launching with SWT. I would not be able to see the stage window otherwise. Peace
Thankyou so much. I had been trying to run java fx for few hours now. I saw lot of videos and posts ..nothing was working but your 5 minute video solved my problem. Thankyou.
Quick note: You do NOT need e(fx)clipse plugin, in my case Eclipse crashed after it installed and I was unable to start it anymore (had to reinstall eclipse entirely, safe mode wouldnt boot either) Followed the other instructions and got it working :)
I just solved the problem with Eclipse 2023, Java JDK 21.0.2, JavaFX 21.0.2 and got it to work using your method! It took a while, but after updating everything, it finally worked. Thanks!
Error occurred during initialization of boot layer java.lang.module.FindException: Module format not recognized: C:\Users\Marco Jean\Downloads\openjfx-21.0.1_windows-x64_bin-sdk.zip can't open because of this error how could I fix this
This saved me so much stress just trying to Google everything was a PITA seeing and following along helped. Thank You. NOTE: I'm not sure why I had to run Eclipse as an administrator to install the IDE plugin it took several tries.
Thank you for this film. I believe it got me much closer to where I needed to be in getting JavaFX to work with eclipse. Now I must find some missing "JavaFX runtime components".
Hello Everybody. First of all I want to thank Lukas for this video because I need JavaFX for University. The older video I found on youtube in order to setup Java FX on Eclipseto help me didn't have the detail on module you pointed it out at 4:30. So to know University of people made your video as an install reference today for JavaFX in 2nd term I am now. Keep It up.
@@robertsteele7906 hello, on the marketplace in eclipse it took a while to dowland e(fx) file and after dowland it restart the eclipse if you did not restart after dowlond it wont seen javafx file try it like that
I'm so confused for 20minutes because it still causes issues even when I followed every instructions, then I noticed that I forgot to add a quotation mark to the VM arguments and when I added it, it works! thank you very much!
When I attempted to create a new project by going into "other" with Eclipse version 2024-03 (4.31.0), I couldn't find JavaFX. I struggled to figure out what was wrong, but when I reinstalled the version to 22-03, the issue was resolved! XD
So what happens when you install E(fx)clipse, but none of the options for creating a new JavaFX project come up in the File>Other menu, and there is no option to add the Java FX library in the BuildPath. I have to set up E(FX)Clipse every few years, and I get this issue.
how to download e(fx)clipse? i just click install but it said review licenses then i just click finish then i restart my eclipse to check the download but i cant see a e(fx)clipse pls help me im new
If only works if I set Java-SE to 14 I also got another Problem for a Lab I need to create a JavaFx Project but the folders are already there with the files in You got Discord to connect?
just use maven to add dependency to your project and copy artifact from maven repository to your pom file. all of you can use JDK 8 - javafx is there. if you use jdk greater than 9, javafx was removed and we have to add it by maven. Then add to your module info java modules from java fx
It said it was unable to find the Javafx controls file and now i can no longer open eclipse because "The executable launcher was unable to locate its companion shared library"
Thank u so much. I was trying to set up java installation and everything works until Vm. But problem Was in dependencies. By watching video I figure it out. Thanks
I have Eclipse 2020-03 version installed and when I tried to install the plug in through the marketplace it says it is not compatible. What should I do? help!
Thank you so much brother. I am just curious, do you have a DEEP understanding of computers ? Or how did you possibly figure this out? Impressive the things people like yourself solve.
hello, thank you so much but im having the following error: Error occurred during initialization of boot layer java.lang.module.FindException: Module javafx.controls not found
Hi Lucas. I have tried different ways and am not successful in creating a new JavaFX project. I am running Linux Ubuntu version: Ubuntu 22.04.3 LTS, latest version of Eclipse 2023-12 and latest version of java-21-openjdk-amd64. I follow your instructions exactly until the step to create a new JavaFX project. When I select New, I cannot find any JavaFX directories. If I go to others, I don't see it either. So I can't create a new FX project. However, the libraries are correctly assigned under User libraries Any idea would be appreciated.
So this enabled my JavaFX classes to run on Eclipse, but many of my other regular Java classes will not compile now due to some general java.lang error.
thank you! I followed instructions to a T yet I didn't have the classpath trouble after creating a JavaFX project. Maybe they patched it in a recent Eclipse or JavaFX SDK version
Thanks for your tutorial it really helped me ! Also how can we make a runnable JAR file that is self dependent (that has all the javafx JAR into itself, so we can run the JAR alone) Thanks for your help
Hey sorry for the late reply, yes that is something I am looking into myself personally, I have encountered an issue that doesn't load all the libraries when I try to run it as jar, will definitely let you know if I figure it out
Gold, I could only find old videos. This changes so much over the years. Glad you posted. Thank you.

So this enabled my JavaFX classes to run on Eclipse, but many of my other regular Java classes will not compile now due to some general java.lang error.
Note: you may have to restart eclipse once you add JavaFX. Usually, a pop up window will appear once you’ve added the library.
