Openjfx - Maven - IntelliJ: Cannot add Labels etc.
Answered
Hi everyone,
I tried to setup Openjfx with IntelliJ, but went into a compiler error though following this post: https://intellij-support.jetbrains.com/hc/en-us/community/posts/360000909940-Openjfx-11
If I do not add Labels, Buttons etc., the program behaves as normal (so creating a scene and parents is ok). But everytimes I do, I get this Exception:

This is my code:
package sample;
import javafx.application.Application;
import javafx.scene.Scene;
import javafx.scene.control.Label;
import javafx.scene.layout.HBox;
import javafx.stage.Stage;
public class Main extends Application {
@Override
public void start(Stage primaryStage){
HBox box = new HBox();
Label label = new Label("Test"); // this line throws the InvocationTargetException
box.getChildren().add(label);
Scene scene = new Scene(box);
primaryStage.setScene(scene);
primaryStage.show();
}
public static void main(String[] args) {
launch(args);
}
}
And this is my pom.xml:

Do you have any idea what causes the Exception?
Please sign in to leave a comment.
Check this thread ad a solution to specify --add-exports parameter: https://stackoverflow.com/a/43467136/2000323 In IDE you can add it in Settings(Preferences) | Build, Execution, Deployment | Compiler | Java Compiler | Additional command-line parameters to javac and for VM options to run configuration as a java parameter.
Thank you for your comment.
Now I added this command line parameter as the Stackoverflow thread suggests.
But I still get the same Exception.
Do you have another idea?
Why are you adding com.sun.javafx.collections when you have the exception with another package? Check which module ships this package and add this module and this package to add-exports.
