Hi there,

In my deployed efxclipse product, the osgi console simply doesn't show up on product startup. The "-console" argument is added. The plugins:

org.eclipse.equinox.console
org.apache.felix.gogo.command
org.apache.felix.gogo.runtime
org.apache.felix.gogo.shell

are existant in plugins-folder of the exported product. The default console doesn't show up too, although the argument "-consoleLog" is added.

I'm running the appplication on win 7 with java 1.8_20. Targetplatform is Luna with efxclipse 1.2 .

Any hints on this issue ?

Kind regards

IIRC you need to use -console to use the OSGi console.

I did. I was just saying that the default console doesn't show up too. Smile

Is org.eclipse.equinox.console part of your product? Is it added in one of your product features?

It is. As well as:

org.apache.felix.gogo.command
org.apache.felix.gogo.runtime
org.apache.felix.gogo.shell

Has anyone tried to run a deployed efxclipse product with an osgi console, yet ?

How are you launching the exported product? Did you use the
javafx-packager?

Please note that to pass a on command parameters you need to make the
javafx-packager aware of them.

I built it with maven and deployed it with the build.xml ant script. So i guess the product ist launched via equinox ?

Ok so this means you used the javafx-packager application! You need to
modify the build.xml file to make the native binary pass on the -console
-consoleLog flags!

See
http://docs.oracle.com/javafx/2/deployment/javafx_ant_task_reference.htm#CIACICCF
and
http://docs.oracle.com/javafx/2/deployment/javafx_ant_task_reference.htm#CIAHJIJG

Thank you for pointing me to this reference. I always felt that i was missing something.

Since "-console" and "-consoleLog" are program/application arguments. I assume the build.xml should look like this

<fx:application id="fxApplication" name="sandbox" mainClass="org.eclipse.equinox.launcher.Main" toolkit="swing">
<param name = "consoleLog"/>
<param name = "console"/>
</fx:application>

I tried several variations of this with "-console" & "-consoleLog" also tried the fx:argument and argument tag (basically the same i guess?). Neither brought the console to show up.

Btw. the eclipse.ini of the exported product looks like this

-nosplash
-consoleLog
-console
-vmargs
-Dosgi.framework.extensions=org.eclipse.fx.osgi

Noone is looking at this file, only the eclipse launcher would have but
the exe you see is generated by the javafx packager. Dod you try jvmArgs
I can remember having seen them working.

I added

<fx:platform>
	<fx:jvmarg value="-Xms0m"/>
	<fx:jvmarg value="-Xmx0m"/>	
</fx:platform>

which should produce an Error(Couldn't create Java Virtual Machine),
but after deploying via build.xml the applications starts as usual.
I also tried to monitor the jvm of the deployed product via jps, to see if jvm args(with proper values) are passed, but it said that the process information was unavailable.
Also , when i call Platform.getCommandlineArgs() or Application.getParameters(), the List is empty. Do you think it is possible that there might be a bug ?

At least I know I used this on OS-X if I remember correctly. I'll give
it a try on os-x to see if it works.

Naturally you are most likely better of testing this with a simple
JavaFX application and once you are confident it works there as
advertised you then try applying this to e4+javafx.

I think I only tried:

<fx:platform>
<property name="purpose" value="sample value"/>
</fx:platform>

So you should be able to check them with
System.getProperties().getProperty("purpose").

A small update: It is possible to pass at least VM-Arguments by modifying the package.cfg file in the deployed product:

app.mainjar=plugins\org.eclipse.equinox.launcher_1.3.0.v20140415-2008.jar
app.version=1.0
app.id=fxApplication
app.preferences.id=fxApplication
app.mainclass=org/eclipse/equinox/launcher/Main
jvmarg.1= -vmargument
app.classpath=

It took me quite long to figure that out, so i though it might be helpful to mention it here.

Thanks - from my understanding that's what the ant statements should
have produced, not?

At least my attempts to modify the ant script did fail, no matter if i used property, param, argument or jvmarg.

pckage.cfg stayed:

app.mainjar=plugins\org.eclipse.equinox.launcher_1.3.0.v20140415-2008.jar
app.version=1.0
app.id=fxApplication
app.preferences.id=fxApplication
app.mainclass=org/eclipse/equinox/launcher/Main
app.classpath=

But since i'm not familiar with ant, it might be possible that i put the statements/tags in wrong places, allthough tha ant script didn't complain.
