I have the following event handler:

public class AssignPAMHandler {
	private static final Logger logger = Logger.getLogger(AssignPAMHandler.class);
	@Execute
	public void execute() {
		System.err.println(Thread.currentThread());
		showDialog();
	}
	private void showDialog() {
		Display.getDefault().asyncExec(() -> showDialogSWT());
	}
	private void showDialogSWT() {
		System.err.println(Thread.currentThread());
		new JFXPanel(); // initializes JavaFX environment
		Platform.runLater(() -> showDialogFX());
	}
	private void showDialogFX() {
		System.err.println(Thread.currentThread());
		TextInputDialog dialog = new TextInputDialog("walter");
		dialog.setTitle("Text Input Dialog");
		dialog.setHeaderText("Look, a Text Input Dialog");
		dialog.setContentText("Please enter your name:");
		dialog.showAndWait().ifPresent(name -> System.out.println("Your name: " + name));
	}
}


When I execute this handler via a menu item, I get the following output and exception (the dialog shows up, nevertheless):

Thread[main,6,main]

The executing thread seems to be the same all the time and the FX dialog shows up. Nevertheless, the exception is thrown.

Why JFXPanel? Use FXCanvas to bootstrap JavaFX in an SWT env
