Hi guys.

This is my first post here in this forum, so I hope that I am in the right place here.

I am trying to learn how to use JavaFX. I am using a new Windows 10 PC and eclipse for my own projects as a student. I installed e(fx)clipse via the market place and created a user library, including javafx.base, .controls, . fxml, .graphics, .media, .swing, and .web. According to various tutorials, you should be able to add this user library to your project. I did but the errors did not disappear at first. After adding the library to the module.path and not the classpath, it all worked out and the errors disappeared.

index.php/fa/41039/0/

But now I get this long error-message if I try to run a project. How can I fix this? Any ideas?

index.php/fa/41040/0/

Hope you guys can help me.
Stay healthy. :)

Hello,

you could try to add the arguments -Djavafx.verbose=true and -Dprism.verbose=true to your run configuration. In doing so you'll get more log output to work with.

It could be that you're missing some native libs or a graphic driver and indeed it could be related to your first issue.

For this (follow-up) issue please take a look at https://github.com/javafxports/openjdk-jfx/issues/237 as well.
