Hello,

I'm experiencing some trouble loading FXML-files in my efx4 application.

According to the recipe (https://wiki.eclipse.org/Efxclipse/Runtime/Recipes#.40FXMLLoader) I should use the following code snippet :

Quote:

public class MyLoginView {
@PostConstruct
void init(BorderPane p, @FXMLLoader FXMLLoaderFactory factory) {
GridPane p = factory.loadRequestorRelative("myLoginView.fxml").build();
// ...
}

However, this code gives me errors :
* first of all, type mismatch and duplicate local variable -> solved by leaving out "GridPane".
* ".build()" gives the error "The method build is indefined for the type FXMLBuilder<Object>"
* when changing "build()" to "load()", the application finally starts up but the widget is empty.

Any cues as how this code can be made to work ?
Is there any other example on how to load FXML files in a efx4 application ?

Just in case : I've not forgotten to link the class MyLoginView to the application model.

Thanks in advance,

Thomas Elskens

The snippet is wrong.

It should be:

> public class MyLoginView {
> @PostConstruct
> void init(BorderPane p, @FXMLLoader FXMLLoaderFactory factory) {
> GridPane gridPane = factory.loadRequestorRelative("myLoginView.fxml").load();
> p.setCenter(gridPane);
> // ...
> }
> }
