Hi all,
I am facing some problems in generating native(win) launcher for e4 efxclipse.

My configurations are as follows :
win 7,
e(fx)clipse - IDE - Basic 2.1.0.201508240705 org.eclipse.fx.ide.basic.feature.feature.group
target definition file:
<location includeAllPlatforms="false" includeConfigurePhase="true" includeMode="slicer" includeSource="true" type="InstallableUnit">
<unit id="org.eclipse.fx.target.feature.feature.group" version="2.0.0.201506240602"/>
<repository location="http://download.eclipse.org/efxclipse/runtime-released/2.0.0/site/"/>
</location>


Steps i am following are as below :

My application getting run successfully from eclipse.

When i run my maven tycho build from cmd : "mvn clean install" its successfully getting finished.

Then when i try to run java -jar plugins/org.eclipse.equinox.launcher_1.3.100.v20150511-1540.jar -config configuration

I am getting logs in configuration directory as below.

Then i tried to build my ant build as JavaFX Packager is mandatory for native launcher.
I have got some errors.
So, I installed Wix and Inno setup 5 (5.5.6) as they were required for win environment.

Then again i tried to build ant.
It got successful.
So its having installer and .msi in deploy/bundle directory in releng project.

So when i execute installer it starts copying all data to C:\Users\user\AppData\Local\trial\
and when it finished it also run my trial.exe.

But no UI came up.

Then i found logs in C:\Users\user\AppData\Local\trial\app\workspace\.metadata\ .log as below without any exception.

Is there anything wrong i am doing building steps?

Is there any way to verify build after tycho build has generated product?


Thanks in advance !

if you launch with java -jar you need to pass the
Dorg.osgi.framework.bundle.parent=ext

These logs are ok and a "bug" in equinox ds so I have indication what is
wrong.

Hi tom,
Thanks Smile
yes its working from Command line now.

Problem was with DLL path. It was not having local path to my dlls then i had to give properties to fx packager via build.xml

<fx:platform basedir="${java.home}">
	 <fx:property name="org.osgi.framework.bundle.parent" value="ext"/>
	 <fx:property name="log4j.configuration" value="platform:/plugin/com.mil.trial.fx.app.app/log4j.properties "/>
	 <fx:property name="java.library.path" value="C:\UserData\Trial_dlls"/></fx:platform>

just adding this point for information for others.

I was working on native launcher on windows and found that icon is not getting replaced with my application icon.

I googled and found this .

And tried it as below and it worked Smile


1) I copied my icons to releng project.
2) I edited my build.xml as below pointing my icon file in <fx:icon> tag.

<fx:deploy
	verbose="true" 
	embedJNLP="false"
	extension="false"
	includeDT="false"
	offlineAllowed="true"
	outdir="${basedir}/deploy"
	outfile="fix-ide"
	nativeBundles="all"
	updatemode="background"
	>      
	<fx:platform basedir="${java.home}">
	        <fx:property name="org.osgi.framework.bundle.parent" value="ext"/>
		<fx:property name="log4j.configuration" value="platform:/plugin/com.mil.trial.fx.app.app/log4j.properties "/>
		<fx:property name="java.library.path" value="C:\UserData\trial_dlls"/>
	</fx:platform>
	<fx:info title="trial" vendor="mil">
		<fx:icon href="./icons/icons/bmp/trial.ico" />
	</fx:info>
	<fx:application refid="fxApplication"/>
	<fx:resources refid="appRes"/>
</fx:deploy>
