JavaFX E4 Application is stuck in MacApplication._runloop() when launched from developer Eclipse [message #1769979]

Hi,

we are developing an E4 application with pure JavaFX (without SWT) and
efxclipse.
Everything is running fine on Linux and Windows. We build the product with
Tycho (User Build) or launch it from inside our developer Eclipse (Developer
Build).

Unfortunately, MacOSX gives us some headaches: launching the user build from
a terminal succeeds as expected. However, when using a run configuration and
launching the product from the developer Eclipse no stage is created and the
JavaFX thread is stuck in MacApplication._runloop() native code.

Additionally, the examples provided by efxclipse work even in the developer setting, but we weren't able to find any differences to our application launch setup.

Has anyone run across this problem or can even provide a solution?

Thanks in advance,
Florian

Can you provide a screenshot of your launch configuration with the arguments tab - Eclipse unfortunately is extra smart it is really important that eg your "Program arguments" look like this "-nl ${target.nl} -consoleLog -nosplash", no os and ws parameter
