Hi,
thanks. That is the explanation. I have Firefox an Chromium installed
and Chromium is missing in the browsers list in line 162. My immediate
problem could be solved by adding "chromium" to this list. But it still
wouldn't be a good solution as it doesn't take into account any kind of
priority users with different browsers might have as it doesn't use any
of Linux' ways to define default applications. It also doesn't work
with less popular browsers.
I will keep using Desktop.getDesktop().browse(Uri uri) for the time
being as this seems to be working better at the moment.

Hello all,
I've been trying to figure out which mechanism JavaFX uses in Linux
to
determine the default browser with which to open the passed URI.
I'm using Manjaro Linux and this method always opens links in
Firefox.
My default browser is Chrome, though. In all the applications I've
tested it (which honestly aren't that many) this setting gets
respected
and links are opened in Chrome.
The "default application"-situation in Linux is a bit complicated,
see
for example
https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/default_applications.
There many different places default applications can be set and
obviously I haven't found the one which JavaFX uses, yet. Can you
give
me a hint where to look?
