I agree, don't want to download a JDK.
Is there a way to simply to it the old but good way using maven assembly
plugin or shade plugin?
I am following this guide here:
https://openjfx.io/openjfx-docs/#modular
I have done what they suggest in my pom file:
<dependency> <groupId>org.openjfx</groupId> <artifactId>javafx-controls</artifactId> <version>${javafx.version}</version> </dependency> <dependency>
<groupId>org.openjfx</groupId> <artifactId>javafx-fxml</artifactId> <version>${javafx.version}</version> </dependency> <dependency> <groupId>org.openjfx</groupId>
<artifactId>javafx-graphics</artifactId> <version>14</version> <classifier>win</classifier> </dependency>
<plugin> <groupId>org.openjfx</groupId> <artifactId>javafx-maven-plugin</artifactId> <version>${javafx.maven.plugin.version}</version> <configuration> <mainClass>org.dpsoftware.FastScreenCapture</mainClass> </configuration> </plugin> <plugin> <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId> <artifactId>maven-assembly-plugin</artifactId> <configuration> <outputDirectory>${project.build.directory}/</outputDirectory> <finalName>JavaFastScreenCapture</finalName> </configuration> <executions> <execution> <id>make-executable-jar-with-dependencies</id> <phase>package</phase> <goals> <goal>single</goal> </goals> <configuration> <archive> <manifest> <addClasspath>true</addClasspath> <mainClass>org.dpsoftware.FastScreenCapture</mainClass> </manifest> </archive> <descriptorRefs> <descriptorRef>jar-with-dependencies</descriptorRef> </descriptorRefs> </configuration> </execution>
</executions> </plugin>
jar with dependencies says
Error: JavaFX runtime components are missing, and are required to run
this application
still don't understand how to do it the right way.
I would like to do it with maven, is this possible?
Thanks,
Davide

jlink and jdeps are module-based, so you do have to be careful. Neither will
work properly when you try to run it against a non-modular project (found that
out the hard way when Java 11 broke the world by removing the EE modules from
Java SE and no modules were available to replace them), but you can use them to
make a JRE image from a set of modules, such as those supplied by OpenJFX.
I still think the .jmod files should be hosted by artifact repositories to make
this work smoothly. Downloading an SDK, seems so old-school when we have good
dependency-management tools.
Once you have a JRE image that includes JavaFX, then your application Jar files
(all of them, no need to make anything 'fat') can easily be bundled with that
JRE using jpackage.
I have done Gradle scripts to do all that and it wasn’t difficult.

In order to create a real platform installer with jpackage and jlink/jdeps you
don't have to use the java
module system at all. Have a look at this tutorial which I co-autored together

Unfortunantly so few dependencies supports Java Modules this day, so fat JAR is
the only way I can do it.

The JavaFX classes are there, but what about the native libraries?
A fat jar isn’t a good way to distribute a Java application these days. Now you
should probably be using jpackage and/or jlink to bundle your application
classes with a runtime suitable for running the application.

Hi all,
thanks for the great project, I love JavaFX.
I always used the maven plugin to crete fat jars with all my deps. The
resulting jar is an executable one and ready to use.
This is my pom that create the fat jar.
but when I try to exceute the jar I get this error:
Error: JavaFX runtime components are missing, and are required to run this appli
cation
if I explode the fat jar I can see that there are the javafx class in it. what
am I doing wrong?
Thanks
