Hi Andreas,

Indeed, it should work that simply! However I have attempted to follow
those steps now about five times over using as many and more tutorials, and
after completely uninstalling and reinstalling my IDE. I am not attempting
to use Maven or Gradle. The loader (which I've confirmed is located in one
of the jar files I am utilizing) is still giving me issues with a
ClassNotFoundException. I am making sure to follow online sources speaking
about version 3.0 and above.
Are you able to edit your source and eclipse compiles the source for you? The project configuration is ok it if works.

To run your class, mark it on the left hand side in the package explorer, open the context menu and choose "Run As -> Java Application"

That's it.

Andreas


I'll look into more tutorials related to Eclipse and unrelated to PDFBox to
see if I can learn anything useful. Thank you for your reply!

Hi,

all IDEs I know are working similar.

Create a new project using File -> New -> Java Project, follow the
instructions

Add all needed jars to your environment using Project -> Properties ->
Java Build Path -> Libraries

That's it for a simple project without using any build tool like maven
or gradle.

There are tons of tutorials on how to setup/configure an eclipse
project. It isn't hard to find them using your favorite search engine.

Tilman,

Thank you very much for your response! I happened upon both of those
links while trying to solve the problem on my own, but ran through them
again now since I've just recently freshly installed my Eclipse to make
sure it wasn't an issue with my program.

I tried moving my .jars from Modulepath into Classpath and got a
slightly different error message. This time it's a NoClassDefFoundError
caused by a ClassNotFoundException. I've attached a new screenshot with
that error shown.

On the second link, I attempted Solution 2's "Example working JavaFX
application with maven," and am still getting the same error.

I strongly suspect this is something to do with the pom.xml file I see
floating around. Only one tutorial I happened across suggested adjusting
it slightly for a PDFBox install. Is that a step I might be missing? I
hadn't thought much of it since it isn't mentioned anywhere else.

Thank you for your time.

Regards,
Allen Marshall

     Hi,

     I don't use eclipse myself. There have been questions about it from
     time
     to time, I assume that this IDE isn't intuitive enough to "just
work".
     Here an answer about this:

     Is this "personal register" related to the specific project? Or is it
     just a register of libraries you like? Or is it the name of your
     project?

     doesn't answer but it shows a "class path" which your screenshot
     doesn't
     show so maybe investigate that, i.e. whether the libraries are in
your
     classpath at runtime.

     pdfbox-3.0.2.jar is the correct file (one of them). You likely won't
     need preflight, pdfdebuger and xmpbox.
