Launching a JavaFX Application from Script

[Explv]

Edit: Nevermind, got the error now:

 

Caused by: java.lang.IllegalStateException: This operation is permitted on the event thread only; currentThread = pool-1-thread-2

 

 

I am having issues with launching a JavaFX application from the onStart method in Script.

There is no issue with the application itself, as it works perfectly fine when called from the main method in the same class.

 

I am launching the application using the following code, it produces "error in script onStart()", but no useful message:

@Override
public void onStart(){

    ClassName.launch(ClassName.class);
}

Thanks

You need to encapsulate it within a JFrame.

public class YourGui extends JFXPanel {

...

    public static JFrame create() {
        JFrame frame = new JFrame();
        YourGui gui = new YourGui ();
        Platform.runLater(() -> {
            gui.init();
            frame.setContentPane(gui);
        });
    }

    public void init() {
        final BorderPane container = new BorderPane();
        container.setTop(someComponent);
        container.setCenter(someOtherComponent);
        
        final Scene scene = new Scene(container);
        setScene(scene);
    }

...

}

Edit: You might only need to wrap the GuiClass.launch in a Platform.runLater

Just tried:

Platform.runLater(() -> ClassName.launch(ClassName.class));

But no dice, I will try your full solution now, thanks man

    public void init() {
        final BorderPane container = new BorderPane();
        container.setTop(someComponent);
        container.setCenter(someOtherComponent);
        
        final Scene scene = new Scene(container);
        setScene(scene);
