Issue
I am trying to run a simple program using JavaFX 11 with Eclipse, but I am getting this error:
Error occurred during initialization of boot layer
java.lang.module.FindException: Module format not recognized: D:\javafx-sdk-11.0.2\lib\src.zip
I followed these instructions. This is where JDK & JavaFX are located:
D:\javafx-sdk-11.0.2\
C:\Program Files\Java\jdk-11.0.2
The VM arguments are:
--module-path "D:\javafx-sdk-11.0.2\lib" --add-modules=javafx.controls,javafx.fxml
Please help to identify and rectify the problem. (I tried several things as suggested below, but nothing seems to be working.)
Solution
While making user library for JavaFX 11, I was adding all the files including .jar
and the src.zip
file.
However, now that I didn't select the src.zip
file, it's working fine. :-)
This is the VM argument:
--module-path "F:\javafx-sdk-11.0.2\lib" --add-modules=javafx.controls,javafx.graphics,javafx.fxml
(Yup, on this PC, I used the F: drive.)
Thanks all for your support!
