Packaging Javafx app for JDK7 using JDK8 and Netbeans 7.3
983995Apr 25 2013 — edited May 7 2013My problem is related to : [RT-26125|https://javafx-jira.kenai.com/browse/RT-26125] and [Bug 225326|https://netbeans.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=225326]
I first posted on the JIRA channel but maybe it's better asking here..
I was developing an application in JavaFX 2.2 with JDK 1.7.0.15 for MacOSX (i'm on Lion 10.7.5).
I needed the 'platform:basedir' feature of the native packager because i didn't want a JDK/JRE to be bundled with my app, so i also installed JDK8.
Right now the following configuration work properly :
- Netbeans 7.3 which uses JDK 1.8.0-ea-b73
- JavaFX 2.2 application which uses JDK 1.7.0.15
After updating both JDKs to JDK 1.7.0.21 and JDK 1.8.0-ea-b86, netbeans is no more capable of launching my application (a process without gui is launched instead).
This of course is related to the move of jfxrt.jar from lib/ to lib/ext but i can't find a way to configure either my application or netbeans to work as expected.
I have also tried using the lastest nighty build of Netbeans 8 without luck.
What i want at the end is to develop a JavaFX application targeting JDK7 and to be able to build a native package without any JDK/JRE bundled.
Any suggestion ?
Thanks
