JavaFX 2.2 is only partially open source.
You can download the parts which are open from the zip link at:

http://hg.openjdk.java.net/openjfx/2.2/master/rt

JavaFX 8

JavaFX 8 is completely open source today.

Source for building JavaFX 8 (and the SceneBuilder design tool) is available at:

http://hg.openjdk.java.net/openjfx/8/master/rt

Source code for later versions (including Java 8 updates), is in the source code forest, an overview of which is at:

http://hg.openjdk.java.net/openjfx

If you don't need to build JavaFX 8 and just want the runtime sources in a zip, those are in the javafx-src.zip file from the JDK 8 download.

On OS X, the javafx-src.zip file is located at:

/Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/jdk1.8.0.jdk/Contents/Home/javafx-src.zip

  • thank u for the answer, So it is **partially open-source**. –  Nov 25 '12 at 18:56
  • @jewelsea the first link's folder has not been modified in 10 months, so apparently it is outdated – likejudo Jun 18 '13 at 14:44
  • @jiujitsu the JavaFX 2.2 source link is not currently outdated. The latest tag on that branch is 2.2-b21, which is the latest released non-preview version of JavaFX today. – jewelsea Jun 18 '13 at 16:37
  • @Jewelsea And how do openjfx major.minor version match with the one supplied with oracle? 2.2.3 == ? – manocha_ak Aug 06 '14 at 18:12
  • @maocha_ak see: [How to get the version number of JavaFX?](http://stackoverflow.com/questions/11266997/how-to-get-the-version-number-of-javafx) – jewelsea Aug 06 '14 at 18:19
  • Just for the case someone else was looking, too: If you have the JDK installed, you don't have to download the source jar separately. I found the source jar at the following location `C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.8.0_40\javafx-src.zip` on my machine running Windows 8. – Aufwind Mar 25 '15 at 17:53
  • `javafx-src.zip` is NOT in Java 1.7. And I'm still looking for a DOWNLOAD because all I see in those links are REPOSITORIES which I can't check out because the development PC at work doesn't have internet and the internet PC only has a browser! – Mark Jeronimus Aug 28 '15 at 08:01
  • @Mark there are zip/bz2/gz download links in the repository viewer for portions of JavaFX included with Java 1.7 that were open sourced. Here is a [direct link](http://hg.openjdk.java.net/openjfx/2.2/master/rt/archive/tip.zip). Public updates for Java 7 ended in April 2015, so the Java 7 platform is largely obsolete. For most people, the JavaFX 2.2 source download link is not applicable, as they will be using Java 8+, where the source is included with the JDK distribution. – jewelsea Aug 28 '15 at 17:00

believe me if you already have installed latest version of jdk and set jdk version in netbeans then it will not ask.

in my case i found jar files in folder C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.7.0_07\jre\lib just add all jar file in your project and you have done.
