How to construct an executable jar with JavaFX dependencies?

Question

I am building an application with JavaFX and I work with maven. I want to be able to make a jar file for the end user with the JavaFX dependencies included, so that the end-user doesn't have to install JavaFX to run the excutable.

Can someone tell how to do this?

But these links say nothing about JavaFX dependencies? The executable should not require any dependencies like JavaFX installed on the end-user computer to run. — n00b1990, Apr 25 '14 at 14:25

Have a look at Daniel Zwolenski's blog

He shows how to build a Maven wrapper around the javafxpackager tool; this includes building "self-contained applications" that include the JRE (and JavaFX) as part of a native executable application.

You can use tools like JSmooth or Launch4j to create such executables. The jfxrt and other dependencies can be added in classpath in any of those tools.
