I installed the Java SE 8u25 JDK (64 Bit) from Oracle, which should include JavaFX.
I'm using Win7 64 Bit, Eclipse Helios and included the jre in the classpath as shown here:
I'm trying to replicate the code from this tutorial: http://docs.oracle.com/javase/8/javafx/get-started-tutorial/hello_world.htm
Eclipse shows me "The type javafx.scene.control.Control cannot be resolved. It is indirectly referenced from required .class files" when trying to use javafx.scene.control.Button.setText(String).
A similar problem occurs when trying to create a StackPane object.
Here's the code so far:
package javaFX;
import javafx.application.Application;
import javafx.event.ActionEvent;
import javafx.event.EventHandler;
import javafx.scene.control.Button;
import javafx.stage.Stage;
public class HelloWorld extends Application {
@Override
public void start(Stage primaryStage) throws Exception {
Button btn = new Button();
btn.setText("Hello world!");
btn.setOnAction(new EventHandler<ActionEvent>(){
@Override
public void handle(ActionEvent arg0) {
System.out.println("Hello world!");
}
});
StackPane root = new StackPane();
}
}
Tl;dr: Some JavaFX classes seem to be missing in Java SE 8u25 or I made a mistake in including the jre in the build path.
