I am trying to download JavaFX Scene Builder that I would want to use with Eclipse. I have installed the JavaFX plug -in for Eclipse Luna, now I want to download the JavaFX Scene Builder but I cannot locate it on this link. I have searched under Additional Resources as instructed here but could not see the link to download it.

Is the provided link valid? Where can I download JavaFx Scene Builder?

  • Depending on if you search a current version of the Scene Builder that should be the explanation: http://java.dzone.com/articles/bye-bye-javafx-scene-builder. You have to build it from source ! – Marged Jun 18 '15 at 07:19

    Here: http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/sb2download-2177776.html @Marged You do not have to build it from source. – Evan Knowles Jun 18 '15 at 07:20
  • @Marged I am not sure how to build it from source, is there a guideline to do so? – CN1002 Jun 18 '15 at 07:22
  • @EvanKnowlesIf I understand the linked site correctly (I know it is not officially from Oracle) starting with a certain version you will only get the sources. Because of that someone else decided to provide the binaries. – Marged Jun 18 '15 at 07:46
  • I got the latest version of scene builder from Gluon http://gluonhq.com/products/scene-builder/ – pwillemet Jun 18 '15 at 07:59

I had similar problems finding it from the Oracle website. A Google search with the search term "javafx scene builder download" helped. After I found it, I added the following direct link as a reference into our "How to set up my development environment" document:

http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/sb2download-2177776.html

And I always keep a copy of the download in our SVN ($/environment) in case the link breaks.
