Don't have javafx.application.Application package in java

Question

I am trying to write java class which extends Application. But, it is not appearing when I search for javafx.application.Application. Could not fix this error even after updating JDK.
Can somebody guide me to fix this?

Assuming you are using Java 8, this may be a duplicate of http://stackoverflow.com/questions/22812488/using-javafx-in-jre-8/32062263#32062263. You probably need to provide more details about your setup. — James_D, Jan 23 '16 at 01:29
Also make sure your Eclipse project is actually using the JDK you recently installed. — James_D, Jan 23 '16 at 02:04

If you are on Windows, and you have Java 8, and it still does not work, you can just add the jar file to the project.

In your JDK folder, under /jre/lib, there is a jar called jfxrt.jar.
So, on Windows, the full path is (something like):
C:\Program Files\Java\jdk...\jre\lib\jfxrt.jar

Though if all your "ifs" are true, there is no reason you would need to do that. – James_D Jan 23 '16 at 02:03
