Maybe a late answer, but, it is possible to have javafx 11 maven project + NetBeans 9.
- Maven doesn't like extending Application in a main clas. You should use two classes:
Main.java:
public class Main {
public static void main(String[] args) {
MainApp.main(args);
}
}
MainApp.java:
import javafx.application.Application;
import javafx.event.ActionEvent;
import javafx.event.EventHandler;
import javafx.scene.Scene;
import javafx.scene.control.Button;
import javafx.scene.layout.StackPane;
import javafx.stage.Stage;
public class MainApp extends Application {
public static void main(String[] args) {
launch(args);
}
@Override
public void start(Stage primaryStage) {
primaryStage.setTitle("Hello World!");
String a;
a = new String("test");
Button btn = new Button();
btn.setText("Say 'Hello World'");
btn.setOnAction(new EventHandler<ActionEvent>() {
@Override
public void handle(ActionEvent event) {
System.out.println("Hello World!");
}
});
StackPane root = new StackPane();
root.getChildren().add(btn);
primaryStage.setScene(new Scene(root, 300, 250));
primaryStage.show();
}
}
Your pom.xml should look like this:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

This will work in netbeans without any issues.
Basically, what you need to do is start new maven project and after you finish setting project just replace pom.xml.
This way your code will run from IDE, and will compile correctly so that you can run it from command line with java --jar. Also, you will be able to run NB debugger.
