I am trying to implement this example in Java FX 11 with eclipse.

I have 4 files, FXMLTableView.java hast the start and main method, FXMLTableViewController.java(which is just empty with class declaration only, fxml_tableview.fxml has the fxml code. Person.java has the Person class as shown in the above link. I am getting error which when I remove this code (I am using only one line for testing) from fxml the program runs but ofcourse there is no data in the column: 

<Person firstName="Jacob" lastName="Smith"email="jacob.smith@example.com"/>

Any suggestions how to solve this problem?

Below is the error code:

  • That example works fine for me with JavaFX 11. Edit your question and post the full stacktrace. – José Pereda May 03 '19 at 12:59
  • I added the error, what do you mean by stack trace? – Ali May 03 '19 at 13:06
  • This message `Person.person is not a valid property` in your "[stacktrace](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/3988788/what-is-a-stack-trace-and-how-can-i-use-it-to-debug-my-application-errors)" indicates that your project doesn't find `Person` in the `fxmltableview` package. – José Pereda May 03 '19 at 13:07
  • Also it shows you are using a new package name: `table.view`, which is okay, of course, but you will need to do some refactoring as well in the FXML file. – José Pereda May 03 '19 at 13:10
  • I made a change Person.person to person, so the error code also changed. Also I included the fxml code. – Ali May 03 '19 at 13:22
  • What is this import ` `? The original code was at the package `fxmltableview`, but yours is `table.view`, just use the correct import. – José Pereda May 03 '19 at 13:40
  • don't have much idea, I copied a bunch of imports from here and there to get the code running, initially i wasn't getting any output, I changed it to import javafx.table.view.*?> now, but still getting the error. – Ali May 03 '19 at 13:46
  • I copied the whole code again now it's working, i think it's cause i didnt' include FormattedTableCellFactory.java the first time when I run the program.@Jose thank you for your support. specially the bit about fxmltableview I didn't notice that at all. – Ali May 03 '19 at 14:09
  • Still that is wrong, the import should include your package name, with your classes, not one that doesn’t exist. – José Pereda May 03 '19 at 14:11
  • sorry , I got that, thanks. – Ali May 03 '19 at 14:13
