Re: [MJLINK] Create JavaFX application runtime

I'm missing a project to reproduce the issue, but I would expect that adding <scope>provided</scope> on those dependencies would fix it.

Hi,

I tried to create runtime images for JavaFX applications using maven-jlink-plugin. The jlink:jlink goal fails as some JavaFX dependencies are "Automatic Modules". More information on this can be found here: https://github.com/abhinayagarwal/maven-jlink-plugin-javafx/blob/master/README.md

maven-jlink-plugin extracts all the modules from the module-path and adds them to the `--add-modules` list. The existing JavaFX Maven plugin adds only the base module to the `--add-modules` list overcoming this issue.

It would be great if the plugin can be extended to create runtimes for JavaFX applications.

Best regards,
Abhinay

Glad it helped!

I was thinking maybe this should be filed as an issue at the javafx mailing
list.

Hi Robert,

The issue can be reproduced using theJavaFX application hosted on Github 
<https://github.com/abhinayagarwal/maven-jlink-plugin-javafx/>. It uses 
the maven-jlink-plugin to create a native image and fails.

Ben's example hosted at https://github.com/alttpj/MemeforceHunt does 
work and I was able to successfully apply the same logic to my 
application. It needs the user to exclude the transitive dependency and 
provide a platform classifier to make it work, which IMO isn't very idle 
:). The working `pom.xml` is available here: 
https://github.com/abhinayagarwal/maven-jlink-plugin-javafx/blob/working/pom.xml
