I have downloaded "formsbuilder.jar"
I double click on its icon but nothing happens.
I see in Properties that opens with "Open JDK Platform binary"
But it doesn't open it.
Can you help me?

Double clicking on the jar will only work if Java 8 is installed as the default Java.
The simplest solution is to run the source code from B4J (second post).

It has happened, I think, since I installed Eclipse Java 2019-06 on my computer. Can I return to the previous state?
Ignorance is very daring!
Greetings.

Resolved!! I have downloaded B4J.
Thank you.

The current version is Java 11. I don't want to install an old version of Java. How do I tell FormBuilder to compile with Java 11. My configure paths is set to: C:\Java\OpenJDK-11\bin\javac.exe

I've removed the executable jar. Download the project and run it from B4J.
