B4J Question Enable to run b4J program

[lucdrb]

Hi,

I can't run my program with the Jar exe file.

In debug mode it's working fine, directly after the complilation in the release mode it's also running fine but when I try to run it with the jar file, I didn't have anything.

I've to kill the Java(TM) platform SE binary to rerun the program debug mode

I use B4J version 7

Should I forgot something?

Thanks for your Help
Luc

to run the jar standalone it should NOT compile in Debug but in Release.
Debug will only work if the app is started by the IDE.

 

[lucdrb]

I only said that everything is ok in debug mode and when I execute in release mode the program start well after the complilation.

When I close B4J and try to run the program with a double clic on the jar file (find in the program_name/object), nothing happend.

Is it a UI app or nonUI App?

 

[lucdrb]

It's a UI app
If it's can help I try to run it on a Mac and I got the same thing

Which JDK?

 

[aaronk]

run the jar file from a batch file and see what it logs.

Hello, same here, exactly the same problem. It says "Exception in thread "JavaFX Application Thread" Exception in thread "main" java.lang.UnsupportedClassVersionError: b4j/example/main has been compiled by a more recent version of the Java Runtime (class file version 53.0), this version of the Java Runtime only recognizes class file versions up to 52.0". JDK is OpenJDK 11 + OpenJFX 11 as said on the B4J Download page, JRE is most recent.

There is no JRE for java 11, the app has to run against the JDK java.exe.

If you run Java -version in a command prompt window, what does it return.

@lucdrb which version of Java are you using?

Java 11 no longer supports executable jars. You need to use B4JPackager11 to build an installer: https://www.b4x.com/android/forum/t...the-simplest-way-to-distribute-ui-apps.99835/

Here the result of java _version:
java version "1.8.0_201"
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.8.0_201-b09)
Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 25.201-b09, mixed mode)

and I'm using the JDK 11.0.1

I'll try the B4Jpackager11 and I got 2 errors, I'll open a new thread for it
Thanks
