B4J Question RichViewfx CodeArea release mode error.

[Alejandro Moyano]

Hi, i was trying to use the @stevel05 RichViewfx CodeArea control and can't make it work on release mode.

The behavior it's a quite strange as in release mode the app crashes showing this log:

But when i run as debug mode it's works:

I currently looking for a code editor for my DSL, any B4J idea?

 

[Erel]

Try this:

#VirtualMachineArgs: --add-opens javafx.graphics/javafx.scene.text=ALL-UNNAMED
#PackagerProperty: VMArgs = --add-opens javafx.graphics/javafx.scene.text=b4j

 

[LucaMs]

Try this:

#VirtualMachineArgs: --add-opens javafx.graphics/javafx.scene.text=ALL-UNNAMED
#PackagerProperty: VMArgs = --add-opens javafx.graphics/javafx.scene.text=b4j

?

I (we) need some explanation/tutorial/documentation about those things.

 

[Erel]

Lets first see that it works ?

 

[stevel05]

Experimentation and investigation shows that an export is required as well.

This works for me:

#VirtualMachineArgs: --add-opens javafx.graphics/javafx.scene.text=ALL-UNNAMED  --add-exports javafx.graphics/com.sun.javafx.text=ALL-UNNAMED
#PackagerProperty: VMArgs = --add-opens javafx.graphics/javafx.scene.text=b4j --add-exports javafx.graphics/com.sun.javafx.text=b4j

Note this is for java > 8 only, so I won't be adding it to the released library demo for now.

@LucaMs A brief explanation can be found at : https://docs.oracle.com/javase/9/migrate/toc.htm#JSMIG-GUID-7BB28E4D-99B3-4078-BDC4-FC24180CE82B

 

[Alejandro Moyano]

Thanks @stevel05, @Erel it's working now, i will try to add an sidebar.

It will replace this regular textarea:

do you know how easy could be add autocompletion? did u atempt it?

 

[stevel05]

No, I didn't try that. It's been a long time since I looked at it at all.
