On Netbeans every time I choose a new JavaFx Application project it will ask me to "add a platform" unless I add the Oracle Java JDK I will be stuck there. Is there a way to use Openjdk to get around the problem?

What kind of research do you made so far and how about using openjfx? Or why did you left it out of your scope?thepacker– thepacker2015-01-25 20:31:20 +00:00Commented Jan 25, 2015 at 20:31

Just build a self-contained application/installer with the Oracle JDK and you are done. What's the problem?

Hummm... Either I'm missing something or I don't understand. :( You will need the JDK to program Java applications.As far as building Java GUI, Have you given JavaFX scene builder a shot? check it out here: Java FX scenbuilder. If I'm missing something please let me know. Seems like I am...

Ok so I developed a JavaFX application with Scenbuilder it's done. The thing is that I used the normal Oracle JDK. For Linux there is also Openjdk. My problem is that the jar file will only run under a Oracle JRE and not under a Openjdk jre.

And this is when you try to compile in Netbeans or after you've got it compiled and built with a complete jar file?

Basicly, it says that you can build an openJDK version which includes JavaFX (OpenJFX) following the instructions given here .
But there are no linux distribution that offer a JavaFX package, meaning, if you develop an application using JavaFX, the OpenJDK users won't be able to use it unless they've also built their OpenJDK themselves.
