Problems running a javafx application, Netbeans 11, java 12, javafx 13

Question

Trying to run a simple hello world example but getting the following error, which I do not understand:

Graphics Device initialization failed for :  d3d, sw
Error initializing QuantumRenderer: no suitable pipeline found
java.lang.RuntimeException: java.lang.RuntimeException: Error initializing QuantumRenderer: no suitable pipeline found

How to solve it? Do I need some libs, plugins, configs which are not yet included?

Here is my pom: Tried using Java 9,10,11,12 and JavaFX 12 & 13 and get the same error.

have seen that error when the (native?) rendering libs in graphics were not available - for me that could happen when locally compiling jfx and trying to use it from a different project in eclipse: then I needed to point the java.library.path to the directory of those dlls. Don't know anything about how/why/if maven doesn't find them in your context, though. — kleopatra

That is a bug in the dependency eu.hansolo:Medusa:11.2, as it depends on mac version of JavaFX and hence the modulepath will contain both win and mac versions of JavaFX:

<dependency>
  <groupId>org.openjfx</groupId>
  <artifactId>javafx-controls</artifactId>
  <version>12.0.1</version>
  <classifier>mac</classifier> <---------------
  <scope>runtime</scope>
</dependency>
<dependency>
  <groupId>org.openjfx</groupId>
  <artifactId>javafx-base</artifactId>
  <version>12.0.1</version>
  <classifier>mac</classifier>  <---------------
  <scope>runtime</scope>
</dependency>
<dependency>
  <groupId>org.openjfx</groupId>
  <artifactId>javafx-graphics</artifactId>
  <version>12.0.1</version>
  <classifier>mac</classifier>  <---------------
  <scope>runtime</scope>
</dependency>

That was fixed in version 11.3:

Updated some libraries and removed the org.openjfx classifier

The solution:

Just update eu.hansolo:Medusa:11.2 to eu.hansolo:Medusa:11.3 and it should work.

I probably wouldn't have found out alone that the problem is the dependency. Thanks a lot.

@wannaBeDev I am glad that I could help. The bounty would be much helpful reaching 100K ;)

I didn't know I had to confirm it which I just did. I'm keeping my fingers crossed that you'll break 100k soon.
