How do I import the javafx correctly into eclipse? ("The import cannot be resolved")
(1 answer)
Closed 1 year ago.
I installed JavaFX 11 in Eclipse using a custom User Library with JavaFX in it, but now I would like to be able to see the documentation in the tooltip windows in Eclipse. Currently it is showing me this:
How do I implement this correctly?
This problem occurs quite often. But there is a simple solution; add the preferences (Add the JRE in your JDK similar like that).
For more information please see here: Solution JRE
After adding the javadoc source to library it should work (hopefully).

WindowBuilder Design Tab incomplete in Eclipse
(3 answers)
Closed 1 year ago.
I had some problems yesterday with Eclipse, so I uninstalled then installed it again, I installed the latest JVM version, and I imported one of my old projects to eclipse, I added the windowBuilder from the eclipse market, but when I click on the design Tab, it doesn't show anything in it, even thought the source code exist, and the GUI works normally when I run the program, but in the design window I cant see anything, any ideas on how to fix it?
Thanks in advance.

What is the easiest way to design Java Swing GUIs in Eclipse IDE?
(2 answers)
Closed 8 years ago.
I used Netbeans a lot but recently switched to Eclipse Luna. I am trying to create a GUI app in Java but I am having some trouble with this.
The drag and drop of Swing is very restrictive in Eclipse, I can get the label or text field any where on the screen I want, it keeps snapping to these weird "grid lines", or am I doing something wrong?
Are there extra plugins I need or am I doing something wrong?
Fixed the problem. I had to change the type of layout my form uses.
Thanks for your help.

How can I write a Java application that can update itself at runtime?
(9 answers)
Closed 9 years ago.
I'm developing a software which I will patch early & often, so I'm looking into an autoupdater made in Java.
If I google "auto updater java" it gives me the auto updater for Java, not software in general.
EDIT: Java Web Start and JNLP are not viable options since they're buggy and not reliable at all (or such is the general opinion).
Use Java Web Start. It will automatically update your application, when you have an updated version. If properly configured. JNLP works well.
Check out the JnlpDownloadServlet Guide.
Also Check out Andrew Thompson's site.
With jnlp, you can
Add a custom icon.
Install a shortcut on desktop.
Add application in the start menu.
Add a custom splash screen.

Where can I find the source files of eclipse icons? [closed]
(4 answers)
Closed 1 year ago.
I'm looking for a way to be able to find the icons used by the Eclipse Java Debugger (in particular like the icons that are used in the variable debugging view). Does any one know where the icons are located in the eclipse folders, or whether there is some kind of easy way eclipse has provided a developer to allow them easy access to those icons (for example I can easily import ISharedImages for those particular icons)?
Here's an online resource:

Have googled for months and hanvt found any good.
Please help!
The biggest contribution to Eclipse GUI builders was made by Google. Check out Window Builder - really awesome tool!
There is the WindowBuilder Pro from Google, that can be installed as Eclipse plugin. There is also the JGoodies JFormDesigner, but I'm not sure whether it can be used as a plugin.
