| <h1 align="">Swing Interop Sample Description</h1> |
| <p> |
| |
| This project demonstrates the use of JavaFX 2.0 components in a Swing based application. </p> |
| |
| <br> |
| |
| <h2>JavaFX2-in-Swing in NetBeans 7.1</h2> |
| <p>Building the sample SwingInterop produces in project <code>dist/</code> subdirectory |
| a JAR file, a HTML file and two JNLP files - one to enable standalone |
| application launch, the other to enable launch as applet within the HTML page. |
| Note that the application is not a JavaFX 2.0 application and |
| the built files do not follow the JavaFX 2.0 deployment |
| model as described at <a href="http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javafx">JavaFX website</a>. The JNLP files |
| are pre-FX WebStart files, extended only by the reference to the |
| required JavaFX 2.0+ runtime, which must be present in the system |
| in order to run the application. The application itself launches |
| either as standard Swing application or as (pre-FX) applet. |
| To run the sample outside of NetBeans IDE do one of the following:</p> |
| <ul> |
| <li>java -jar SwingInterop.jar</li> |
| <li>double-click SwingInterop_application.jnlp</li> |
| <li>open SwingInterop.html in a browser with installed JavaFX plug-in</li> |
| </ul> |
| |
| <h2>Creating JavaFX2-in-Swing projects</h2> |
| <p>NetBeans 7.1 supports either pure Java2SE (Swing) projects or pure |
| JavaFX 2.0+ projects, but does not provide specific support for |
| JavaFX2-in-Swing projects. Such support will be included in NetBeans 7.2. |
| Before NetBeans 7.2 is available, the following workarounds can be followed:</p> |
| <ol> |
| <li>Use SwingInterop sample as starting point and modify its contents |
| as required. Note that the <code>main.class</code> property must be updated |
| manually in <code>nbproject/project.properties</code> to point to the main class of |
| your modified project.</li> |
| <li>To start from scratch, create a new JavaFX Preloader project (in menu |
| File->New Project->JavaFX->JavaFX Preloader). Replace <code>build.xml</code> by |
| <code>build.xml</code> taken from the SwingInterop sample (and preferably edit |
| <project> name in it). Copy the whole <code>web/</code> subdirectory from |
| SwingInterop sample to the new project. In <code>nbproject/project.properties</code> |
| add manually the property <code>main.class</code> and set it to the true |
| main class name when your java sources are ready.</li> |
| </ol> |
| <p> |
| Use Run to run the application within the IDE.<br> |
| Use Clean and Build to obtain the deployment files as described above.</p> |
