I have not been able to successfully find a working solution on how to configure Maven to build an EXE from JavaFX with Maven.
Projects set up with E(fx)clipse using the
the plugin is NOT dead, just the official website was taken down due to the costs it produced.
Just look at the git-repository for further details: https://github.com/javafx-maven-plugin/javafx-maven-plugin
We have some sample configurations within our testing-folder: https://github.com/javafx-maven-plugin/javafx-maven-plugin/tree/master/src/it
To just build the EXE-installer, you can specify an specific bundler (from version 8.1.3 and up).
To use the plugin, just put this into your build-plugins:
com.zenjava
javafx-maven-plugin
8.1.3-SNAPSHOT
com.your.amazing.mavenized.javafxapplication
EXE
disclaimer: i'm one of the maintainer of that plugin ;)
