How can I add a JavaFX 2.0 class to an existing Maven project?

Question

I have a Maven project that just displays a graph on the xy axis. I want to change that graph to a Javafx 2.0 linechart to display the same data. I tried using the FEST-javafx-m

Using JDK 1.7 you have to perform the following mvn goal.

  mvn com.zenjava:javafx-maven-plugin:2.0:fix-classpath   

This command will change the classpath of your JRE and copy the jfxrt.jar to the JAVA_HOME\lib\ext directory.

Take an additional look here for further information: JavaFX Maven Plugin

Within your pom-file you have to add the following dependency configuration.

     
        javafx
        jfxrt
        2.2
        
        system
        ${java.home}/lib/ext/jfxrt.jar
