JavaFX: Could not execute Jar build from artifact, while we could execute from IntelliJ IDEA

 in Java  tagged -Dprism.verbose=true / intellij / java / javafx / LD_LIBRARY_PATH by

One of the applications we recently build on IntelliJ IDEA was using JavaFX.

When executing the application from inside IntelliJ, it would work as expected and load the GUI.
On the other hand, when executing the jar file from the terminal, we would get the following error:

$ java -jar hello.jar

As the above information was not very helpful, we executed the jar again using the -Dprism.verbose=true directive to get more information from the error.

From the new log, we could see that the application was trying to load some .so (libprism_es2.so and libprism_sw.so) files that were not available in LD_LIBRARY_PATH.
We used find, to locate them:


find / -name "libprism_es2.so" 2>/dev/null;

Then we updated the LD_LIBRARY_PATH variable to include the new path


export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$LD_LIBRARY_PATH:/opt/idea-IC/jre64/lib/amd64/;

java -jar hello.jar;

Note: Here we used the copies that were available in our IntelliJ IDEA installation.
It is not recommended as you need to deploy them per machine, but in our case it was OK as the development machine was the actual machine to use the tool as well.

Creating Jar with Intellij IDEA 2017.3 – no main manifest attribute, in .jar 1

 in Java  tagged intellij / jar / java / manifest by

Recently we tried to create a Jar file from IntelliJ IDEA 2017.3 using Maven.

After building the artifact, we got the error no main manifest attribute, in $FILE.jar while executing the jar file created by IntelliJ.
After extracting the jar we observed that there was a manifest file but not the one that was specified while creating the artifact.

After some serious google-fu, we got to the following bug ticket.
Apparently, IntelliJ does not read the manifest file that is located in the src/main/java folder!
Working Solution: As suggested in the ticket, we moved the META-INF folder to src/main/resources and rebuild the artifact.

 

Fedora install JDK (OpenJDK) 2

 in Java  tagged Android Studio / idea / intellij / java / jdk / openjdk by

As we were setting up a machine that would be used for software development, we came to the need of installing a Java Development Kit (JDK).
There are two popular choices on the web between the OpenJDK and the Oracle JDK, we decided to go with the OpenJDK option which is a free and open source implementation of the Java Platform and it is part of the official Fedora repositories.

To install the OpenJDK along with all the needed libraries for development we used the following command:


sudo dnf install java-1.8.0-openjdk java-1.8.0-openjdk-devel;

On our GNU/Linux Fedora the installation folder of the JDK was /usr/lib/jvm/java-1.8.0-openjdk.

 

Remove all non digit characters from String

 in Java  tagged digit / filter / java / numbers / numeric / pattern / regex / regular expression / replaceAll / string by

The following Java snippet removes all non-digit characters from a String.
Non-digit characters are any characters that are not in the following set [0, 1, 2, 3, 4 ,5 ,6 ,7 ,8, 9].


myString.replaceAll("\\D", "");

For a summary of regular-expression constructs and information on the character classes supported by Java pattern visit the following link.

The \\D pattern that we used in our code is a predefined character class for non-digit characters. It is equivalent to [^0-9]that negates the predefined character class for digit characters [0-9].
