Launch JavaFX Application Causes Exception #52

Open danPec13 opened 4 years ago

danPec13 commented 4 years ago

After starting the java 11 remote server at port 8270 java --module-path /opt/javafx-sdk-11.0.2/lib --add-modules javafx.controls,javafx.fxml,javafx.base,javafx.graphics,javafx.media,javafx.swing,javafx.web -Djdk.gtk.version=2 -jar /opt/robot_javafx_jars/javafxlibrary-0.6.0.jar

I attempt to run my robot file with my IP Address:

*** Settings ***
Library     Remote   http://ip_address:8270      WITH NAME  JavaFXLibrary

*** Test Cases ***
Test Text Field Text Should Be
    Launch JavaFX Application   org.ocui.login.LoginUI

and am getting the error FxRobot not initialized, launch test application with the library. My start and main method are in the LoginUI class and launches normally for java fx without any arguments. After tracing through the JavaFXLibrary code, I don't understand why there would be an exception thrown when creating the new session for launching the application. Just wondering if I am missing anything in the robot keyword.

Below is the log file:

Java 11 is not yet supported, we have #23 on the works.
