"gradlew run" fails due to MouseHandler hack

[Clashsoft]

Describe the bug When launching an app using gradlew run, it fails with a cryptic message Exception in Application start method. Changing the catch (Exception e) in App.start to Throwable reveals this:

To Reproduce Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. gradlew run any app.

Expected behavior No exception.

Additional context The error is a ExceptionInInitializerError because the code fails in the static { } block of the ReflectionUtil class. Thus the catch (Exception e) does not work.

[LeStegii]

This can be fixed by adding the following snippet, which grants unnamed modules access to the javafx module, to the build.gradle of the application:

run {
    jvmArgs = jvmArgs + ['--add-opens=javafx.graphics/javafx.scene=ALL-UNNAMED']
}
