Non-modular projects are Java Apps prior to Java 9 where JavaFX applications only use the Java class path as opposed to the new module path. I am purposefully avoiding the non-modular JavaFX application project convention (in favor of the modular JPMS convention).
*Warning: You should notice in figure 2 on the left is the option for JavaFX, where it is NOT selected. Select Java as the type of project to be created in the New Project as shown in figure 2. *Note: If you've already completed the tutorial " A JavaFX App on ZuluFX in 60 Seconds" then you could select the option ' Open or Import' and select the project directory and jump all the way down to step 15 executing the Hello World FX application. In Figure 1 below are three options allowing you to create a Java project. Usually this type of project is good for quick prototypes.Īfter installing and launching IntelliJ click on the ' New Project' option.

The following steps will show you how to create a new JavaFX project from scratch (aka Plain old JavaFX Project).
#Intellij change java version install#
To see how to install ZuluFX please refer to the section ' Installing ZuluFX' at " A JavaFX App on ZuluFX in 60 Seconds".

When downloading IntelliJ the free version is called the community edition. The following are requirements for this tutorial.

Next, you'll need to download and install the required software.
New comers to the JavaFX platform that want things even more basic (fundamental) such as using the command line or terminal should look at " A JavaFX App on ZuluFX in 60 Seconds". For a deep dive into modules check out Understanding Java 9 Modules by Paul Deitel. To learn more about Java Platform Module System's naming convention check out Java SE 9 - JPMS module naming by Stephen Colebourne. This is in regards to the naming of a module directory and Java package namespace in the initial creation of the project. There are redundant naming of directories that may look peculiar to you. Warning: This tutorial will touch the basics on how to create a JavaFX project using the new Java Platform Module System (JPMS) since Java 9. While this article may seem elementary for some, I believe it can help newcomers to the JavaFX platform avoid some pitfalls and really hit the ground running.
Reset back to the default runtime when updating IntelliJ IDEA to get the latest compatible version of JetBrains Runtime.
#Intellij change java version update#
When using a non-default Java runtime for IntelliJ IDEA, it will not update with the IDE and may not be compatible with the new version. Do not change it unless you were specifically asked to do so by JetBrains support. However, in some cases you may be required to use another Java runtime or a specific version of JetBrains Runtime.Ĭhanging the runtime may cause unexpected problems. It is recommended to run IntelliJ IDEA using JetBrains Runtime, which fixes various known OpenJDK and Oracle JDK bugs, and provides better performance and stability. As a Java application, IntelliJ IDEA includes JetBrains Runtime (based on OpenJDK 11), which is used by default.
