I've downloaded OpenJDK 8 today via sudo apt-get install openjdk-8-jdk and it seems like JavaFX is not included in it.
> java -version openjdk version "1.8.0_66-internal" OpenJDK Runtime Environment (build 1.8.0_66-internal-b17) OpenJDK Server VM (build 25.66-b17, mixed mode) I've installed E(fx)clipse in latest Eclipse (Eclipse Mars) too, but I'm still getting message javafx couldn't be resolved.
According to the packages list in Ubuntu Wily Xenial there is a package named openjfx. This should be a candidate for what you're looking for:
JavaFX/OpenJFX 8 - Rich client application platform for Java
You can install it via:
sudo apt-get install openjfx It provides the following JAR files to the OpenJDK installation on Ubuntu systems:
/usr/lib/jvm/java-8-openjdk-amd64/jre/lib/ext/jfxrt.jar /usr/lib/jvm/java-8-openjdk-amd64/jre/lib/jfxswt.jar /usr/lib/jvm/java-8-openjdk-amd64/lib/ant-javafx.jar /usr/lib/jvm/java-8-openjdk-amd64/lib/javafx-mx.jar If you want to have sources available, for example for debugging, you can additionally install:
sudo apt-get install openjfx-source I use ubuntu 16.04 and because I already had openJDK installed, this command have solved the problem. Don't forget that JavaFX is part of OpenJDK.
sudo apt-get install openjfx
