B4J Question B4J on Raspberry Pi With Java 11

[Jon Eskdale]

Hi - Trying to get this working as per Erel's Tutorial post.
Must be missing something - suggestions would be very welcome
Looking at the Java 11 download it says it includes JavaFX
When I start the bridge I get the messages as per the tutorial except after
JavaFX modules: (I don't get any listed.)

Just JavaFX module:
Connected!

sudo ./jdk-11/bin/java -jar b4j-bridge.jar
B4J-Bridge v1.43
Running on Java 11+
External JavaFX not found. Searching for internal modules...
Waiting for connections (port=6790)...
My IP address is 192.168.1.139
FTP Server started: ftp://192.168.1.139:6781
Start B4J-Bridge with -disableftp to disable.
JavaFX modules:
Connected!

The log if I try to run a program shows
Error: --add-modules= requires modules to be specified

Using bellsoft-jdk11+28-linux-arm32-vfp-hflt.tar
Pi 3B+ with latest updated OS

Thanks
Jon

Try to download the lite version: https://github.com/bell-sw/Liberica...ft-jdk11.0.1-linux-arm32-vfp-hflt-lite.tar.gz
If not working, try this version:
https://github.com/bell-sw/Liberica...llsoft-jdk11-linux-arm32-vfp-hflt-lite.tar.gz

Program started.

First time I ran it Raspi screen went blank
and had to close it.

Second time I set breakpoints
And it hits a breakpoint on Sub AppStart
And I can step through AppStart and the New Sub
then let it run and got

There is a pop up onscreen keyboard which appears and covers half the screen but the Bluetooth keyboard that was connected and working prior to running the app, no longer works.

Will Experiment more - are the warnings anything to be concerned about?

Thanks Jon
