Reinstall VMWARE, even try another version or solution. We're getting closer to locate the problem

Hello Erel,

I saw a lot of sites with some incompatible between Java and VMWARE.

I don't know if this is true, i'm investigating about that.

The jar file is attached! In 3 real mac works.... but in this vmware, not!

When you say VMWare what are you referring to? ESXi, Fusion or Workstation Pro?

First thing is you are not running the latest build of Workstation Pro so I would update it as a first step.

Do you have any virtual MACOSX running on your VMWARE?

I ask because I don't think is with version, I saw a lot of discutions about this acceleration 3D for MAC OS, and everyone says is not compatible.

And this new update now tell nothing related about this.

If you have installed, can you try running this little jar?

@Alberto Iglesias I think you should let go of the VMWARE and use B4J without it. Compile your work then just run it on a REAL Mac. That will solve everything.

Thats too easy.... but I dont think so.... First I need to understand how is the root of problem. Second, I have this virtual machine just for automation porpouses and I need to use that one.

Don't worry, I will find the way!


thanks

Definitely is something with java/javafx.. Apps created with XCODE, work properly, with B4J no (observed for now just in this virtual machine)

I tried to install SCENE BUILDER (http://gluonhq.com/products/scene-builder) and the behavior is the same, show the screen, but no components

Point to note here is "VMware is not a certified hypervisor." So it not working is not really a Java issue as Oracle don't certify that it will work.
