Java FX path for .fxml files doesn´t work when exporting to JAR

Question

I have a JavaFX project which runs this way:

    FXMLLoader loader = new FXMLLoader(getClass().getResource("Login.fxml"));
    

My folder scheme is like this:

It works great in Eclipse but when I export it into a Runnable JAR and execute it from the console, it does:

I put in the jar folder my Login.fxml different ways:

• In the same folder
• In a folder called resources
• Inside application inside resources

But none of this is working. Where I am supposed to place my Login.fxml file?

I would appreciate some help here. Thank you.

Answer 1

I noticed that non-java files have landed within src directory inside the jar, so I simply added src/ before fxml file path. Not the best solution but it allows to generate working runnable jar file.

Answer 2

I got it:

My Login.fxml class was inside the application package. So i created a application folder inside the folder in wich the jar file is:

And inside application folder I peasted the Login.fxml file.

I also created res and src for other resources.
