How do I solve Nashorn removal and JS replacement in Netbeans 22?

Despite having followed every procedure exactly as specified to install an alternative to Nashorn in Netbeans 22, I still get the following error when trying to build a FXML project:

Java 15 has removed Nashorn, you must provide an engine for running JavaScript yourself.

GraalVM JavaScript is the js that I am trying to integrate. Following the Oracle graalvm page I downloaded and extracted the following:

https://download.oracle.com/graalvm/22/latest/graalvm-jdk-22_windows-x64_bin.zip

Extracted the download to the directory C:Program Files/Java/graalvm-jdk-22.0.1+8.1 and renamed the folder graalvm-22

In an admin cmd shell, set JAVA_HOME environment variable with:

setx /M JAVA_HOME "C:\Progra~1\Java\graalvm-22"

and set the path with:

setx /M PATH "C:\Progra~1\Java\<graalvm>\bin;%PATH%"

Checked these variables with echo, which showed:

echo %JAVA_HOME%
C:\Progra~1\Java\graalvm-22

echo %PATH%
C:\Progra~1\Java\graalvm-22\bin;
C:\Program Files\CommonFiles\Oracle\Java\javapath;
C:\WINDOWS\system32;
C:\WINDOWS;
C:\WINDOWS\System32\Wbem;
C:\WINDOWS\System32\WindowsPowerShell\v1.0\;
C:\WINDOWS\System32\OpenSSH\;
C:\Program Files\HP\HP One Agent;C:\Users\qabpa\AppData\Local\Microsoft\WindowsApps;

I have been stuck for a few days with this issue and would appreciate help. Thanks.

This is just an example of Java + JavaFX + nashorn Script Engine.

If you want to integrate GraalVM JavaScript, it should be another answer. ( https://github.com/graalvm/polyglot-embedding-demo ) only GraalVM , not include JavaFX.

Remove or Uninstall All

  • Remove or uninstall JDK , JavaFX, Netbeans...
  • Remove Environment Variable JAVA_HOME

Install zulu JDK include JavaFX

https://www.azul.com/downloads/?version=java-21-lts&os=windows&architecture=x86-64-bit&package=jdk-fx#zulu

Download -> .msi

JDK_000.png

zulu21.34.19-ca-fx-jdk21.0.3-win_x64.msi

click zulu21.34.19-ca-fx-jdk21.0.3-win_x64.msi

Drop down Set JAVA_HOME variable , Select Entire feature will be installed on local hard drive

JDK_001.png

Click Next

JDK_002.png

Please note that you do not need to set the JAVA_HOME or PATH environment variables yourself.

Because the installation program has been automatically configured.

Check JDK install

Open CMD , input command javac -version

javac 21.0.3

input another command : java -version

openjdk version "21.0.3" 2024-04-16 LTS
OpenJDK Runtime Environment Zulu21.34+19-CA (build 21.0.3+9-LTS)
OpenJDK 64-Bit Server VM Zulu21.34+19-CA (build 21.0.3+9-LTS, mixed mode, sharing)

Install Netbeans 22

Note, please use exe to install and not zip.

click Apache-NetBeans-22-bin-windows-x64.exe

Netbeans_001.png

NetBeans will detected Zulu-21

click Next

Netbeans_002.png

Click Install

Config JavaFX

Menu Tools -> Options

  • Peoject Name: hello1fx
  • Group Id: com.exmaple

Click Finish
