Custom FXLauncher Update UI
This example project shows you how you can customize the look and feel of the FXLauncher user interface.
It is recommended that you create a separate project for the custom UI to make it
easier to embed it into the fxlauncher.jar
. Basically you implement UIProvider
and add the META-INF/services/fxlauncher.UIProvider
file, pointing to your implementation. See the
documentation of UIProvider
on the previous link.
To embed custom UI, include a step in your app project where you basically
embed all the class files from the ui project into the fxlauncher.jar
:
<build>
<plugins>
<plugin>
<groupId>org.codehaus.mojo</groupId>
<artifactId>exec-maven-plugin</artifactId>
<version>1.4.0</version>
<executions>
<!-- Here you already have executions for
"create-manifest" and "embed-manifest-in-launcher" -->
<execution>
<id>embed-custom-ui-in-launcher</id>
<phase>package</phase>
