Description

From @jiayaoO3O on December 7, 2018 11:23

I can use maven to run javaFx11, but every time I run the program I type in the powershell: mvn exec:java, which makes me wonder how to use the breakpoint to debug the program. If I try to click the debug button directly, vscode Will tell me: Error: JavaFX runtime components are missing, and are required to run this application, how can I do this to run and debug the javaFx11 application directly?
Here is the javafx11 plugin I added for maven's pom.xml:

Research direction

Start with the JavaFX 11 dependency configuration shown for pom.xml and compare it with the direct VS Code debug-button path that reports missing runtime components. Review how mvn exec:java launches the application; done would mean a JavaFX 11 application can be launched and debugged directly with breakpoints from VS Code.
