Incompatibilities between JFoenix 9.0.8 and OpenJFX 12 / OpenJDK 12 (JFXDatePicker, JFXTimePicker)

[andre-schneider-fraunhofer]

I found two incompatibilities between JFoenix 9.0.8 and OpenJFX 12. I have trouble at least with two classes: JFXDatePicker and JFXTimePicker. Both classes use ReflectionHelper in order to access ?private? members of the super classes DatePicker and TimePicker from the javafx.scene.controls package.

I guess there are a few changes in OpenJDK 12 as well as OpenJFX 12 and now the JFoenix implementation has to be adapted.

Problem #1: JFXDatePicker line 84, NullPointerException while accessing the private "editor" field from the parent class.

Problem #2: JFXTimePicker ... see exception below ...

Exception in thread "JavaFX Application Thread" java.lang.InternalError: java.lang.IllegalAccessException: class com.jfoenix.adapters.ReflectionHelper cannot access a member of class javafx.scene.control.skin.ComboBoxPopupControl (in module javafx.controls) with modifiers ""

Are there any ideas how I can solve the problems or are there any work-arounds?

Thanks, André

[tobiasdiez]

This issue is still present, I think.

[1-alex98]

Still exists

[littleboyonearth]

the same for java 15

[Rozumek29]

same for JFXTimePicker and java 15

Workaround tested on Java 15

From build.gradle:

def args = [
    "--add-exports=javafx.graphics/com.sun.javafx.scene=ALL-UNNAMED",
    "--add-exports=javafx.controls/com.sun.javafx.scene.control.behavior" +
        "=ALL-UNNAMED",

    "--add-exports=javafx.base/com.sun.javafx.event=com.jfoenix"

application {
  mainClass = (main class)
  applicationDefaultJvmArgs = args
}

I believe someone on my team found those arguments on StackOverflow.
