[SOLVED] Problem with lwjgl3 in the new version of JME v3.6.0

Troubleshooting General Help

I just tried jme3 version 3.6.0 and I got an error when starting the app using lwjgl3, I thought it was the compatibility with my jdk. I tried Java 17-18 and the error persists.

With lwjgl if the application is executed.

...
ext.jmonkeyengineVersion = '3.6.0-stable'
...
runtimeOnly 'org.jmonkeyengine:jme3-lwjgl:' + jmonkeyengineVersion

Well, that isn’t lwjgl3, it’s lwjgl2. It sounds like you may have both lwjgl2 and lwjgl3 java packages in your runtime classpath, which will throw sealing errors if a package is sealed, (and would cause other, more subtle errors if the sealing system was not in place.)

Correction:

Sorry if I have caused any confusion, if I use lwjgl2 I am able to run the application. However, if I switch to lwjgl3, that’s where I get the exception.

If it works with:

...
ext.jmonkeyengineVersion = '3.6.0-stable'
...
runtimeOnly 'org.jmonkeyengine:jme3-lwjgl:' + jmonkeyengineVersion

it throws me error:

...
ext.jmonkeyengineVersion = '3.6.0-stable'
...
runtimeOnly 'org.jmonkeyengine:jme3-lwjgl3:' + jmonkeyengineVersion


I already located the origin of the problem, I don't know why but when I implement the library 
implementation 'com.github.Jeddic:particlemonkey:1.0.2'

With: LWJGL3

for some reason it doesn’t support the most recent version of the engine or said jar uses lwjgl2 to work, I really don’t know, it’s a shame not to be able to use it right now…

Thank you! :+1:

Pretty sure I published a more recent version that removed the lwjgl dependency from the examples.

Edit:
Yea, I have 1.1.0 up on maven. Try updating it.

implementation group: 'com.epagagames', name: 'particlemonkey', version: '1.1.0'
