Eclipse4 application on OpenJFX 11

Starting with Java-11 JavaFX is not available anymore in any JavaSE-distribution (OpenJDK nor Oracle). For "Eclipse on JavaFX" applications this means you need to do some extra steps in your IDE and your exported application.

PDE

For PDE projects you need to do the following:

• Install at least e(fx)clipse 3.5.0 into your Eclipse IDE
• Download the OpenFX-SDK from https://openjfx.io/ and extract it
• Open the JavaFX-Preference Page and point it to the lib-Folder of the OpenJFX-SDK
• Restart Eclipse
• Create a new "e4 Application projects" using the wizard "New Project" wizard
• Edit the releng/pom.xml
  • Update tycho to at 1.3.0 (currently there's only a snapshot available)
  • Point the repo "efxclipse-repo" to http://download.eclipse.org/efxclipse/runtime-nightly/site
  • Add a 2nd repo pointing to http://downloads.efxclipse.bestsolution.at/p2-repos/openjfx-11/repository/
