Project can't be used when the jar is signed (original javafx package)

[xjensh]

We sign all of our jars and all of our dependencies with our companies certificate. Running a signed JavaFX application that was packaged as a native bundle using the official FX package tools we'll get this exception:

java.lang.SecurityException: class "javafx.scene.control.Dialogs"'s signer information does not match signer information of other classes in the same package
at java.lang.ClassLoader.checkCerts(ClassLoader.java:943)
at java.lang.ClassLoader.preDefineClass(ClassLoader.java:657)
at java.lang.ClassLoader.defineClass(ClassLoader.java:785)

This is because of the same package name as the original FX source.

Do you have any plans to modify the package name to prevent this issue?

In that case you could take the source and just refactor the packages. You will need to make some path adjustments in the Dialogs class.

I don't plan to put too much work in improving the dialogs, because they should be included in the JavaFX 8 release that is due this year. So I'd recommend you make a temporary solution for the next few months and then remove the library once JavaFX 8 has been released.

Yep, that's what I've done while waiting for your answer ;)

Understandably attitude! Thanks for the answer and the port to Java FX 2.x - helped us a lot!
