JavaFX 和 maven - 应用程序启动方法中的异常（InvocationTargetException + RuntimeException + IllegalAccessError）

Question

I am beginning learning with JavaFX but I am having issues to set up properly the project. I have been following a tutorial in order to learn how JavaFX works but when I run the project I get errors I do not know how to solve.

I have been looking for people getting the same error and I found one in stackoverflow but I have the feeling that does not correspond to my issue.

Please, may you help me?

Thank you in advance

package com.mathieuascain.javafxtutorial;
import javafx.application.Application;
import javafx.event.ActionEvent;
import javafx.event.EventHandler;
import javafx.scene.Scene;
import javafx.scene.control.Button;
import javafx.scene.layout.StackPane;
import javafx.stage.Stage;

public class Main extends Application {

    Button button;

    public static void main(String[] args) {
        launch(args);
    }

    @Override
    public void start(Stage primaryStage) throws Exception {
        primaryStage.setTitle("My first JavaFX GUI");

        button = new Button();
        button.setText("Click me");

        StackPane layout = new StackPane();
        layout.getChildren().add(button);

        Scene scene = new Scene(layout, 300, 250);
        primaryStage.setScene(scene);
        primaryStage.show();
    }
}

You could try adding ALL JavaFX Components like: (replace version 15 with 16)
