I'm writting a GUI with 2 scenes, the first one being one to connect to the server (which has been written already and works great), and the second one, the game itself.
I've looked up tutorials, but I haven't seen one so far that could also load the FXML. I've tried doing it on my own, but I was unsuccessful. I've implemented 2 separate controllers, and 2 separate FXML's, but I'm not managing to implement all of the above in the Main.java, and cannot switch scenes either with a button, my code looks like this at the moment.
Main.java
public class Main extends Application {
Stage window;
Scene scene1, scene2;
@Override
public void start(Stage primaryStage) throws Exception {
window = primaryStage;
Parent root = FXMLLoader.load(getClass().getResource("sample.fxml"));
primaryStage.setTitle("GUI v3.0");
primaryStage.setScene(new Scene(root, 700, 700));
primaryStage.getIcons().add(new Image("/sample/R_enormousRing.png"));
primaryStage.show();
//Stage 2
//secondaryStage.setScene(new Scene(root, 700, 700));
Parent secondary = FXMLLoader.load(getClass().getResource("sample2.fxml"));
String hostName = "localhost"; // hard coded at the moment, but I'm trying to get the values from the "login" scene and use those
int portNumber = 2123; //idem
Socket serverSocket = new Socket(hostName, portNumber);
Controller.java
public class Controller {
@FXML
private GridPane grid;
public void initialize() {
// useless code for now
}
Controller2.java
public class Controller2 {
//empty for now
}
and I hope that the FXML's aren't necessary right now.
Updated code
public class Main extends Application {
@FXML
public Button button;
@Override
public void start(Stage primaryStage) throws Exception {
FXMLLoader loader = new FXMLLoader(getClass().getResource("SceneOneController.fxml"));
Parent root = loader.load();
primaryStage.setTitle("GUI v3.0");
primaryStage.setScene(new Scene(root, 700, 700));
primaryStage.getIcons().add(new Image("/sample/R_enormousRing.png"));
primaryStage.show();
//Stage 2
//secondaryStage.setScene(new Scene(root, 700, 700));
button.setOnMouseClicked((MouseEvent event) -> {
FXMLLoader innerLoader = new FXMLLoader(getClass().getResource("MainController.fxml"));
try
{
Stage stage = new Stage();
Parent innerRoot = innerLoader.load();
stage.setTitle("Scene One");
stage.setScene(new Scene(innerRoot, 700, 700));
stage.show();
primaryStage.close();
} catch (IOException e)
{
e.printStackTrace();
}
});
and errors

Exception running application sample.Main
In this sample app, I add a Button. I set the Button to disabled. I load the Splash Screen. When the Splash Screen finish loading, I enable the Button. If the Button is clicked, it loads the first Scene.
