Unable to launch GUI app from Kotlin REPL

Hi I am trying to launch a simple JavaFx application from Kotlin’s REPL to display a chart.

The code to launch the app is straightforward, but I get a

java.awt.HeadlessException

Googling, I found reference to this command, which I ran:

System.setProperty("java.awt.headless", "false")
true

but the problem continues, and I get the same error using Swing. How can I display GUI objects from the REPL?

thanks.

Unfortunately it’s not possible right now, I’ve reported an issue: https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/KT-18181
