mouseevent not working in java fx [duplicate] - gradle

Question

I am trying to make a tableview clickable, where it will return the text in the cell that is clicked. I am receiving two errors when trying to compile in Netbeans. All of the code was taken from "Example 12-11: Alternative Solution Of Cell Editing" official tableview tutorial & from this stackoverflow.com answer. Here are the errors:
type argument MouseEvent is not within bounds of type-variable T
cell.addEventFilter(MouseEvent.MOUSE_CLICKED, new EventHandler() {
where T is a type-variable:
T extends Event declared in interface EventHandler
method addEventFilter in class Node cannot be applied to given types;
cell.addEventFilter(MouseEvent.MOUSE_CLICKED, new EventHandler() {
required: EventType,EventHandler
found: int,>
reason: no instance(s) of type variable(s) T exist so that argument type int conforms to formal parameter type EventType
where T is a type-variable:
T extends Event declared in method addEventFilter(EventType,EventHandler)

Answer 1

You have the wrong import for MouseEvent. You need javafx.scene.input.MouseEvent, not the AWT version.

Answer 2

It is likely that when your IDE prompted you to import MouseEvent, the first option was java.awt.event.MouseEvent, rather than javafx.scene.input.MouseEvent.
Be careful while importing with JavaFX, as many of it's classes have the same names as classes in standard Java libraries.
