Start application to open PDF file using HostServices

The javafx.application.HostServices class provides HostServices for an Application. Its showDocument() method opens the specified URI in a new browser window or tab.

Example:

package javafx_pdf;
import java.io.File;
import javafx.application.Application;
import javafx.application.HostServices;
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.FileChooser;
import javafx.stage.Stage;
/**
 * @web http://java-buddy.blogspot.com/
 */
public class JavaFX_Pdf extends Application {
 
 @Override
 public void start(final Stage primaryStage) {
 Button btn = new Button();
 btn.setText("Load PDF");
 btn.setOnAction(new EventHandler<ActionEvent>() {
 @Override
 public void handle(ActionEvent event) {
 FileChooser fileChooser = new FileChooser();
 
 //Set extension filter
 FileChooser.ExtensionFilter extFilter = 
 new FileChooser.ExtensionFilter("PDF files (*.pdf)", "*.pdf");
 fileChooser.getExtensionFilters().add(extFilter);
 
 //Show open file dialog
 File file = fileChooser.showOpenDialog(primaryStage);
 HostServices hostServices = getHostServices();
 hostServices.showDocument(file.getAbsolutePath());
 }
 });
 
 StackPane root = new StackPane();
 root.getChildren().add(btn);
 
 Scene scene = new Scene(root, 300, 250);
 
 primaryStage.setTitle("java-buddy.blogspot.com");
 primaryStage.setScene(scene);
 primaryStage.show();
 }
 public static void main(String[] args) {
 launch(args);
 }
}

  1. On my computer starts the default browser and shows the PDf file in the browser. Why? (Host is Linux Mint).
