Java Initializer exception using JxBrowser library

Question

I am trying to run some of Jx Browser's samples. After copying and pasting the sample code provided by it, and trying to run it, it gives me an Initializer error. here is the sample code and the exception. Can anybody tell me what's going on?

package jx.test;

import com.teamdev.jxbrowser.chromium.Browser;
import com.teamdev.jxbrowser.chromium.BrowserFactory;
import java.awt.BorderLayout;

import javax.swing.JFrame;
import javax.swing.WindowConstants;


public class JxTest {

    public static void main(String[] args) {
     final Browser browser = BrowserFactory.create();

        JFrame frame = new JFrame();
        frame.setDefaultCloseOperation(WindowConstants.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
        frame.add(browser.getView().getComponent(), BorderLayout.CENTER);
        frame.setSize(700, 500);
        frame.setLocationRelativeTo(null);
        frame.setVisible(true);

        browser.loadURL("http://www.google.com");
    }
}

The exception:

Exception in thread "main" java.lang.ExceptionInInitializerError

I think the error is self explanatory. You require a license.

The JxBrowser library requires a valid license (teamdev.licenses) file for operations. You can request a fully-functional 30-day evaluation license or purchase a commercial license for JxBrowser library.
