Re: [libreoffice-accessibility] Does Java Access Bridge Work in 3.5.4?
Hello David, Another user was having issues with Java Access Bridge version 2.0.1 and version 2.0.2 and also with NVDA The Bugzilla report 46114 that you submitted appeared to be the most on topic but did not mention a resolution or workaround, so it was reopened. That is why you received recent emails. The Java Access Bridge 2.0.2 does not seem to work correctly with LibreOffice 3.5.4 if installed using instructions provided by Oracle. But it is not clear that JAB 2.0.1 works either if installed using Oracle instructions. So could you explain how you were able to configure your installation of Java Access Bridge 2.0.1 to work in LibreOffice 3.5.3? Thank you. -- View this message in context: http://nabble.documentfoundation.org/libreoffice-accessibility-Does-Java-Access-Bridge-Work-in-3-5-4-tp3987035p3987044.html Sent from the Accessibility mailing list archive at Nabble.com. -- Unsubscribe instructions: E-mail to accessibility+h...@global.libreoffice.org Problems? http://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/mailing-lists/how-to-unsubscribe/ Posting guidelines + more: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/global/accessibility/ All messages sent to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted
RE: [libreoffice-accessibility] Does Java Access Bridge Work in 3.5.4?
Hi. The issue with JAB not working in 3.5.0 was fixed in 3.5.1 and I'm currently running 3.5.3 on a 32-bit Win7 machine with JAB 2.0.2. I installed JAB 2.0.2 using a nifty lieelt program called Jwin written by Jamal Mazrui. Jwin automatically downloads and installs the correct version of JAB 2.0.2 since Oracle no longer offered an executable installer. I don't have the Url but if you search for Jwin Jamal Mazrui You're sure to find it. I can try it with 3.5.4 if there's a chance that accessibility might be working and can report back to you if you'd like. I guess I'd just rather know if it works or whether it will fail if someone knows for certain.

OK, Libo 3.5.4 seems to work with JAB 2.0.2. I haven't done exhaustive testing but menus read and I can use arrow keys to read text within a Writer document. If JAB wasn't working menus and arrow keys would be silent.

RE: [libreoffice-accessibility] Does Java Access Bridge Work in 3.5.4?
David, Thanks for the JWin tip and for checking your JAB 2.0.2 function in LO 3.5.4 Jamal Mazrui's JWin scripted installation ( http://empowermentzone.com/JWin.htm ) installs the correct Oracle provided DLL's and the JAB Jar files. But JWin does nothing different than Oracle's manual installation steps, so I must have made the error. It looks as if I'd borked the Java Access Bridge installation--guess it must be a common issue. Still poking around in the Windows specific LibreOffice configurations for NVDA--but it looks like the JAB 2.0.2 is mostly functional for LibreOffice 3.5.4 Will visit with the developers and probably now suggest closure of the 46114 Bugzilla report, although the LibreOffice crash was of concern, will not likely be able to reproduce.

RE: [libreoffice-accessibility] Does Java Access Bridge Work in 3.5.4?
Stuart, I also attempted to manually install JAB 2.0.2 and could not get NVDA to read the program and it was probably due to a similar error. I honestly do not understand why Oracle does not release an executable which nicely installs JAB as they did with 2.0.1. Jwin did a great job and it's what I'll use unless Oracle releases something which is more efficient.

Re: [libreoffice-accessibility] Does Java Access Bridge Work in 3.5.4?
Hi David and all. Well I don't know about NVDA, but 3.54 is working fine here with the Dolphin access suite, formerly Supernova. Although I love NVDA and I have it on all my systems I've frankly had very little luck in getting it to work with Libre office. I guess others have had more luck with this. Hope this helps.

Re: [libreoffice-accessibility] Does Java Access Bridge Work in 3.5.4?
Hi, all, Well, since it works on the Dolphin, I'm wondering how well it does with the shark. Going to fire it up tonight with Jaws 11 and see how it goes. OpenOffice worked better, especially Writer though Impress would have Jaws for lunch and render it speechless. I'll report findings on Libreoffice.
