I need to ensure that the UpdateManager and all SVG element are not null and available before an Applet's init() method returns in the code below. In other words, I need to delay init() from returning until gvtRendingCompleted() is called.
Does anybody have any suggestions on how I might accomplish this? I have tried many approaches but to no avail. I am unclear about the relationship between the GVTTreeBuilder thread and the main thread. Any help with this would be much appreciated as I am facing a deadline. //---------------------------------------------------------------- init() { File f = new File("file.svg"); canvas = new JSVGCanvas(); canvas.addGVTTreeRendererListener(new GVTTreeRendererAdapter() { public void gvtRenderingCompleted(GVTTreeRendererEvent e) { um = canvas.getUpdateManager(); element = doc.getElementByID("name"); . . . } }); canvas.setDocumentState(JSVGCanvas.ALWAYS_DYNAMIC); String parser = XMLResourceDescriptor.getXMLParserClassName(); SAXSVGDocumentFactory factory = new SAXSVGDocumentFactory(parser); doc = factory.createDocument(f.toURL().toString()); canvas.setDocument(doc); // delay goes here } //---------------------------------------------------------------- --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
