------------------------------------
Summary: Using latest 1.7 JDK to build there is an error related
to JSObject.getWindow
Key: PIVOT-912
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PIVOT-912
Project: Pivot
Issue Type: Bug
Components: wtk
Affects Versions: 2.0.4, 2.1
Environment: JDK 1.7.0_25, Windows 7
Reporter: Roger Whitcomb
Assignee: Roger Whitcomb
Priority: Minor
Fix For: 2.0.4, 2.1
A recent update to the JDK (at least since 1.7.0_11) has broken the build with
the following error:
[javac] /home/hudson/jenkins-slave/workspace/Pivot-maintenance on Java
7/pivot_maintenance/wtk/src/org/apache/pivot/wtk/BrowserApplicationContext.java:404:
error: cannot find symbol
[javac] JSObject window =
JSObject.getWindow(applicationHostApplet);
[javac] ^
[javac] symbol: method getWindow(HostApplet)
[javac] location: class JSObject
>From a posting here:

it appears that duplicate (but not the same) definitions of the JSobject class
are causing problems.
We set our classpath to all the *.jar files in the jre/lib directory. So,
removing the "jfxrt.jar" (which we don't need) eliminates the duplicate and we
get the correct class in "plugin.jar".
