On HP-UX I've been able to copy the Swing 1.1 JAR files into
.../netscape/java/classes in order to run Swing 1.1 applets in Netscape
Communicator 4.5. (Putting the JAR files in CLASSPATH works as well.)
But on my Linux box (Red Hat 5.1; linux 2.1.119 kernel) this doesn't
seem to work. Depending on which Swing 1.1 applet I run, I'm either
prompted by the default plugin to download the Java Plugin (which AFAIK
doesn't exist yet for JDK 1.2) or get the following error:
Applet SwingingApplet error:
java.lang.classFormatError: Bad magic number
I successfully built and ran a small Swing 1.1 *application* using the
1.1 JAR files, so I suspect that the files are not corrupt.
I've also tried the Swing 1.1.1 Beta 1 with no different results.
Is there anything I can do to get Swing 1.1 to work with Communicator?
TIA,
Jim Caley
