I've been testing LiveConnect on Mozilla 0.9.5 using Sun's 1.3.1 JRE on RedHat 7.1 Linux. All I did to get Suns JRE installed was:
# rpm -ivv jre-1.3.1_....i386.rpm # ln -s /usr/java/jre..../libjavaplugin.so ..../mozilla/dist/bin/plugins I've been using the testcases from mozilla: http://www.mozilla.org/quality/browser/front-end/testcases/oji/liveconnectte st.html It seems as though about 7 out of the 24 test cases crash the browser. I'm not sure why. Going through the release notes from 0.9.2 and on, they all basically say the same thing about LiveConnect - that 1) it is enabled by default, 2) it works with JRE 1.3.0 and 1.3.1 but that 3) there are known issues with it. Checking Bugzilla there are 19 outstanding LiveConnect issues, but its hard to say that these would cause that many test cases to crash. I know someone who has written his own Java plugin based on MRJ and got it working with IBM's 1.3 JRE and all 24 tests passed with flying colors. This tells me that the core part of the LiveConnect engine is working just fine. Anyone have any ideas what I'm doing wrong? Thanks, Ben
