So, the solution is to wrap the call to SwingUtilities.invokeLater in a fresh thread, to avoid calling invokeLater on the AppKit thread. (Note that the invokeLater part is necessary on all platforms, to conform to the Swing threading requirements. It was erroneously missing from the ScriptEditorForBeanShell code.) The attached ScriptEditorForBeanShell.patch fixes this for the BeanShell editor. The JavaScript editor apparently has the same problem and will need to be fixed, too. - Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.

The Apple AWT Java VM was loaded on first thread -- can't start AWT. message appears to be a red herring. What is relevant is apparently not the thread on which the VM was created (via JNI_CreateJavaVM), but rather the thread on which any Java AWT/Swing functionality is actually triggered. This interpretation would be in line with what http://developer.apple.com/library/mac/#technotes/tn2005/tn2147.html JNI Development on Mac OS X - Thread-Safe JNI Programming - Calling AWT/Swing From AppKit says---the AppKit thread (i.e., the OOo main thread) must call AWT/Swing only asynchronously (e.g., via javax.swing.SwingUtilities.inovkeLater). As a proof of concept, the attached SvxScriptOrgDialog.patch (against DEV300_m100) modifies the Tools - Macros - Organize Macros - BeanShell... - Edit button so that it does its work asynchronously in a new thread, instead of synchronously on the OOo main thread (i.e., the AppKit thread). With the patch applied, at least with a DEV300_m100 unxmacxi non-pro OOo and Java 1.5.0_26 on Mac OS X 10.5.8, the editor window appears. The java_seperate_thread.diff patch appears not to be necessary after all. Also note that that patch is not correct, as the code in stoc/source/javavm/javavm.cxx expects the JNIEnv* returned from jfw_startVM to be attached to the current thread, which it no longer would be. In the above proof of concept, it was easy to asynchronously offload the edit code to a new thread (as the surrounding code does not expect any response back from the edit code, anyway, and lets it progress in parallel). However, I do not think that it is possible to automatically offload from the OOo main thread all work that might involve Java AWT/Swing functionality (maybe cd or pl can give input here). I think this rather needs to be seen the other way around: Java code executed in OOo cannot make assumptions about the thread it is running on; thus, to work cross platform (incl. Mac OS X), this code must assume that it might run on the AppKit thread and take the necessary measures when calling AWT/Swing (e.g., via invokeLater). - Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.

thanks for the alternative patch, I'll try it later on PPC/10.4, just one
question regarding my patch:
note that that patch is not correct, as the code in
stoc/source/javavm/javavm.cxx expects the JNIEnv* returned from jfw_startVM to
be attached to the current thread, which it no longer would be.
Yes, but only to detach it right away, so the patch just skips that step:
What am I missing? (feel free to reply by mail instead of commenting here)

Changed the code to use SwingUtilities.invokeLater() instead of synchroneously calling initUI() in the classes (originally copied from the bash scripting framework implementation, if my memory serves well, just creating an oorexx-directory and adapting the Java code copied from bash to ooRexx accordingly): com.sun.star.script.framework.provider.oorexx.PlainSourceView.java com.sun.star.script.framework.provider.oorexx.ScriptEditorForooRexx.java Tested the code under Windows (the Tools - Macros - ... - Edit is still functional ;) ). Unfortunately, the editor does still not show up on MacOSX. (The scripts execute, it is possible to create a new script from the supplied template.) The Mac logs (using the Console.app) does not show any messages from OOo nor from Java (enabling tracing and logging using the Java Preference utility in Application/Utilities), so I am not sure how to get at that information. Is it possible to activate tracing/debugging from the release version of OOo 3.3 for MacOSX somehow to become able to learn more about what happens in detail? - Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.

Not having it function properly on MacOSX *cripples* OOo bad time on that platform! It is only because of the possibilities to write macros/scripts that also allow non-professional programmers (end-user programmers) to become able to drive/program OOo. Employing this infrastructure also locks such users/businesses into the OOo environment. Plus only macros/scripts allow professional OOo developers to easily create applications, useful functionalities for their customers in an easy way (development and deployment alike)! Doing so, they get locked into OOo as well. Not being able to edit existing macros at all on MacOSX because of this (stupid) error, renders that part inaccessible and as a result totally useless to business users of OOo on MacOSX! Not having such a showstopper error fixed is therefore not understandable for me as this hints that those who allot resources to fixing issues have no clues about the impact and importance of the scripting framework on users and businesses! What are the reasons that the OOo developers ignore this unbelievable error for so long? Why hasn't it been solved long ago once and forever ? --- Whoever starts to work with Java on MacOSX using JNI will immediately be drawn to this very MacOSX issue of the CFRunLoop in the main thread and the JVM to have to be loaded in a separate thread if awt gets excercised. Apple has been very open and informative about this very issue (see links below), since 2005! In OOo it is a base feature, that awt/swing must work. Therefore I am totally stunned that this unbelievable defect has not been fixed long ago! It not only affects the scripting framework, but any Java code that employs awt/swing. Here a few links to (quite old!) Mac-documentation about this: http://developer.apple.com/library/mac/#technotes/tn2005/tn2147.html http://developer.apple.com/library/mac/#samplecode/simpleJavaLauncher/Introduction/Intro.html http://developer.apple.com/library/mac/#documentation/Java/Conceptual/Java14Development/07-NativePlatformIntegration/NativePlatformIntegration.html http://developer.apple.com/library/mac/#documentation/Java/Conceptual/Java14Development/04-JavaUIToolkits/JavaUIToolkits.html#//apple_ref/doc/uid/TP40001901-SW1 Oh, once started on a separate thread it is possible to attach to the JVM from other threads as well, AFAICT. [BTW: judging from the OpenJDK-wiki OpenJDK will exhibit the very same behaviour as the Apple ports of Java. So the problem won't go away, if someone would be speculating in that direction. Plus it seems, that the Apple changes to Java in the awt/swing area are being taken over as well by OpenJDK.] --- *Again, I consider this a showstopper error which should stop branching OOo 3.4, until it is fixed!* How could I increase the priority of this issue to P1? - Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
