Following the same question. Does anyone know of any good IDE which can use swing well? I tried super mojo and it crashes everytime I tried to import swing. Thanks. Mike.

Aaron, Although I'm not using JFC yet, I've informally tested it using the Swing 1.02 "SwingSet" and trying all the tabs. I had no notable problems using SBB JDK versions 1.1.5v5/7 on RedHat 5.0 and XFree86 v3.3.1. Good luck! Steve
Re: Swing under Linux
Be prepared for heavy memory conspomution when using swing though. It's done for revision is what i say. But anyway..it's just 100% java so no probs on Linux.
Re: Swing under Linux
Oh, most of the function of swing are also in some other commercial beans like the JClass and the shafir. I've been using them and feel they are quite well.

Re: Swing under Linux
> Does anyone know if the JFC (Swing) is available under Linux? Swing is (so far) just a bunch of 100% pure Java .jar files. So the answer to your question should be Yes.

Re: Swing under Linux
Swing is simply a jar file that you can include in your classpath (more or less). Download it and follow the instructions for the Sun OS and it works just fine-at least it works for me. In fact, I have started coding a mixer for Linux using the swing classes, and it looks fine to me. regards, KF Aaron Walker wrote: > > Does anyone know if the JFC (Swing) is available under Linux? > > Thanks, > Aaron

RE: Java Project Opinions?
Actually there where a couple of conversations on this. One of the scenarios was to implement the peer stuff using swing. The main reason was so that X portion of the JDK would not have to be ported. That would make getting releases of Java for Linux a little faster. Maybe? If I remember correctly the two biggest pains that are needed for swing are the Frame and Dialog classes. Once those are hooked up to some native library then using swing or someother toolkit for awt peers would be cool. I think.

Debian Java howto
I'd like to volunteer to start and maintain some documentation on installing and running the java JDK port under Debian. Primary focus would be on latest releases (i.e. those that haven't become debian packages yet), library issues etc. We do all our java development under Debian linux here, and I'd really like for there to be a little more info about installation issues. Any contributions would be greatly appreciated. -- Paul Reavis [EMAIL PROTECTED] Design Lead Partner Software, Inc.http://www.partnersoft.com

Java3D and JDK 1.1.6v7 on Linux, possibly with Mesa?
Hi! Java3D officially requires JDK 1.2. But, has anyone got it working with 1.1.6v7? I can run Java3D applets downloaded from the net, so it should work. I just want to make sure before I start downloading all those files. I'm not sure if the Solaris version *really* is a Solaris version, or a general Unix version intended for Solaris. Anyone got any thought on that? Is it possible to get it to work on Linux at all? --- / Peter Schuller Computers are not intelligent.

There is already a maintainer, I believe, but release issues and time make it hard to keep the .deb up with the absolute most current JDK release. For example, apparently the 1.1.5v7 release requires a version of glibc that is in the debian "unstable" distribution set; this would prevent people only running stable (bo) or frozen (hamm) from using it easily. 1.1.1 comes with hamm, but I want the latest and greatest, so I need to figure out all these library issues. -- Paul Reavis [EMAIL PROTECTED] Design Lead Partner Software, Inc.http://www.partnersoft.com

It turns out that rmiregistry and Naming.rebind apparently use different methods to resolve which host they are on, and with a standalone host you have to make sure the name you have assigned to your machine appears first in the localhost line of the /etc/hosts file. Maybe there's another way, but everything is working fine for me now. Since I lost access to NT in the process of trying to fix this, I'm glad I can now rely on Linux for my Java development. . Suffice to say that I'm going to see how long I can get along without NT. Maybe forever? John Collins

Hi, I've written a set of free Java drivers for the new CommAPI from Sun. These drivers allow you to access your Linux serial port from Java.
