My apologies. (was "Hi Steve!")
All -- I'm very sorry. I mistakenly sent an email to this list, thinking that it was a vanity alias for Steve Byrne, a former coworker. I realize now that was a bad assumption. So if you're named Steve, I apologize for the confusion. ;-) And if you're -not- named Steve (Byrne) I apologize for the intrusion. regards, bryce glass

Swing in JDK 1.2
Hi everybody I'm just pointing out to everybody that JavaWorld (www.javaworld.com) are doing a poll, on whether it is right for Sun to put Swing under the package name com.sun.java.swing. This is very important for us in the open source community to try and change Sun's minds. As we may in the future want to write a open source version of Swing, and I don't think it is right for us to put our code under com.sun.java.swing. The poll page is http://nigeria.wpi.com/cgi-bin/gwpoll/gwpoll/ballot.html Thanks Robert Fitzsimons [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Re: Swing in JDK 1.2
Dear All, I agree with this but for another reason. In an ideal world we shouldn't have to write code in the 'com.sun.*" package but I don't think it is a huge problem. If we have to then we have to, I wouldn't imaging that it would raise any major legal problems. Sun probably doesn't really appreciate the efforts of the free-Java teams as it is, and writing code for that package is nowhere near the same level as writing an entire Windows emulator (ie. Wine). Anyway I reckon the problem of leaving Swing in the 'com.swun.*' package is that it does suggest to people that Swing is not an integral part of Java. For Java to work Swing has to come as a standard part of the package. As it is MS is not going to support Swing despite what their licensing agreement is meant to say. Imagine trying to explain to a judge that despite everything else being in 'java.*' and 'javax.*', 'com.sun.swing' actually is a essential, standard part of Java. Anyway that's my 0.02 pence worth. andy. /\ () /\Andrew Dodd Tel: +44 0161 257 3312 / \/\ / \/\ Computer Science, University of Manchester = == "I'm only paranoid because everyone is out to get me." == == - Major Frank Burns (M.A.S.H) == On Fri, 7 Aug 1998, Robert Fitzsimons wrote: > Hi everybody > > I'm just pointing out to everybody that JavaWorld (www.javaworld.com) are > doing a poll, on whether it is right for Sun to put Swing under the package > name com.sun.java.swing. > > This is very important for us in the open source community to try and > change Sun's minds.

Help!
This days, I was installing Red Hat 5.0 and jdk1.1.5v7. Java don´t work. Before, I had Slackware 2.0.30, and no problems with java. What can I do? _ DO YOU YAHOO!? Get your free @yahoo.com address at http://mail.yahoo.com
Hi Steve!
Hi there, Steve -- you may or may not remember me... I was one of Annette Wagner's interns a couple of summers back on HotJava. I was just looking at your JDK 1.1.6 Linux port pages, and noticed your name. I thought I would drop you a line. Since leaving JavaSoft, I have returned to Georgia Tech and completed my degree there, then came back out to the valley. I've been working as a UI designer at Netscape for over a year now! I work in our Server Products Division. (I've worked mostly on LDAP-related products.) It's had its ups and downs, but - both personally and professionally - it has been a good experience for me. It's somewhat of a coincidence that I spotted your name tonight as I have recently been in contact with Mike Albers and Chris Ryan at Javasoft - they've agreed to come speak to my group about JFC, which we've been using in our next-generation server line. Are you still at JavaSoft? Still with HotJava? If so, please give my best to everyone - Terry Cline, especially! Mark Johnson now lives out here, too, up in Novato - he's more into DVD authoring and content creation these days than software development, and seems to be enjoying it immensely. well, take care Steve, and I hope this note finds you well... regards, bryce glass
Strange keyboard behaviour in Swing1.1beta
Hi I am using RedHat 4.2 with fvwm95 and JDK1.1.6v2 (Steve Byrne) and Swing-1.0.2 and it's working good. But when I switched to Swing-1.1beta I got some strange keyboard behaviour: When filling in a form (some JTextFields) the characters that I type on the keyboard aren't displayed. I have to click with the mouse on the dialog bar (on top) and then click back in the JTextField explicitly to enable typing on the keyboard. My form consists of a JTabbedPane where you can switch from add to modify to list ... When I change the tab and go back to my add tab I the same problem comes up again. After 'tabbing' I always have to click on the dialog bar once. Has anyone else experienced these problems? Any clues for a solution? Regards Wim Ceulemans Nice Software Solutions

Any clues for a solution? jdk-1.1.6-libc5.tar.gz / swing1.1-beta / ld.so.1.9.9 / kernel 2.0.33 / i586 Nope, I have n't not seen any JTextField problems in JSql application which has tabbed panes in it. Maybe if you can write a small program to demonstrate the bug. I assuming your form is like a dialog under windows , say the control panel's system devices has tabbed panes for instance. There are outstanding problems with JDialog. For example a JDialog can not pop up another JDialog. Maybe the official bug parade has the answer at sunsoft.

Re: Swing in JDK 1.2
I really hate to respond to this with a cross post to all these lists but I feel I have to because of all the crap that sun has been putting Java developers through lately. Both sides of this argument have made good points on the feedback page for this poll. The point I feel has been lost in the debate is that sun has made a number of promises about swing that have later been broken. First they promised a MVC GUI system that would run on unix, max and windows. They have delivered a decent set of components but they have deliberately placed locks on the look and feel classes so that a windows style look can only be run on a 95 or NT, and a Mac look can only be run on a Mac. The real problem here is that Sun does not think that the Java developer community is as important as their "partners" (those who license Java). There is only one really plausible reason Sun has decided to make this change without warning the Java developer community. One of the Java "partners" must have called Sun and told them that they did not feel like updating their code when moving from jdk1.1 to jdk1.2. This is why folks are so pissed off. I have to admit I am getting a little worried about Sun defining ISO Java specifications that include sucks hacks and com.sun.java.swing. What we really need is a more open "open process" from Sun.

AWT Bug? Threading problem? Or am I losing my mind?
Hi,
I'm building a versioning server-client pair using RMI and I thought it
would be fun to have a little traffic light to indicate that something is
happening: green means go ahead, red means it's busy doing something. I
wrote Light.java, an excruciatingly simple traffic light. At the start of
the actionPerformed method in the versioning client, I set it red (which
calls repaint internally), and at the end I set it green. There's only
one problem: it doesn't work.
I wrote a little demo (Test.java)
Here's what happens:
when setColor is called in some places (say, the Test constructor), it
works just fine (whee, it's a traffic light!). when setColor is called
within the actionPerformed method, the repaint doesn't go through until
the end of the actionPerformed method is reached. I tried doing
repaint(10L), with the same result.
Here's my explanation:
the event distributing thread is a higher-priority thread than the
repainting one, and this somehow messes up the repaint() call.
Let's make the assumption that I haven't made a glaring error (may not be
a reasonable assumption since my brain is a bit fried), and assume that
this is in fact a bug. Now, this is by no means a major bug, and I'm sure
I could do a work-around, but if repaint(10L) is called, shouldn't paint
get called within 10 ms, regardless of what other threads are executing?
Or am I on crack?
Thanks,
dstn.
