SOT: Java OpenGL

1999-04-15 Thread Bernd Kreimeier


Several people have asked for Java3D. I would like to 
draw the attention of those interested in an immediate
mode graphics API for Java to the following:

Following the demise of Magician, and reading the logs
of the ARB discussions, I set out to file a feature
request for Java OpenGL bindings being part of the
Java Language Specification (suggested as java.awt.gl).

The request is available at:
http://developer.java.sun.com/developer/bugParade/bugs/4223302.html

There will only be a minority on this list interested
in OpenGL, however, I would appreciate if you could take
the time to check and consider adding your comment. 
Due to the bonehead way Sun is currently handling JDC,
you can't vote for the request, instead you are supposed
to add a feedback line.

Fonts with JDK1.1.7

1999-04-15 Thread Nenad Stepanovic

I need to make java application which uses characters from ISO8859-2 and
ISO8859-5 code sets. Unicode have both code pages included. Installing
Unicode fonts (ISO10646) was the first step. When I tried to reconfigure
java environment, I didn't found font.properties that covers true
Unicode font sets. I only found those that maps one ISO8859 code page
into Unicode.

Is there some way to reconfigure java environment to use characters
without preconfigured mapping.

Regards,
Nenad Stepanovic.

problem running programs...

1999-04-15 Thread James A. Cubeta

hello all.

i'm experiencing what i hope is a simple problem trying to use the linux
jdk1.2. i can compile just fine, but when i attempt to run my program i get
the following message:

Exception in thread "main" java.lang.UnsatisfiedLinkError:
/usr/jdk1.2/jre/lib/i386/libfontmanager.so: libstdc++-libc6.0-1.so.2:
cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

now i verified the obvious, but what i don't know is where to go to get
this lib. i am running RedHat 5.2, so i would prefer an RPM. uname output is:

Linux blah.com 2.1.125 #3 SMP Thu Dec 24 10:04:31 EST 1998 i686 unknown

any help would be greatly appreciated!

Re: java-linux-digest Digest V99 #130

1999-04-15 Thread Marius Schamschula

Feng-Cheng,

You beat me to the post. I've got a similar, related?, problem. I have
two machines, both running mkLinux DR3. The older runs jdk117_v1a. I've
got a simple directory listing cgi, JFind, running under Apache (I
directly use java, not Jserv, via a shell wrapper). It returns the
correct CST and CDT. The newer machine is running jdk12pre. It returns
EST and EDT, whereas the unix shell command date returns the correct
time zone: CST and CDT. JFind uses the java.util.Date routines:

File f = new File (somefile);
Date d = new Date (f.lastModified ());

Does anyone know what is going on?

Marius

Hello all,
I have a question about the time zone settings:
My Linux box is using local CST time, but the java.lang.Calendar or
java.lang.Date always report CDT...
Here is my program:

import java.lang.*;
import java.util.*;

public class TestCal {
public static void main(String[] argv) {
Calendar cal = Calendar.getInstance();
System.out.println(cal.getTime());
}
}

The output of the program is always CDT time.
Could anybody tell me how to solve this problem? thanks.

Newer jdk and macintosh

1999-04-15 Thread Rick Goyette

I am experiencing a problem when logging onto a linux box from my mac using
eXodus 7.0 and running java programs with versions newer than
jdk1.1.6-v2-glibc.  It seems to be a window manager problem (eXodus uses
some version of motif), since when I run it from the linux box console, or
any other linux box I have tried, the problem does not appear.  Has anyone
else experienced problems with java windows not displaying correctly on
mac's when run with later versions of jdk?

They may have a reason for doing it... like they used native code or

you mean the property os.name? try adding -Dos.name="Windows NT" to the

Re: java.util.Calendar timezone problem

1999-04-15 Thread Chris Abbey

You two got me curious... on my linux 117_v1a the system is set to CST via
/etc/localtime -> ../usr/share/zoneinfo/US/Central and `date` returns times
in CDT as expected... (three weeks ago it returned CST as expected) HOWEVER
user.timezone is always EST when I start java, and System.out.println(new
Date()); results in EDT (at least it's consistent...) If I over-ride
user.timezone on the command line with CST then I get CDT, as expected, and
if I override with CDT I get GMT from the println. (believe it or not...
also as expected!)

The only difference between Linux and (IBM's) NT then is that NT sets
user.timezone to _my_ timezone instead of arbitrarily picking EST. Why
isn't Linux??

I think there has been some massive reworking of the java.util.Date, and 
Gregorian Calendar from 1.1 to 1.2... I wouldn't be surprised if something
broke in the process.

By "always" you mean since the first Sunday of April right? This is correct
behavior. To test this set your clock back to February or March and run your
program again... it'll report CST. There is probably an option somewhere in
Calendar to not adjust to daylight savings time... but it might confuse a
few people if the clock on the wall and the program don't agree eight months
out of the year. -=Chris

Re: java.util.Calendar timezone problem

1999-04-15 Thread Feng-Cheng Chang

I have the /etc/localtime link to /usr/share/zoneinfo/Asia/Taipei,
which is reported as CST under date command and the offset is GMT+8
(uh...confilict with /usr/share/zoneinfo/US/Central ??).
The GMT+8 is the TimeZone CTT. I'm so confused why the zoneinfo are different
under OS and java.
One more thing, I tried to run the same timezone program on Linux, Solaris, and
WindowsNT,
and both Linux and Solaris reported CST, while on WindowsNT reported CTT.
A workarnound is to override the user.timezone to CTT.
Is there any way to let Calendar.getInstance() detect the correct timezone?

Re: java.util.Calendar timezone problem

1999-04-15 Thread Bryce McKinlay

There are many problems with the Calendar classes in JDK 1.1.7, and they are
not specific to Linux. As Chris Abbey has suggested, you can sometimes work
around them by setting the user.timezone property - however for many timezones
(New Zealand and Australian ones, for example), it will still screw up in other
ways. JDK 1.2 works much better in this respect.

regards
