Metal Look and Feel with 16 bit color

1999-10-27 Thread Chris LeDantec

We've noticed a problem with the Metal look-and-feel and 16 bit color.

Basically, if an X server is set to 16 bit color depth, then applications
(specifically NetBeans Developer) will not load the Metal look and feel --
subsequently crashing.

Is this an issue with the motif libraries that are linked in with java at
this time?  If the color depth is set to 8 bit  or 24 or 32 bit then
everything works fine, no problems.  It is only an issue that arises with
the 16 bit color depth.

Any insight into this would be great...

Thanks,

Yes, this seems to be normal.
We encountered the same thing with different color depths.
If I remember right, 24 bit did not work at all, 16 and 32 worked.
This "bug" should be mentioned in the Blackdown bug list.

I did not try it with Motif LooknFeel, so I cant comment on that 
affecting Metal only.

Is this an issue with the motif libraries that are linked in with java

this time?  If the color depth is set to 8 bit  or 24 or
32 bit then

I run my desktop at 16 bit color depth and have never had a problem with
the Metal look & feel in any app (our own or 3rd party).
I fired up a copy of Netbeans ( DeveloperX2 2.1.1) to check it out
and it comes up fine in Metal (can also switch back and forth between Metal
and Motif L&F without problem). This works fine with both Blackdown
JDK1.1.7v3 and JDK1.2pre v2.
I'm on Redhat 6.0, so that's:
 Kernel 2.2.5-15
    XFree86 3.3.1-49
and I use the stock XF86_SVGA XServer, works without problem on my setup.

Serialization with Ibm jdk???

1999-10-27 Thread andrey


Hi, All!

I just noticed a little problem:
When I tried to serialize class with "private static int xxx" IBM's jdk hung
(Blackdown's didn't :) )

It works fine if I make it "private transient static int xxx".

My question is: What java SUPPOSED to do with class like this. I haven't seen 
it in documentation but I guess it should just ignore static fields.
Do I have to make static fields ALWAYS explicitly TRANSIENT?

Thanks.

Re: Metal Look and Feel with 16 bit color

1999-10-27 Thread Nathan Meyers

The AWT doesn't do well with X visuals not matching those found on
Solaris platforms. In some past discussion on this topic, it came up
that running the X server at depth 15 (X -bpp 15) creates a visual (5
bits for each primary) that the AWT seems to like much better.

A perusal of the mailing list archives will show that it's not a

No, the default behavior is to not serialize static fields, see
section 1.5 in the Serialization specification:

Default serializable fields of a class are defined to be the
non-transient and non-static fields.

RMI and ClassFormatException

jdk linux licensing

1999-10-27 Thread Ruchir Tewari


Can the blackdown linux jdk be shipped with a product ?
What is the best way to ship a product on linux which
depends on the linux jdk ? Note that the full jdk is required,
not just the java runtime.

thanks for any info,
- Ruchir

Broken pipe error

1999-10-27 Thread Timothy Owen Reilly

My servlets use formatting templates which output HTML to the browser. 
Unfortunately, I get a broken pipe exception right after they're done
outputting their HTML.  What I don't get is that this happens right AFTER they
are done.  There is a function that does the following:

public void outputHTML( Some parameters) {
try {
//Output lots of HTML, then end with
out.println("");
} catch (Exception E) {
//This is where the exception is caught
}
}

The thing which confuses me is that the exception is triggered after all the
HTML is output.  Both the  and  tags make it out to the 
browser, but a Broken pipe exception is triggered immediately thereafter such
that it is caught just below this line.

Can anyone please suggest how to fix this?

-Tim

Java 2D on Linux - font weirdness

1999-10-27 Thread Robbie Baldock

I'm having a weird problem with a GIF-generating Java 2 app I'm 
running on Linux.  I'm calling the Java app from a Perl script (don't 
ask!) with a line like:

system "java XYZ myarguments";

When I run this from the command line it works perfectly 
(generating a graph with text labels in GIF format) but when I run 
exactly the same script as a CGI script from a web-page it 
generates the same image but the text is all in a Greek font!

Obviously, this is something to do with the environment the 
Perl/Java code is running in.  Has anyone come across anything 
like this before?


Robbie

No; I would suspect this is a bug in the object serialization java libs coming
with the IBM jdk; static fields are specified in the ObjectOutput documentation
to be implicitly transient when serializing objects.

This is a wild guess, but it might help substituting the IBM class libs with the
BlackDown class files, although this might cause more harm than good.

Re: RMI and ClassFormatException

1999-10-27 Thread Chris Abbey

bad magic number means that the first 4 bytes of the delivered class file did
not match 0xcafebabe. check that whatever server is handling the URL (i.e.
a webserver) is sending it as binary, and that it isn't returning something
like this: "404: file not found" ;)

Getting jdk1.2 to run

1999-10-27 Thread Gordon Lindsay


Hi,
I've got a dumb question,
I cant get JDK1.2 to work on linux.
I have unziped into a directory and when i go into the bin
directory, and type
java or javc or any of the jdk commands, it returns
'#bash: javac unknown command'.
I'm running X windows on slackware 2.2.6, with jdk1.2pre-v2.tar.bz2.

What do i need to do to get to work???

ANY help would be greatly appreciated!

1. Unpack into something like /usr/local/java/jdk1.2.2-prev2/.
2. export PATH=/usr/local/java/jdk1.2.2-prev2/bin/
3. [java javac] all the way

Setting the PATH in a global loginfile (like /etc/profile) would be
considered a good idea.
