Displaying text vertically

1999-12-20 Thread ALPESH KOTHARI

Hello everybody,

I am using Java2 on RH6.0. I want to display some text
using in vertical direction. g.drawstring displays
string only in horizontal direction. How can I do
that??

There is also one more thing. When I open some text
file and after reading display the contents in Java
using EditorPane it replaces tab(\t) by a square
bracket. How can I do away with this problem?

With Regards,
Alpesh

Hi,

What is the simplest way to check, whether the file
exist or not on the Linux hard drive? Is there any operation
which delivers binary output whether file exist or not?

Thank you,

Problem with Swing: can't load LookAndFeel-class

1999-12-20 Thread Thomas Foerster


Hi! 

I have a problem running Swing-applications with the new Blackdown JDK1.2.2 RC3.

The following program 

---
import javax.swing.*;

public class UIManagerDefaults {
public static void main(String[] args) {
System.out.println("Default L&F: " + UIManager.getLookAndFeel().getName());
}
}  
-

throws this error:

$ java -verbose UIManager
(... tons of debug info...)
[Loaded javax.swing.UIManager$1 from /home/thomas/bla/jdk1.2.2/jre/lib/rt.jar]
[Loaded javax.swing.plaf.metal.MetalLookAndFeel from 
/home/thomas/bla/jdk1.2.2/jre/lib/rt.jar]
[Loaded javax.swing.plaf.basic.BasicLookAndFeel from 
/home/thomas/bla/jdk1.2.2/jre/lib/rt.jar]

(... more debug info  ...)
[Loaded java.awt.image.PixelInterleavedSampleModel from 
/home/thomas/bla/jdk1.2.2/jre/lib/rt.jar]
[Loaded java.lang.IllegalArgumentException from 
/home/thomas/bla/jdk1.2.2/jre/lib/rt.jar]
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.Error: can't load 
javax.swing.plaf.metal.MetalLookAndFeel

at javax.swing.UIManager.initialize(UIManager.java, Compiled Code)
at javax.swing.UIManager.maybeInitialize(UIManager.java, Compiled Code)
at javax.swing.UIManager.getLookAndFeel(UIManager.java, Compiled Code)
at UIManagerDefaults.main(UIManagerDefaults.java, Compiled Code)   


So javax.swing.plaf.metal.MetalLookAndFeel is loaded in the first place, but then  it 
says it isn't?

When I override the default LAF to WindowsLAF the same thing happens. 

I also tried the MotifLAF, and it works:

$ java  -Dswing.defaultlaf=com.sun.java.swing.plaf.motif.MotifLookAndFeel 
UIManagerDefaults  
Default L&F: CDE/Motif


A friend of mine, who is using the JDK1.2.2 with the very same linux distribution 
(Suse 6.3), has no such problems.
What's wrong with my system?

Any ideas?

Re: invalid method hash with rmi calls

1999-12-20 Thread Joseph Shraibman

OK that was with the inprise jdk.  I had to switch back to blackdown because the
Inprise jdk was core dumping on me.  Now I'm getting the same 'invalid message
hash' ServerException with Blackdown and I can't fix it no matter what I do with
my policy file.

glibc requirements

1999-12-20 Thread André Dahlqvist


Hi

I noted in Blackdowns README file that glibc 2.1.2 is required, and read
in Sun's README file that glic 2.1 is required for their version. Does
anyone know if they mean that any 2.1.x version works?

Re: Blackdown JDK vs Sun/Inprise

1999-12-20 Thread noisebrain


Aren't we forgetting something in this discussion?

Average PC has 64M, you want to write an application that runs
on this PC, your dev environment (JBuilder or whatever)
has, in addition to the application, a compiler, the IDE, a debugger...

...your development environment is probably going to need more than 64m.
This would be as true of a C/C++ ide.

That Java may use more memory than C++ running on the native GUI
is a different issue, and has nothing to do with JBuilder.

Using JPDA with Blackdown JDK?

1999-12-20 Thread Matthew Brown

Hello,
As my subject line says is that question I would like to ask.  Can the
JDPA work with Blackdown or does it require us to port it to Linux?? Is
the JPDA 100% java or does it require some native calls that need to be
rewritten for linux??

Some porting is required. The Inprise JDK (available from Sun) has JPDA,
Blackdown (currently) does not.
