Hi Philipp,
I have attempted some experiments with JavaFX.
I'm using Debian with CacaoVM implementing JSE 1.5,
and i tried the SDK preview samples "Stopwatch", "ImageRollover"
and "Madness".
Here are the results so far:
* "Stopwatch" run but was deadly slow!
It may be that it requires floating-point maths for the clock-pointers.
* "ImageRollover" (just a close-button) starts slow but is perfectly
responsive!
* "Madness" segfaulted CacaoVM with a "unable to find a Java method" message.
Attempts with others progs have also end-up with CacaoVM segfaults.
Tried also JamVM but classpath-classes didn't implement
Window.isLocationByPlatform() method so JavaFX aborts.
Hope the above info helps.
Regards,
Kostis
PS: These attempts are the precursory steps of evaluating the possibility of
an ala "Tichy" FSO-based JavaFX+OSGi software for OpenMoko devices.
Any feedback appreciated.
