Re: [Jgeneral] error with Graphviz and/or webview in j901 under Windows
Yes - I downloaded the zip file and copied up to j901 etc. I note that
jconsole.exe
has changed in size from my apparently aberrant installation. It's now
207 nominal kB
rather than 177 I was using.
Anyway, the graphview demo works, as does Run/Launchpad which does not
now show
qtdemo, as noted by Gilles in response to another query I put up an hour
or two ago.
No idea why/how this has happened, but perhaps I won't be troubling you
for a while!
Thanks a lot,
Mike

There are plenty of such files in bin - but I thought the date stamps
looked a bit old:
They are various, including April/19 for dlls: Qt5WebEngine,
Qt5MultiMedia etc, and
November/19 for Qt5WebSockets, Qt5Widgets etc.
Taking your point about permissions, quite a mystery with recent
incarnations of Windows,
I've retried once again, this time starting up Jconsole "as
administrator" (Windows 10);
(JQt having been closed)
Jconsole: (as before)

The date-stamps don't appear to have changed for those dlls.
Restarting JQt results in the same behaviour.
Just now, I noticed my laptop was telling me it wanted to update, so
I've restarted
Windows. I thought this might reset JQt in some fashion, but
restarting JQt once more
still yields the same result with ...smtest.ijs, while JVERSION
continues showing:
AFTER Windows update and restart:

Any other ideas?
NB - this isn't terribly important to me, but you presumably need to
know what's going
wrong anyway,

Are there any permission problems, e.g. you are running the

Re: [Jgeneral] Launchpad curiosity

[Jgeneral] Launchpad curiosity
Looking around for what might be wrong with my installation of JQt (concerning the problem running graphviz, currently being discussed) I noticed the JWiki page, https://code.jsoftware.com/wiki/Guides/Qt_IDE/Configure/Launch_Pad In my JQt session I tried Run/Launch Pad/qtdemo with this result: not found: c:/d/j901/addons/ide/qt/demo/qtdemo.ijs |file name error: script | 0!:0 y[4!:55<'y' Running Package Manager in case I'd missed this addon, I then spotted qtdemo.ijs elsewhere: ~addons/demos/qtdemo/qtdemo.ijs which is perfectly reasonable. That script appears to run without error. No great problem for me, but might be of interest and concern elsewhere, Cheers, Mike -- For information about J forums see http://www.jsoftware.com/forums.htm
