So, I developed an application in Pivot that I would like to deploy as an
Applet. The application works great from Eclipse, and requires access to the
file system (file upload), so the resulting jar must be signed. I created my
jar and signed it, and attempted opening a simple html file with it
included:
<applet code="org.apache.pivot.wtk.BrowserApplicationContext$HostApplet"
archive="lib/pivot-core-1.5.jar,lib/pivot-wtk-1.5.jar,lib/pivot-wtk-terra-1.5.jar,MyJar.jar"
width="700" height="500">
</applet>
My directory looks like this:
folder
+--lib
| +-- pivot-core-1.5.jar
| +-- pivot-wtk-1.5.jar
| +-- pivot-wtk-terra-1.5.jar
+--MyJar.jar
+--test.html
When I open the file in either Firefox or IE, the base Pivot window loads,
and then an Alert pops up in Pivot telling me "sandboxed loader attempted to
load trusted resource path.nam" (got cut off by the alert box, but I'm sure
its my main class)
Research led me to discover that this was caused by the unsigned pivot code
attempting to load my signed jar file. The fix was to modify my manifest
with the line "Trusted-Library: true". This fixed the issue with the loader
complaining about the mixed code, but introduced a new alert box with simply
the text "org/apache/pivot/wtkx/Bindable" (My main class implements
Bindable).
I've tried a bunch of different configurations, but can't seem to find one
that works. Anyone have any ideas or has anyone encountered this problem?
