I'm hosting XMLmind via WebStart and could not find a way to override the default look and feel. I was able to do so in a standalone application, in which the default look and feel classname can be specified with the lookAndFeelClassName property in the preferences.properties file. However, there seems to be no mechanism to pass this information into a WebStart application. I even tried specifying the standard "swing.laf" property in the jnlp descriptor without success.
I think that there are two ways to accomplish this, both requiring changes to the XXE distribution: 1) Provide a means to specify that the preferences.properties is located inside of one of the jars packaged with the webstart app. The XXE_USER_PREFERENCES only allows the specification of a filename, which cannot be known ahead of time in a webstart app. 2) Have the WebStart class look for a XXE_LAF_CLASSNAME property specifying the look and feel classname. Is there a simpler mechanism for specifying the default LAF in a webstart app? Cheers, Mike Santy -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
