<0> romania?
<1> when i run my applet consisting of swing gui componenets with appletviewer it works fine, but when i view it in mozilla firefox (im on kubuntu) it dosn't display it properly and i have to hover over elements for them to apear sometimes, and it eventually freezes.
<1> would this be a problem with the run time environment itself, i think i have sun java 5 run time environment
<2> whiting: probably the runtime environment, yeah. If you're using Linux then its very likely to be caused by that <censored> piece of <censored> called "GNU/Java" which is totally incompatible with the real thing.
<1> ok kool, and do you know why appletviewer runs so much slower then when in a browser?
<1> or is this just me,
<1> because everything i make runs better in the browser (except my latest swing applet which dosn't run)
<2> no idea from mind
<1> hmm, it says i alread got the latest versions of sun 5



<3> whiting_ : i haven't noticed a big loss of speed in the appletviewer but i hardly use it
<4> ah ok, must be just my configuration then.
<5> I've got a freak problem...
<5> "The method createfont(int, File) is undefined for the type Font"
<5> But JavaDoc plainly states that there IS a (int, File) constructor
<6> createfont?
<6> java is case-sensitive
<5> Dear lord I ****
<7> can anyone help me with a javascript problem?
<5> Dear lord I ****. I've spent 15 minutes on this @#$#@. :D
<7> ok ... thanks Clackwell ...
<5> Thanx Clack. Appreciated.
<6> np :)
<8> morning
<5> How could I ***ign a static final to a value that requires catching an exception?
<5> for instance I have a "private static final Robot myRobot = new Robot()"
<5> but I must enclose that in a try catch bracket so I tried doing
<5> private static final Robot myRobot;
<5> and then in a static { try { myRobot = new Robot(); } ... }
<5> But it doesn't want to work
<5> Do I need to create a static method and call that one?
<3> robot ?
<3> .... bite my shiny metal .....
<5> MIRKO CROCOP is the PRIDE GP CHAMPION HOOAH
<9> j2me is invite only?
<1> should i except strange things to happen if i run a swing applet from a browser and don't set up the html properly?
<1> strange things being, buttons don't appear until i roll over them and certain cl***es apear not to load
<1> buttons don't work etc
<3> what do you mean by settig up html ?
<1> special things in the <applet> tags or something
<3> no
<1> i was reading that swing required it?
<3> but you need to make that the plugin is installed
<1> i checked with a friend
<1> same thing happenend for him



<1> on windows, using IE
<3> if the plugin is installed browsers work with the usual applet tag afaik
<1> http://www.neongames.net/random/SS2/mainApplet.html
<1> if u move over the middle of the page with the mouse, buttons apear
<3> but if the plugin is not installed it will run on some old browser java which definitely will cause problems
<1> do u have the plugin installed?
<3> that looks more like programming bug (wrong usage of swing)
<1> but it works in appletviewer?
<3> hmm that might be an odd artefact
<1> hmm
<3> if you use swing incirrectly unfortunately you can can rather odd not at transparent bevahiour
<1> i did what u said, used cardlayout
<1> Jpanels for each card
<3> yes
<3> but there might lotsa things that can go wrong which i can't tell just by having quick look
<3> swing is in that sense unfortunately not programmer friendly
<3> it is a mighty api, but it has non transparent side effects
<1> learn by experiance?
<1> sorta hard to find the error when it works in appletviewr but not in browser
<3> unfortunately or read a lot to avoid a view traps
<3> i can only say the behaviour looks like a refresh problem, which _can_ be caused by inappropiate swing use
<3> same problem in opera and netscape
<1> http://javafaq.mine.nu/lookup?3&wb=true , thats the mainApplet cl*** anyway,
<1> mabye there is something very obvious
<1> what do you think?
<1> iv stripped it down to minimum and it still does it
<3> hmm dunno ic no obviois error
<3> but you can try invalidate or something to enforce a refreshing of the display
<1> but also its not displaying the backgound image
<1> and when u hit play it dosnt switch to the play screen
<1> so its like its not uploading those files/cl***es ?
<3> also strictly gui elements should be added inin the EDT (another swing tweak)
<1> EDT?
<3> event dispatching thread
<3> swing is not thread safe (for performance reasons) but that results in some odd coding (i.e. any manipulation of gui components should happen in the EDT)
<3> check the swing tutorial for that (EDT, multithreading in swing)
<1> this is strange,
<3> even though you are not explicitly doing multithreading yoursself, the system (Java) is multithreaded by default/design
<1> ok ill look into it tomorow, gota go to bed,
<1> thanks for the help
<3> so my guesses are it is EDT related and/or can be fixed with enforcing display refresh
