O.K. Problem solved!! Many thanks to Amancio and Nate for their
invaluable help in tracking this down. I just replaced fastjavac as
suggested by Amancio and this fixed the importing of swing-1.0.1 into
JWS-2.0a. As I mentioned in an earlier e-mail in this thread, I had
already inserted the following into the startup_wrapper for jws (note that
this is something that was changed by Sun in the startup_wrapper that
comes with JWS-2.0a, and which I added by hand to Amancio's
startup_wrapper modified for FreeBSD):
max_heap="-mx128m"
and
java_opts="${max_heap} ${initial_heap} ${c_stack_size} ${java_opts}"
Note that this max_heap limit is larger than specified by Amancio in his
suggestion below. I suppose your mileage may vary on this one on a
project by project basis...
Since my startup_wrapper now diverges from Amancio's original
startup_wrapper due to additional suggestions from Nate and since a
fastjavac shell script now replaces the solaris binary version of
fastjavac I could post a tar.gz encapulating these changes to this list
for one of you to incorporate into jwspatch.tar.gz, if you like.
To summarize:
1) I installed jdk1.1.5.V98-2-25.tar.gz as per http://www.freebsd.org/java/
2) I installed JWS-2.0 as per http://www.freebsd.org/java/
3) I found that locate_dirs in jwspatch.tar.gz was corrupted. The first
line was "2" and need to be changed to "#!/bin/sh"
4) I found I had to tweak startup_wrapper for jws as follows to get
JWS-2.0 to run:
change:
javaloc="${_SS_JDK_HOME}/bin/${V_ARCH}/${THREADS_FLAG}_threads"
to:
javaloc="${_SS_JDK_HOME}/bin"
5) I installed the JWS-2.0a extension available from Sun
6) I further tweaked startup_wrapper to as follows:
add:
max_heap="-mx128m"
change:
java_opts="${initial_heap} ${c_stack_size} ${java_opts}"
to:
java_opts="${max_heap} ${initial_heap} ${c_stack_size} ${java_opts}"
7) I Installed swing-1.0.1 from Sun
8) I replaced fastjavac with:
#!/bin/sh
javac $*
9) I could then import swing-1.0.1 widgets into the GUI palette in
JWS-2.0a!!
Conclusions: I am now running JWS-2.0a with swing-1.0.1!!!
O.K. let the development begin...
Thanks again,
Tom
