Swing and Skelmir VM

Hello Everyone,
I'm using a proprietary VM (from Skelmir) on a Linux/XScale board, and I'm having problems setting up the proper Swing classes my app needs to use.
Has anyone dealt with this issue yet ?
Any direction is appreciated.
Regards,
Andre

Not a reply, abit more info:-
After some more testing,
On my sytstem is gets to the point where all the menus/menuitems are displayable...
the menuitems will drop down........
Now the fun part......,
sometimes if I click an item enough times (or sometimes even the first time) they fire off to the listeners.
Other times they just don't respond.
So it is probably a simple internal JAVA problem but most likely an environmental one.
Anyone know a forum where this might get answered (meaining it is probably an external to JAVA thing and not that this forum isn't useful).
Thanks.

Java Swing and Socket Programming

I am making a Messenger like yahoo Messenger using Swing and Socket Programming ,Multithreading .
Is this techology feasible or i should try something else.
I want to display my messenger icon on task bar as it comes when i install and run Yahoo Messenger.
Which class i should use.

I don't really have an answer to what you are asking. But I am developing the same kind of application. I am using RMI for client-server and server-server (i have distributed servers) communication and TCP/IP for client-client. So may be we might be able to help each other out. My email id is [email protected]
Are you opening a new socket for every conversation? I was wondering how to multithread a socket to reuse it for different connections, if it is possible at all.

Connect swing and J2EE

Somebody knows something...

In WEB Application i used JSP, Struts and J2EE.
But Now use swing application, and something for joing
swing and j2ee
hopefully, no business logic is in struts; only the application logic (i.e. order of screens, input type validation, etc.). If this is the case you have many options:
- direct calls to the ejb (assuming you have a service defined as an EJB)
- SOAP, SOAP-RPC, or a full web-service (as mentioned above)
- your own custom protocol over HTTP
- RMI (probably too much work; easier to just make direct EJB calls)
- JMS (probably more work than just using SOAP or HTTP)
- Socket based communication with your own custom protocol
Probably the fastest to get going is direct calls from swing to the EJB.
You'll have to re-implement your application logic; but this is fine as the swing app will probably have a different flow than the web-app.
Best of luck,
Andrew

Swings and Threads

My applet communicates with the database. To ensure that the GUI is updated in the Event-Dispatching Thread I am using a SwingWorker: in construct() the application communicates with DB, and in finished() it updates the GUI. In construct() of the SwingWorker thread I need to create a dialog box to prompt the user for an input like to chose a color or to answer yes/no.
My question is: Do I need to use invokeAndWait() to create the dialog box? The more general question is: do we use invokeLater() or SwingWorker only for GUIs that are shared by several threads or we have to use it for every swing we create after Event-Dispatching Thread started running?
Thank you

One of the fun things about Swing and its EventDispatchThread is that
doing things wrong (such as performing Swing operations from a thread
other than the EDT) is that more often than not, even though they are done
technically wrong, they will still appear to work, especially in small programs.
(In a larger sense, this applies to any multi-threaded program: things might
appear to work until the timing changes just a teensy bit...)
What's even more fun is working with someone who has previously only
done small programs and because of that, takes this approach in large programs, and then spending a large amount of time trying to figure out why
something sporadically stops working, only to trace it back to a Swing
operation being invoked from a thread other than the EDT. Fun!
You know how to do it correctly.
You know why to do it correctly.
But you choose not to. Good luck with that.

Using swing and swt together

i would like to use some of the components of swt such labels or buttons in swing as swt has better look and feel. but in all the examples i found they are using a whole set of swt api to create frames and showing them up.
Isnt there any way to add button or label of SWT in Swing. i found a method SWT_AWT.newFrame(). But it is returning a awt frame not a Swing JFrame that at the frame level. i need them at individual component level(buttons and labels).
hope u understood my problem.. any other suggestions??

Swing and SWT are two different framework. Usually, peoiple choose one and stick with it. I would not mess with mixing SWT with Swing or vice-versa. I really don't understand why you would choose to mix these two framework together. "better look and feel" is not the best answer for this. what i would look into is a look and feel for Java (like JGoodies look n feel)..and check for Swing component that pther people have made (or enhance upon the Swing library).
Stick with one framework. Your life will be much easier.
Futhermore, maintainance would be less difficult. (you only have to know one framework instead of two, plus how they interact)

Error swing and j2ee

I have an application based on on j2ee. All the logica of the program this in J�E but the part client I am doing it in swing.
I want to know if there is "something" with which I can unite the transference of information between the layer swing and j2ee.
But of all ways I am making an example fast but I have an error and not like solving it.
I am using Oracle9i, JDevelepoer 9.0.5 and the code is:
Context context = new InitialContext();
clienteBOHome = (ClienteBOHome)PortableRemoteObject.narrow(context.lookup("java:comp/env/ejb/cliente"), ClienteBOHome.class);
clienteBO = clienteBOHome.create();
colClientes = (Vector)clienteBO.listarClientes();
And the error is:
javax.naming.NoInitialContextException: Need to specify class name in environment or system property, or as an applet parameter, or in an application resource file: java.naming.factory.initial

Hi raguero,
if you want to create and use a naming context, you need a JNDI service provider. A JNDI service provider is who provides a client 2 thinks:
1) A Context Factory, which JNDI API uses tu build JNDI context
2) A service listening on an host-port
If you deploy your J2EE app under J2EE RI, you connect to JNDI service by this url:
iiop://hostname:1050 (by default)
and context factory to use is "com.sun.jndi.cosnaming.CNCtxFactory"
so you got context like this:
Properties prop=new Properties();
prop.add(Context.INITIAL_CONTEXT_FACTORY,"com.sun.jndi.cosnaming.CNCtxFactory");
prop.add(Context.PROVIDER_URL,"iiop://hostname:1050")
Context jndiContext=new InitialContext(prop);
Obvious, com.sun.jndi.cosnaming.CNCtxFactory class must be in client classpath.

Swing and VNC

hi,
has anyone seen problems with Swing via VNC? i've seen components not being redrawn and am wondering if this is because Swings redraw routines are not triggering a VNC refresh because they are not done at the same level as native OS redraw.
this sounds plausible but surely Windows knows at some level that a redraw has occured to refresh the screen content? I don't know anything about Windows API but would guess that there are events broadcast related to redraw which VNC is catching to efficiently communicate what has changed on screen?
any help appreciated,
thanks,
asjf

I have had a lot of problems with Swing and some of the other remote desktop like programs (PC Anywhere & Timbuktu to be specific). But I have always had good luck with VNC... I think they do something fundamentally different that works better. So to answer your question... no :)

Difference between AWT,Swing and swt

Hello,
I am giving a seminar about swing in which I need to point out differences between AWT,Swing and SWT(Software Widget Tool).
I have two questions:
1)I read that-A heavyweight component is one that is associated with its own native screen resource (commonly known as a peer). A lightweight component is one that "borrows" the screen resource of an ancestor-which makes it lighter.Can anybody explain What native screen resource is and how it is borrowed?
2)I read that SWT uses native widgets and how can it be better than swing?If it is in what way?

Use Swing for new projects. AWT is the rendering layer underneath Swing in many cases, and AWT provides utility things like Graphics. SWT is an alternative to Swing which used more native rendering, but actually with Java 6, Swing is using a lot of native rendering.
Fire up NetBeans and use Matisse. Build an application. Run it under Windows, and then under Linux, and then realize how great it is.

Swing and Active rendering problem

Hopefully this is the right place to post. I have a problem with active rendering and swing. Basically my code below messes up when I start rendering the swing either using repaint() or paint(g).
If I use repaint() then the gui flickers like mad and if I use paint(g) then I get deadlocks when typing into the textbox.
Any help would be great for what am I doing wrong. How do I solve this problem?

I really have no idea what your code is trying to do, but a few comments.
1) There is no need to use a BufferStrategy since Swing is double buffered automatically
2) Don't use a while loop with a Thread.sleep(). Chances are the GUI EDT is sleeping which makes the GUI unresponsive
3) Use a Swing Timer for animation.
If you need further help then you need to create a [Short, Self Contained, Compilable and Executable, Example Program (SSCCE)|http://homepage1.nifty.com/algafield/sscce.html], that demonstrates the incorrect behaviour.

Stringtokenizer, swing and memory

i lately found that the stringtokenizer eats up lots of memory, i tried to set vars to null and called sys gc quite often but they didnt seem to be of much help.
ok, here is what i was doing: i read in a quite a big txt file, about 400k lines, and then parsed each line using stringtokenizer, everything happened in while loops, lots of objects but all small ones. i had to xmx lots of memories to it in order to run it. and it became much worse when i put it into multi threaded swing app. if you are a swing expert, or stringtokenizer expert, please shed some light.

Swing and jmf

can u please have a look to the attached file
i know that this involves the jmf API but I have the feeling that has to do more with swing, thats whay I post my question here
this simple application is based on the MDI.java example of the jmf web
pages
I also added a slider and want to set the playback rate for the player from
there if possible
that is I want everytime that I move the slider and the value is biggerthan
50 the rate to be reduced according to a simple calculation that converts
the slider value to a value between 0 an1 for the rate...
so all i want to do is pass the slider value to the player everytime that
the slider changes value and this is bigger than 50
the attached file can do that only when the player starts playing the
file,,,,
after the player has started and the rate is set I cant change it even if
the slider moves
when I tried to do that from within the stateChanged method of the slider I
was getting a Nullpointer exception because of the EventDispatching thread,
so I thought to take this piece of code out of there (create the setnewrate
method in the jmframe instead),,,,but then of course doesnt work like I
would want,,,,,
do I have to register the class that implements the frame for the player as
a ChangeListener on the slider to achieve that, is something like that
possible....
I know that swing is not supposed to be thread safe, so maybe this is what
the problem is after all...any suggestions to that direction?
Can u please have a look??
I am a beginner so any help would really be very much appreciated
thanx :)

did you ever resolve this.
I may be having similar problems
I have an JMF application running under webstart. It runs ok in Java 1.3
Now I am trying to get ti to run under Java 1.4. The attached error is rather useless,
but by guess at what is happening is that the JMF control has some .awt. stuff included
but that Java 1.4 emulates .awt. in swing. But something was not set and the default does not
work.
This error messages does not appear in the 1.3 run
Any suggestions would be greatly appriatated.

Swing and AWTEventListener

Hi
I am trying to catch all ActionEvents generated in a program using an AWTEventListener following the example in http://developer.java.sun.com/developer/qow/archive/19/index.html.
I have modified the code so it looks like this
//EventTest.java
import java.awt.*;
import javax.swing.*;
import java.awt.event.*;
public class EventTest extends JFrame {
    public EventTest() {
        JButton jb1=new JButton("hello");
        getContentPane().add(jb1);
//      AWTEventListener
        getToolkit().addAWTEventListener(
         new AWTEventListener() {
             public void eventDispatched(AWTEvent e) {
              System.out.println(e+"\n");
         AWTEvent.FOCUS_EVENT_MASK |
               AWTEvent.ACTION_EVENT_MASK
    public static void main(String args[]){
     EventTest et=new EventTest();
     et.setSize(300,300);
     et.pack();
     et.show();
}The problems is that when I use a swing button(JButton) I dont get any ActionEvents but if I use an awt button it works fine!
Why is this? What is the differnes between an awt button and JButton? They both generates the same ActionEvent.
I have also tried making my own EventQueue but it only recieves low levet events like mouseEvents and keyEvents.
Any Help is very much appriciated
Thanks
Peter

why you dont try this:
jb1.getToolkit().addAWTEventListener(
     new AWTEventListener() {
          public void eventDispatched(AWTEvent e) {
               System.out.println(e.getSource().getClass().getName(
+"\n");
     AWTEvent.ACTION_EVENT_MASK     );It wont help since the eventDispatched method is never called when you press a JButton only when you press a awt Button.
Thanks for the reply
Peter

ADF Swing and EL

Hello,
I am creating a swing view for my ADF application (quite new for me, swing...) and I'd like to know how I can use localization for items such as frame title, menu item names, etc.
I'm using JDeveloper 11.1.1.3.0

Hi,
you use Java resource bundles and reference the keys in there. In this regard, ADF Swing is not different from any Java Swing example you find using Google
