1.5 error / current windows binaries

Engines, Libraries and Tools JInput
#1

Hello!

I started using jinput today and ran into a probably well known bug: while the little test program runs well with java version 1.4, 1.5/5.0 gives me:

Exception in thread “main” java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: IllegalName: net/java/games/input/DirectInputEnvironmentPlugin

I tried to get up-to-date binaries for windows, but the last nightly build seems to have happened in may. Have there been no changes since then?
(Where I live there is approximately one night for each day.)

Thanks in advance!

I thought I made a fix for this.

Its a minor porblem in how the plugin manager in utils handles the classname. Before 1.4 it allowed slashes, now it only allows dots.

(im told there was somem obscure security bug that requried this change to fix.)

Anyway its easy enough to fix. I’ll try to find time to take a loo katt he latest source upload and make sure its fixed there.

OH.

And in may we lost our builds person so the automatic build system has been broken for awhile. I cant promise you when it will get fixed but we are aware its a problem :frowning:

Many apologies.

The class loader problem might already be fixed in the sources, which I never tried. I just downloaded and tried the binaries.

Yep, I double checked and the fix is in the sources.

I assume since you didnt post again building those solved your problem. ;D
