Hi there.
1.1b10 worked well when running on gcj once we sorted out the build issues. I’m happy that 1.1b11 contains fixes for our build issues but, unfortunately, jogl apps appear to deadlock on startup (after initial window creation).
I haven’t looked into it much yet. I’ll try to in the next few days. I just thought I’d mention it here first.

Everything works fine on all of the platforms we test on with the Sun or Apple JDKs. Please generate some stack traces from the hung applications and file a bug using the JOGL Issue Tracker. The only major changes in 1.1 b11 were related to the GLJPanel and the Mac OS X platform, so please try to make sure first that the hangs aren’t due to changes in GCJ or Classpath.
This has been tracked down to a recent regression in GNU Classpath. Sorry for the distraction! Now, to fix it…
And it’s fixed now. 1.1b11 appears to work well. I have a Fedora Core RPM now that should work with both gcj (using ahead-of-time compiled code) or traditional JVMs (using the .jar file). I’ll try to find a nice home for it (Fedora Extras possibly).
Thanks - AG
