JOGLAppletLauncher and DirectDraw disabling message

Hi,

Testing again a JOGL applet with latest JRE (1.6) and jogl 1.1 rc2, the noddraw flag is never set (the message always come back at every browser restart, even if I reply yes)

I haven’t been able to test it with an 1.5 version yet to see if if still works there.

can anyone test the jogl applet demo and report this behaviour here ? (https://jogl-demos.dev.java.net/applettest.html )

I’ve seen this behavior when you don’t have an entry in your deployment.properties file for the current JRE, which seems to happen sometimes during JRE upgrades. This seems to be cleared up if you open and close the Java Control Panel. Can you try this and see whether it clears up the problem? We should probably add more logic to the JOGLAppletLauncher to force installation of the appropriate property for the currently running JRE if we didn’t find it listed in the deployment.properties.

yes, opening the control panel fixed the problem

(however, doing this cannot be expected from an end-user)
