I am trying to get an app setup to use webstart. Basically what I did was look at the demos jnlp files and and made modifications to them.
However I keep running into problems. On windows I get permissions errors because GLCanvas is trying to add a shutdown hook.
On OSX the error is different but I think it is the same problem.
The app is one jar do I need to sign it, even though I doesn’t do anything other than call jogl methods ?
There’s a bug in the most recent JOGL beta build that’s been fixed in the CVS repository. We’ll try to get a new beta build out soon.
But the demos work ? I just grabbed all the jogl files from that where referenced in the jnlp files.
https://jogl.dev.java.net/webstart/jogl.jar
https://jogl.dev.java.net/webstart/jogl-natives-win32.jar
https://jogl.dev.java.net/webstart/jogl-natives-solsparc.jar
https://jogl.dev.java.net/webstart/jogl-natives-linux.jar
https://jogl.dev.java.net/webstart/jogl-natives-macosx.jar
They work when launched from the local disk, but not when a SecurityManager is installed as is the case when they’re launched with Java Web Start.
Ok very strange. When I wrote my orginal post. I had no problems running the demos from webstart. No I can’t. Weird.
If I got the latest from CVS it should work ?
