Thanks for the links, will check them out.

Hmmm, I was wondering whether only the 32bit version of BSF4ooRexx would work with OOo because it is only compiles as 32bit on the Mac at the moment as far as I know ? > Unfortunately, it seems according to Christian's URL to the respective > issue <http://qa.openoffice.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=92926>, that > awt/swing on MacOSX is currently not possible, because OOo does - > against Apple's documentation dating back to 2005 ! - not load the JVM > in a separate thread.

Until recently, OOo was still using an outdated and deprecated mechanism for finding the JVM in the first place, which caused it to not recognise the presence of Java on the system, as the automatic update by Apple to Java 1.6.0_22 showed. That has since been fixed, but the issue had been notified in advance by Apple, and the NeoOffice project had taken the necessary steps to avoid the problem, whereas it was only addressed on OOo when Mac users started filing bug reports that they couldn't get OOo 3.3 RCxx to function properly on their systems anymore, due to the huge dependencies on having a recognised JVM. It is symptomatic of the resource allocation problem IMHO and a shame, but there you go. Anyway, I will check out the stuff on the Wien server - a book would be a real plus !!! :-)) Alex --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [email protected] For additional commands, e-mail: [email protected]
