Chris Bartlett commented on PIVOT-700:
--------------------------------------
I must have missed this ticket, but recently implemented something similar via
a new startup property for DesktopApplicationContext
(--preserveSplashScreen=true)
The host frame will not be made visible if all 3 conditions are met
- the 'preserveSplashScreen' property is set
- its value is 'true'
- java.awt.SplashScreen.getSplashScreen() != null
The host frame can be made visible later using something like ...
// Display from Application#startup(Display, Map<String,String>)
java.awt.Window window = display.getHostWindow();
// Making the host frame visible will close the SplashScreen.
window.setVisible(true);
window.toFront();
See
http://pivot.apache.org/2.0/docs/api/org/apache/pivot/wtk/DesktopApplicationContext.html#setFullScreen(boolean)
http://download.oracle.com/javase/6/docs/api/java/awt/SplashScreen.html#getSplashScreen()
I can submit a patch when I'm back at my dev machine tomorrow.
> SplashScreen control
> --------------------

> Key: PIVOT-700
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PIVOT-700
> Project: Pivot
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Affects Versions: 2.0
> Reporter: Bojan Vucinic
> Fix For: 2.1
>
>
> I've tried to get hold of the SplashScreen that I've defined in my
> manifest.mf file:
> >Manifest-Version: 1.0
> >X-COMMENT: Main-Class will be added automatically by build
> >SplashScreen-Image: com/macad/enbal/resources/welcome.jpg
> But once the DesktopApplicationContext takes over, it is impossible to get
> the SplashScreen (null pointer exception is thrown).
> Could you extend the API so that we can show the SplashScreen, and close it
> once all the init actions have been finished just before we open the
> application window as the nameless gray pivot window is displayed quite a
> long time.
