My thread got hijacked.... According to "Programs and Features" all versions of Java (6.27) and Java3D (1.5.2) are installed. (I assume I want the amd-64 version rather than i586? Tried both anyway) Java itself works OK. According to Java3D installation guide, all files and paths are in correct format and location. Our IT guy went over my installation and can't find anything not configured properly.
Electric v8.11 shows 3D options where I expect them on the menus but reports "Java3D not available" when I try to activate a 3D view Electric v9.00 doesn't even have 3D options on the menu. Does Electric v9.00 not only disable but block the existence of 3D menus as well if Java3D not functioning properly? This here's a government computer (Dell T7500 E5630) so I'm somewhat limited in how deep I can access the system. Is anybody running Win7 Enterprise-64 and having 3D work? or not? If so, can anyone suggest what needs to be configured differently than what's been suggested? This shouldn't be this difficult so I'm sure it's something fairly obvious and undocumented - but I can't find it. Getting time to get the rubylith out... I was away for 9 months. Did this group disable loading image files or did I forget how? I'd load a screen shot of the Window menu of Electric ... no "3D" - but it is in Preferences/Display Dave On Sep 20, 9:08 pm, Goh Mia Yong Jimmy <[email protected]> wrote: > Hi Dave, > I'm currently using electric-9.00.jar and have downloaded > j3d-1_5_2-windows-i586.exe fromhttp://java3d.java.net/binary-builds.html > From Electric, Window - 3D Window - 3D View and Test Hardware can be seen. > You can try this method. > > -----Original Message----- > From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On > Behalf Of Dave > Sent: Wednesday, 21 September, 2011 2:19 AM > To: Electric VLSI Editor > Subject: Re: 3D > > Thanks for replying but I'm having a problem even our IT person is having > trouble with. > > Neither version of Electric 9.00 - electric-9.00.jar and > electricBinary-9.00.jar - have any menu selection regarding "3D" (including > the non-existent "3D Showcase" selection under "Help") The selection does > exist on 8.11 - but Java3D still isn't working > > Library file:/C:/Electric/electricBinary-8.11.jar!/com/sun/electric/ > tool/user/help/helphtml/floatingGates.jelib read, took 0.023 seconds Checking > library 'floatingGates' for repair... library checked No errors found > =================================2================================= > Java3D is not available. > > So I have a problem with the Java3D installation (regular Java works fine > when checked at java.com) and possibly with Electric 9.00 > > Followed the instructions with Java3D (j3d-1_5_2-windows-amd64.zip. > Also tried j3d-1_5_2-windows-i586.zip). > CLASSPATH looks to be structured correctly as does PATH > > The three files are at C:\j3d-jre\lib\ext > > CLASSPATH is > .;C:\j3d-jre\lib\ext\j3dcore.jar;C:\j3d-jre\lib\ext\j3dutils.jar;C: > \j3d-jre\lib\ext\vecmath.jar > > Path is > %SystemRoot%\system32;%SystemRoot%;%SystemRoot%\System32\Wbem; > %SYSTEMROOT%\System32\WindowsPowerShell\v1.0\;C:\Program Files > \ActivIdentity\ActivClient\;C:\Program Files (x86)\ActivIdentity > \ActivClient\;C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Roxio Shared > \DLLShared\;C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Roxio Shared > \10.0\DLLShared\;C:\Program Files (x86)\Windows Imaging\;C:\Program > Files\jre6\lib\amd64;C:\Program Files (x86)\QuickTime\QTSystem\; > %CDSROOT%\tools\bin;%CDSROOT%\tools\libutil\bin;%CDSROOT%\tools\fet > \bin;%CDSROOT%\tools\pcb\bin;%CDSROOT%\tools\specctra\bin;%CDSROOT% > \tools\PSpice;%CDSROOT%\tools\PSpice\Library;%CDSROOT%\tools\Capture; > %CDSROOT%\OpenAccess\bin\win32\opt > > Tried installing in both C:\Program Files and C:\Program Files (x86). > Neither worked > > Anybody see any problems?
