To complete the Free GUI Toolkits set I also added a FreeAWTTestApps page. Also linked from the frontpage now. http://developer.classpath.org/mediation/FreeAWTTestApps Currently it only lists MegaMek which is a bit big for a simple test application. So additional simpler Free AWT Test Applications wanted! It might be interesting if we also had pages for test applications that use Generics or Graphics2D explicitly so people can concentrate on those if they want. BTW. If you add new applications please do add a little more info then just a reference to some homepage. We want these pages to be good starting points for developers wanting a little hacking challenge. So please include specific download, build and run instructions whenever possible. The FreeSwingTestApps page has a lot of references without any indication what precisely should be tested or how at the moment.

When I initially wrote the EmbeddedWindow stuff it was meant as an official extension and not meant to be kept private for all time. We should have some offical interface to provide this functionality. I vote for keeping this interface stable. There are clearly much more usecases then gcjwebplugin and Eclipse AWT/Swing integration for this.

I had a funny idea about this recently -- wouldn't it be cool if Eclipse had a built-in 'quick fix' to fix the most common uses of 'com.sun.*'? In particular I'm thinking this could be done for the Base64 encoder thing that we run into so often. Tom ___ Classpath mailing list Classpath@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/classpath

We do provide similar functionality with gnu.java.awt.EmbeddedWindow which gcjwebplugin uses to embed itself in Firefox.

Re: FreeSWTTestApps page added to wiki
The Eclipse code that uses the XEmbeddedFrame is most likely the SWT_AWT bridge. This class is a platform-dependent hack that's used to embed AWT/Swing within SWT apps, and vice versa. See: http://help.eclipse.org/help31/index.jsp?topic=/org.eclipse.platform.doc.isv/reference/api/org/eclipse/swt/awt/SWT_AWT.html It'd be interesting to see how Classpath could provide APIs that allow similar function to SWT - as this function can not be achived using the public Java api. - Jeff Myers On 11/22/05, Meskauskas Audrius <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Egon Willighagen wrote: > > >Not implemented [need JDK 1.5 or greater] (java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: > >sun/awt/X11/XEmbeddedFrame) > > > > > > > The problem is, the application is using the proprietary Sun class from > the protected sun.* namespace.

(Please cc me, as I am not yet subscribed) Hi all, I'm attempting to setup a live CD for chemoinformatics, which will include Java software too. I already tested Jmol and JChemPaint with jamvm and classpath 0.18 (see FreeSwingTestApps in wiki), which doesn't go that bad actually, though not up to production level yet. Yesterday a bio-/chemoinformatics platform project was announced: Bioclipse[1]. It's eclipse based, so normally no Swing stuff. I was able to boot the program with jamvm and classpath 0.18, but added a new 'view' for 2D and 3D rendering of molecular structures did not work with this problem: Unhandled event loop exception Reason: Not implemented [need JDK 1.5 or greater] (java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: sun/awt/X11/XEmbeddedFrame) I think this comes from the Eclipse RCP stuff itself, though I don't have a full stacktrace at this moment. Anyway, I added a FreeSWTTestApps to the Classpath wiki using the same setup as the FreeSwingTestApps page.
