#14 use XULRunner runtime in dj lib

[Mr Lee]

Hi Christopher,

I wanna use Xulrunner runtime in my project. I do it in some steps below but not work.

• Download xulrunner runtime in mozilla site (http://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/xulrunner/releases/34.0b2/) and put xulrunner folder in "C:\xulrunner"

• Set system properties in java code

System.setProperty("-Dnativeswing.webbrowser.runtime", "xulrunner");
System.setProperty("-Dnativeswing.webbrowser.xulrunner.home", "C:\xulrunner");
NativeInterface.open();
String str_url = "http://ip-address-here:8080/contact_online/login.jsp";
JWebBrowser webBrowser = new JWebBrowser(JWebBrowser.useXULRunnerRuntime());

• but Exception here:

java.lang.RuntimeException: java.lang.reflect.InvocationTargetException
...
Caused by: java.lang.reflect.InvocationTargetException
...
Caused by: org.eclipse.swt.SWTError: No more handles [Could not detect registered XULRunner to use]

at org.eclipse.swt.browser.Browser.<init>(Unknown Source)
at chrriis.dj.nativeswing.swtimpl.components.core.NativeWebBrowser.createControl(NativeWebBrowser.java:431)

What's wrong in my steps? Do you have any suggestion for my issue?
This code run with xulrunnuer install version 1.9.x, but it's only matching with Firefox 5.0.

Hi,

You should either call your program with:
java -jar xxxxxx "-Dnativeswing.webbrowser.runtime=xulrunner" "-Dnativeswing.webbrowser.xulrunner.home=C:\xulrunner"

or set the system properties in code like this:
System.setProperty("nativeswing.webbrowser.runtime", "xulrunner");
System.setProperty("nativeswing.webbrowser.xulrunner.home", "C:\xulrunner");

Hope this helps,
-Christopher

Hi Christopher,

Thank you so much.
I set system property but its just work on some Xulrunner's version xulrunner-10.0.en-US.win32, xulrunner-24.0.en-US.win32. Other version error with missing dll or something...

So, The newest DJ Native Swing (DJNativeSwing-SWT-1-0-3) compatible with newest Xulrunner (version 34.0b3)?

I wanna use Handling the Custom URI Scheme in Xulrunner but its not work (http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ie/aa767914(v=vs.85).aspx). So, the xulrunner not support for this. It look like the hyper link on web for skype or yahoo msg.

Thanks,

Hi,

DJ Native Swing integrates native web browser using the SWT library. Updating SWT to more recent version allows to support newer versions of XULRunner.

Hope this helps,
