[gl4java-usergroup] osx & swing problems

[Daniel B. <db...@if...>]

Hi all,

I trying to get the swing demo files to run under Mac OS X 10.1.3. The 
gl4java Version is 2.7.2.0. which I downloaded from Gerard Ziemski page. 
At the moment, these demos and all the other examples that I found which 
make use of either GLAnimPanel or GLJPanel produce the follwing 
exception:

An exception is thrown, while creating a GL context

java.lang.ClassCastException: 
com.apple.mrj.internal.awt.basepeers.VContainerPeer
java.lang.ClassCastException: 
com.apple.mrj.internal.awt.basepeers.VContainerPeer
...etc...

I have no clue whether this is a problem of apple's java implementation 
or of gl4java. I would really like to include some opengl functionality 
in my visualization program which makes heavy use of swing. For this 
reason I appreciate any tips and tricks how to get gl4java and swing to 
work under Mac OS X.

Thanks in advance!
