Re: [Java-gnome-developer] Problem running glade program

[Benjamin P. J. <bp...@te...>]

David,

I was the one who put up the little Glade example. I know that it is far
from finished but I realized that there were no other useful examples
anywhere.... well: that's why I thought: better my more or less useless
stuff than nothing.... :-)

There are some good tutorials on how to actually RUN java-gnome
programs. For the simple example I've put online you need the gnome
libraries!

You can start the example like this:
  JNI=3D/usr/lib/jni
  CP=3D/usr/share/java
  CLASSPATH=3D$CLASSPATH:$CP/gnome2.8.jar:$CP/gtk2.4.jar:$CP/glade2.4.jar
  LD_LIBRARY_PATH=3D$JNI CLASSPATH=3D$CLASSPATH java SimpleGladeExample

My $JNI (/usr/lib/jni) contains the files:
libgnomejava2.8.so
libgtkjava2.4.so
libgladejava2.4.so

My $CP (/usr/share/java) contains:
gnome2.8.jar
gtk2.4.jar
glade2.8.jar


If you're missing any of the files (or you're using much older versions)
the program will likely be failing. If I find the time I'll put up an
example that's a bit simpler and won't utilize the gnome libraries....

Oh... and by the way. Mark was right: I had so much trouble converting
"<" and ">" that I accidentaly left some bugs in the example... dunno
how the two 'static's got lost :-)


Have fun.
  Benjamin

PS:
By the way: if any of you guys who really know how to handle java-gnome
(see... I just started using it and really dunno much 'bout it, yet!)
could have a look at what I wrote concerning threads?
http://java-gnome.sourceforge.net/cgi-bin/bin/view/Main/MultiThreaded
Just in case that's stuuupid, too :-)
