Re: [JGB-general] Unable to run tutorial simple window

[Francois B. <fb...@us...>]

Hello again, Stelar,

Did you use the same command line ?  Actually, did you pass the --show
argument to the BuildWindowFromXmlFile class ?  Notice the example
command line:
C:\jgb>bin\runexample.bat --show mywindow.xml

The --show parameter asks the BuildWindowFromXmlFile to show the window
on screen.  It actually calls setVisible() on the value that will be
returned from Builder.

Hope that helps !
