Summary: CLASS line tag DOMAIN:x broken

Initial Comment:
According to the PCGen documentation the 
TAG "DOMAIN:x" in a class should force that class to 
preselect the named domain.  It is supposed to allow 
for PRExxx tags in [] following the domain to 
restrict it's application.

If added directly to the rsrd base classes cleric, 
all it does is add the domain to the cleric's 
choosable domains.  If qualified with a PREDIETY tag, 
it fails to work at all.

In neither case does this actually force the domain 
to be selected for the character.

Summary: 5.8.0RC6 and RC7 crash during starup in MacOS X Tiger

Initial Comment:
I just migrated to MacOS X Tiger and I tried to run
PCGen from an installation (RC6) done under Panther,
and it crashed after showing the splash screen. 
Thinking it was an error due to the migration, I
deleted the old copy, and downloaded the newest version
(RC7).  Because this version hadn't been configured, I
got the configuraton file path screen, but it crashed
shortly after hitting Ok.  I then executed it from bash
and got a whole slew of errors.  I have attached these
in a separate log file.

Hmmm... first, thanks for the compliments!

However, Java 5 is downloadable for all consumers on the
apple website.  I looked at the code you are using for mac
customization, and you _can_ do things to fix this!

I took a look at the code, and suggest the following as a
potential fix (note that I haven't tested this, but it
should work).

CHANGE (old code):
		// Fixes for Mac OS X look-and-feel menu problems.
		// sk4p 12 Dec 2002
		if (System.getProperty("os.name").equals("Mac OS X"))
		{
		
System.setProperty("com.apple.mrj.application.growbox.intrudes",
"false");
		
System.setProperty("com.apple.mrj.application.live-resize",
"false");
			System.setProperty("com.apple.macos.smallTabs", "true");
			System.setProperty("apple.laf.useScreenMenuBar", "true");
		}

TO (new code)

    static {
	if (System.getProperty("os.name").equals("Mac OS X")) {
		
System.setProperty("com.apple.mrj.application.growbox.intrudes",
"false");

System.setProperty("com.apple.mrj.application.live-resize",
"false");
			System.setProperty("com.apple.macos.smallTabs", "true");
String jver = System.getProperty("java.version");
System.setProperty(jver.startsWith("1.3")?
  "com.apple.macos.useScreenMenuBar"
: "apple.laf.useScreenMenuBar", "true");

}


This in effect will move the property setters to the static
initializer.  I suspect the problem is that you are setting
the use of the screen menu bar AFTER you have set the look
and feel UI and are initializing components.  I remember
from some past work that that may lead to problems with your
menu bar.

No promises, but you hopefully won't have to use the hack I
suggested some time back.  That was not intended as a long
term fix, just as an emergency repair to get it out there.

Let me know what you discover, and if you need more help, I
may be coaxed into doing the fix if needed :)

Right, we found that out researching this issue. Java 1.5 is sill only in prerelease 
on the Mac, you have to hunt down the developers package to get it. Another 
complication is that 1.5 will only ever be available for Tiger (Mac OS 10.4) which 
is a paid upgrade. There will probably be a signifigant number of users on older 
systems for a while.

Just as a further note Tod did some extra research for me:

Using Java 1.4.2 (the default version on Tiger) it has the
reported problem.  Making the change that xtianstone
suggests fixes the problem.

Using Java 1.5 the problem does not show up.  PCGen works
fine after installation.

So I guess if we ever go 1.5+ only we can avoid having that
fix for the Mac Installer - K

As I mentioned before, the problem is the menu order with
the apple.laf.screenMenuBar option.  You can temporarily fix
this problem by disabling it in the info.plist settings by
changing the following  from "true" to "false" as I did below.

		<dict>
			<key>apple.laf.useScreenMenuBar</key>
			<string>false</string>
		</dict>

This app fails with 1.5 and 1.4 on Tiger because something
has changed in Tiger with the mac LAF api.  The effective
error is in the screenMenuBar here:
java.lang.ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException: 5 > 4
I suspect that you are inserting an element to instead of
appending the menu to the end of the menu bar.  However, I
have not looked at the code so I cannot offer more insight
than that.

IF the .jar is working then it must be the process used to mac the Mac 
package. We will probably need to update to the developer tools for Tiger.

There's normaly no real difference btween running the Mac package app or 
the .jar so just use that for now until we can get this worked out.

As for the priority, don't worry about it, we are at the end of our 
development cycle and at this point we are being rather strick with it. 
During the early part of the cycle it's not as strict. 

You'll have to forgive us for this particular bug since it's not directly related 
to the program and since Tiger was just released we really havn't had time 
to test on it. 

We do appreciate everyone who takes the time to troubleshoot and report 
back, thanks, we'll get this worked out.

a) I am using the canned installer.
b) Copying the jar file out of the app folder worked.  It is
apparently just a problem with whatever is used to package
it into the app folder.
c) Currently downloading J2SE 5.0.  Will get back to you on
that.
d) You guys should post a guide as to how to post bugs.  You
state "only ... can declare priority/group," yet there is
nothing anywhere that states this (or maybe I should say,
nothing anywhere the general user will look).  I gave it a
p9 as, too me, an application not loading is a critical bug.
 It doesn't matter if it was caused by the installer or some
actual code, my CSE instructors still would have failed the
project for not running.  As for the group, "To be Fixed for
5.8" is the closest group to 5.8.0RCn.  If you don't want
users classifing bugs, don't put the options to do so on here.

Another question: are you running the general PCGen download or are you 
using the Mac specific installer?

It may be that the development apps used to make the installer need to be 
updated. Some one posted that they were able to get things running be 
copying the .jar app out of the Mac app package like so:

Here's the fix:

After installing, open the "PCGen 5.8.0" folder in Applications. Right-or-
Control click the PCGen app.  select "Show package Contents". double 
click on "Contents", then "Resources", and then "Java".  Drag the 
"pcgen.jar" file out into the "PGGen 5.8.0" folder (the same one that the 
"PCGen" app is in).  Delete the "PCGen" app.  Double-click on pcgen.jar.

If this works then we can narrow things down to the installer making 
process, I'll send a note to Conor and see what he thinks.

Try java 5 as eddy suggested please and see if that works.

Lowering priority and assigning to Devon. In this stage of
the game, only he can declare which bugs are p9 worthy and
slated for 5.8 stable.

And please report back of Eddy's suggestion works or not.

nothing anywhere that states this (or maybe I should say,
nothing anywhere the general user will look).  I gave it a
p9 as, too me, an application not loading is a critical bug.
 It doesn't matter if it was caused by the installer or some
actual code, my CSE instructors still would have failed the
project for not running.  As for the group, "To be Fixed for
5.8" is the closest group to 5.8.0RCn.  If you don't want
users classifing bugs, don't put the options to do so on here.

Another question: are you running the general PCGen download or are you 
using the Mac specific installer?

It may be that the development apps used to make the installer need to be 
updated. Some one posted that they were able to get things running be 
copying the .jar app out of the Mac app package like so:

Here's the fix:

After installing, open the "PCGen 5.8.0" folder in Applications. Right-or-
Control click the PCGen app.  select "Show package Contents". double 
click on "Contents", then "Resources", and then "Java".  Drag the 
"pcgen.jar" file out into the "PGGen 5.8.0" folder (the same one that the 
"PCGen" app is in).  Delete the "PCGen" app.  Double-click on pcgen.jar.

If this works then we can narrow things down to the installer making 
process, I'll send a note to Conor and see what he thinks.

Looks to me that tiger's swing implementation is busted. 
Try java 5 as eddy suggested please and see if that works.

Leaving at p8 until we can see the results of testing with
java 5

Lowering priority and assigning to Devon. In this stage of
the game, only he can declare which bugs are p9 worthy and
slated for 5.8 stable.

And please report back of Eddy's suggestion works or not.

You might try the Java 5 release for Tiger, it does not come with the 
Installer but you can download it from this link:

Hm, that would put the error firmly in the area of code
bug.

The program is not reseting some VAR's from character
to character.

From Devon:

This is not as bad as it looks.   The program isn't keeping
around vars from another pc - it's not flushing ui elements.
Probably what is going on is this:

The pane in the Preview pane is using pc.getSerial() to see
if the pc has been updated.  A higher level character will
inherently have a higher serial number then a lower level
character.  if the pane is not checking to see if the pc has
changed, and is only checking serial number - the lower
level character will never trigger a pane refresh.  
in order to fix this, all I need to know is what box it is
in the character sheet, then it's a 10 second fix.

This problem is one you can work around by simply closing
the program and restarting it beteween characters.

Although, come to think of it, I wonder ...

If you have two character with the same classes (and
therefore the
same VAR's) with different levels would it use the highest
for every
character open? That would cause a problem when opening a
group/party with characters with the same classes and
varying levels. Could it affect gmgen?

Summary: 5.8.0RC6 and RC7 crash during starup in MacOS X Tiger

Initial Comment:
I just migrated to MacOS X Tiger and I tried to run
PCGen from an installation (RC6) done under Panther,
and it crashed after showing the splash screen. 
Thinking it was an error due to the migration, I
deleted the old copy, and downloaded the newest version
(RC7).  Because this version hadn't been configured, I
got the configuraton file path screen, but it crashed
shortly after hitting Ok.  I then executed it from bash
and got a whole slew of errors.  I have attached these
in a separate log file.

Just as a further note Tod did some extra research for me:

Using Java 1.4.2 (the default version on Tiger) it has the
reported problem.  Making the change that xtianstone
suggests fixes the problem.

Using Java 1.5 the problem does not show up.  PCGen works
fine after installation.

So I guess if we ever go 1.5+ only we can avoid having that
fix for the Mac Installer - K

As I mentioned before, the problem is the menu order with
the apple.laf.screenMenuBar option.  You can temporarily fix
this problem by disabling it in the info.plist settings by
changing the following  from "true" to "false" as I did below.

This app fails with 1.5 and 1.4 on Tiger because something
has changed in Tiger with the mac LAF api.  The effective
error is in the screenMenuBar here:
java.lang.ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException: 5 > 4
I suspect that you are inserting an element to instead of
appending the menu to the end of the menu bar.  However, I
have not looked at the code so I cannot offer more insight
than that.

IF the .jar is working then it must be the process used to mac the Mac 
package. We will probably need to update to the developer tools for Tiger.

There's normaly no real difference btween running the Mac package app or 
the .jar so just use that for now until we can get this worked out.

As for the priority, don't worry about it, we are at the end of our 
development cycle and at this point we are being rather strick with it. 
During the early part of the cycle it's not as strict. 

You'll have to forgive us for this particular bug since it's not directly related 
to the program and since Tiger was just released we really havn't had time 
to test on it. 

We do appreciate everyone who takes the time to troubleshoot and report 
back, thanks, we'll get this worked out.

a) I am using the canned installer.
b) Copying the jar file out of the app folder worked.  It is
apparently just a problem with whatever is used to package
it into the app folder.
c) Currently downloading J2SE 5.0.  Will get back to you on
that.
d) You guys should post a guide as to how to post bugs.  You
state "only ... can declare priority/group," yet there is
nothing anywhere that states this (or maybe I should say,
nothing anywhere the general user will look).  I gave it a
p9 as, too me, an application not loading is a critical bug.
 It doesn't matter if it was caused by the installer or some
actual code, my CSE instructors still would have failed the
project for not running.  As for the group, "To be Fixed for
5.8" is the closest group to 5.8.0RCn.  If you don't want

Another question: are you running the general PCGen download or are you 
using the Mac specific installer?

It may be that the development apps used to make the installer need to be 
updated. Some one posted that they were able to get things running be 
copying the .jar app out of the Mac app package like so:

Here's the fix:

After installing, open the "PCGen 5.8.0" folder in Applications. Right-or-
Control click the PCGen app.  select "Show package Contents". double 
click on "Contents", then "Resources", and then "Java".  Drag the 
"pcgen.jar" file out into the "PGGen 5.8.0" folder (the same one that the 
"PCGen" app is in).  Delete the "PCGen" app.  Double-click on pcgen.jar.

If this works then we can narrow things down to the installer making 
process, I'll send a note to Conor and see what he thinks.

IF the .jar is working then it must be the process used to mac the Mac 
package. We will probably need to update to the developer tools for Tiger.

There's normaly no real difference btween running the Mac package app or 
the .jar so just use that for now until we can get this worked out.

As for the priority, don't worry about it, we are at the end of our 
development cycle and at this point we are being rather strick with it. 
During the early part of the cycle it's not as strict. 

You'll have to forgive us for this particular bug since it's not directly related 
to the program and since Tiger was just released we really havn't had time 
to test on it. 

We do appreciate everyone who takes the time to troubleshoot and report 
back, thanks, we'll get this worked out.

a) I am using the canned installer.
b) Copying the jar file out of the app folder worked.  It is
apparently just a problem with whatever is used to package
it into the app folder.
c) Currently downloading J2SE 5.0.  Will get back to you on
that.
d) You guys should post a guide as to how to post bugs.  You
state "only ... can declare priority/group," yet there is
nothing anywhere that states this (or maybe I should say,
nothing anywhere the general user will look).  I gave it a
p9 as, too me, an application not loading is a critical bug.
 It doesn't matter if it was caused by the installer or some
actual code, my CSE instructors still would have failed the
project for not running.  As for the group, "To be Fixed for
5.8" is the closest group to 5.8.0RCn.  If you don't want
users classifing bugs, don't put the options to do so on here.

Another question: are you running the general PCGen download or are you 
using the Mac specific installer?

It may be that the development apps used to make the installer need to be 
updated. Some one posted that they were able to get things running be 
copying the .jar app out of the Mac app package like so:

Here's the fix:

After installing, open the "PCGen 5.8.0" folder in Applications. Right-or-
Control click the PCGen app.  select "Show package Contents". double 
click on "Contents", then "Resources", and then "Java".  Drag the 
"pcgen.jar" file out into the "PGGen 5.8.0" folder (the same one that the 
"PCGen" app is in).  Delete the "PCGen" app.  Double-click on pcgen.jar.

If this works then we can narrow things down to the installer making 
process, I'll send a note to Conor and see what he thinks.

Looks to me that tiger's swing implementation is busted. 
Try java 5 as eddy suggested please and see if that works.

Leaving at p8 until we can see the results of testing with
java 5

Lowering priority and assigning to Devon. In this stage of
the game, only he can declare which bugs are p9 worthy and
slated for 5.8 stable.

And please report back of Eddy's suggestion works or not.

You might try the Java 5 release for Tiger, it does not come with the 
Installer but you can download it from this link:
