Re: [plexil-support] Plexil Viewer not working correctly in 4.5.0RC2?

[Dalal, M. (ARC-TI)[S. INC] <mic...@na...>]

Hi Martin,

Please try the latest Plexil revision 5108 for a fix to the key bug that prevented plan execution from the viewer, and other fixes.  We hope to do even more soon.  And a belated thanks for your patch file.  We used a variation of your socket fix, though didn't have luck with the SwingUtilities change; we worked with the newest revision though.

Best,
Mike

    Hi Michael,
    I was able to fix the problem with the not closing window and the failed
    connection to the viewer.
    But I had to revert to SVN revision 5023 and change a few lines of code.
    And I didn't test it very much. So I'm not sure if it is a good or bad
    change but it works for me and maybe it can help someone else.
    
    Best,
    Martin

This is how we have been running PLEXIL and debugging plans.  At the moment we don't have the budget and staff needed to work on the PLEXIL viewer.  Hopefully we will at some point, but in the mean time you are encouraged to debug/improve the Viewer yourself if you are so inclined.  We would welcome any fixes or enhancements to it from the PLEXIL community.  We hope that PLEXIL otherwise meets your needs.
