Re: [Repast-interest] Update on ATI graphics cards vs java 1.4.1

[Nick C. <nic...@ve...>]

Unfortunately, this is a Java problem (actually its a problem with
certain video drivers provoked by Java) not just repast. At the moment,
on the windows side of things, I use Java 1.4.0 and everything works
fine. With 1.4.1 all my Java gui applications lock up the system when
they exit. Apparently, all this will be fixed in 1.4.2 which should be
available this winter. 
 
On the up side, I can run 1.4.1 with no problems; on the down side, gui
stuff is faster on windows with 1.4.1.
