Timer field replaced by function call text

[ketemphor]

Hey, I just loaded the jnlp file on my laptop and the left-hand field that normally holds the time displays the following instead:
java.awt.peer.WindowPeer.updateAlwaysOnTop()

If I hover over it and scroll the mouse wheel, I can temporarily see the times and previous tasks as I'm used to, but when it goes back to 'idle' the same text shows up again.

Running Java SE 7 build 1.7.0-ea-b119 on XP SP3.

The right-click menu popup is also vertically compressed.

I've tried deleting the cache and redownloading, running in online and offline mode to no avail.

Sorry, just noticed a mistake in my post, I meant the right-hand field with the timer, not left.

Choose "view all timecards" from the menu, then locate the file called "stderr.txt".  Does that file contain any error information?

[ketemphor]

Sorry about the long delay in replying.  I didn't have to use this laptop for some time and the issue slipped my mind.

stderr.log contains multiple entries of the following:

java.lang.NoSuchMethodException: java.awt.peer.WindowPeer.updateAlwaysOnTop()
    at java.lang.Class.getMethod(Unknown Source)
    at tracker.TimeTracker$24.run(TimeTracker.java:431)
    at java.util.TimerThread.mainLoop(Unknown Source)
    at java.util.TimerThread.run(Unknown Source)

Maybe the problem is in the file TimeTacker.java:

                    boolean is16 = "1.6".equals(System.getProperty("java.specification.version")); //$NON-NLS-1$ //$NON-NLS-2$
                    if (is16)
                    {
                        WindowPeer.class.getMethod("setAlwaysOnTop", Boolean.TYPE).invoke(wp, true); //$NON-NLS-1$
                    }
                    else
                    {
                        WindowPeer.class.getMethod("updateAlwaysOnTop").invoke(wp); //$NON-NLS-1$
                    }

You java version is 7 aka 1.7 and probably the special case for 1.6 is also needed.

You're right.  I have made the change you suggested. Thanks!

[Russell Black]

Let me know if it is still not working for you

Hey Russel,

I would love to fix this issue where do I find TimeTracker.java so I can edit it? I'm running windows 7 64x

Thanks!

Follow the "Code" link at the top of this page.

Alright, I downloaded the tinytimetracker package that has the src, etc. I went into TimeTracker.java file but what should I update in it? Something like this?

boolean is17 = "1.7".equals(System.getProperty("java.specification.version")); //$NON-NLS-1$ //$NON-NLS-2$
                    if (is17)
                    {
                        WindowPeer.class.getMethod("setAlwaysOnTop", Boolean.TYPE).invoke(wp, true); //$NON-NLS-1$
                    }
                    else
                    {
                        WindowPeer.class.getMethod("updateAlwaysOnTop").invoke(wp); //$NON-NLS-1$
                    }

After I have made the update, what do I do? Do I then run tinytimetracker.jnlp in the root dir and it will run with the applied changes? Any detailed information on steps to fix this problem would be much appreciated!

Thanks!

I have pushed out a fix for this. Try restarting tiny-time-tracker and it should update to the latest jar with the fix.
