Jogl/Jogamp on Java 9

Well you know,
If the code looks like:
 public static void main(String[] args) {
        GraphicsConfiguration config =
                SimpleUniverse.getPreferredConfiguration();
    }
we will need more than
jogamp-fat.jar (right?)
In fact;
 final GraphicsEnvironment
                localGraphicsEnvironment
                = getLocalGraphicsEnvironment();
        final GraphicsDevice
                defaultScreenDevice
                = localGraphicsEnvironment.getDefaultScreenDevice();
        GraphicsConfiguration c[] = defaultScreenDevice
                .getConfigurations();
        for (int i = 0; i < c.length; i++) {
            System.out.println("gc:" + i + ":" + c[i]);
        }
        GraphicsConfiguration gc  = c[0];
        Canvas3D c3d = new Canvas3D(gc);
        System.out.println("done");
needs more than jogamp-fat.jar
Don't you need
vecmath.jar j3dutils.jar j3dcore.jar, at the very least?
If I have the correct versions of these things, what I get appears below.
Thanks!

An inability to construct a Canvas3D is a bit of a show stopper, isn't it?
Thanks!

Strictly follow the instructions of the Java3D user's guide I wrote:
https://gouessej.wordpress.com/2012/08/01/java-3d-est-de-retour-java-3d-is-back/
It mentions the necessary JARs. jogamp-fat.jar contains the necessary JARs for JOGL, JOCL, JOAL and GlueGen. Yes, you need to use the JARs of Java3D too, they are mentioned here:
https://gouessej.wordpress.com/2012/08/01/java-3d-est-de-retour-java-3d-is-back/#commandline

Your source code works with Java 1.8. The JogAmp community isn't responsible for the regressions within AWT in Java 1.9 under OS X. You can still use Java 1.8 in the meantime.

Edit.: It would be interesting to know what happens here on your machine:
https://github.com/gouessej/java3d-core/blob/master/src/main/java/org/jogamp/java3d/JoglPipeline.java#L8500

Edit.: What happens when you call "new Canvas3D(null)"?

I found, through experiment, that jdk1.8.152 has the same problem as jdk1.9. This problem is not easy for me to solve. Anybody have any ideas?
Thanks!

Thanks for your suggesting on Canvas3D. I have tried the following code:
     public static void testCanvas3D() {
        Canvas3D c3d = new Canvas3D(null);
    }

    public static void main(String[] args) {
        testCanvas3D();
    }

I have never attempted to make a new instance of Canvas3D with a null GraphicsConfiguration, before. Not sure what to expect.
Thanks!
 - Doug

You have to use the property "allowNullGraphicsConfig" to make it work. Sorry, I forgot that information.

Edit.: -Dj3d.allowNullGraphicsConfig

By the way, you're still not using Java3D 1.6.0 Final according to your stack trace. When I look at the source code, one line of your latest stack trace is on a comment in Java3D 1.6.0 Final, it's not possible.

In order to remove any worries about the version of the jar file that I am using, I am now building from source code everything except the jogamp-fat.jar.
Also, I have added the -Dj3d.allowNullGraphicsConfig , as suggested (great idea!).
The message "Java 3D: null graphics configs disabled" indicated that things are seeing the new flag, but, sadly, there is no joy in Mudville :(

Thank you for your kind assistance.
Regards,

Which source code do you use?

The line 982 is in a comment in Java3D 1.6.0-final:
https://github.com/hharrison/java3d-core/blob/master/src/javax/media/j3d/Canvas3D.java#L982

I advise you to put a debug point on this line:
https://github.com/gouessej/java3d-core/blob/master/src/main/java/org/jogamp/java3d/JoglPipeline.java#L8500

If Canvas3D.graphicsConfigTable remains empty, all graphics configurations will be considered invalid.

Edit.: Please add -Dj3d.allowNullGraphicsConfig=true.

I am using:
https://gouessej.wordpress.com/2012/08/01/java-3d-est-de-retour-java-3d-is-back/#commandline
to guide me to:
git clone https://github.com/hharrison/java3d-core.git j3d-core

git clone https://github.com/hharrison/vecmath.git vecmath
mkdir jogl-v2.3.2
wget http://jogamp.org/deployment/v2.3.2/fat/jogamp-fat.jar -P jogl-v2.3.2

The jogamp-fat.jar is used now, in conjunction with the above j3d-core, j3d-utils and vecmath source codes.
I tried putting in:
     synchronized (Canvas3D.graphicsConfigTable) {
            System.out.println("Canvas3D.graphicsConfigTable.put");
            Canvas3D.graphicsConfigTable.put(config, gcInf0);
          }
but the print statement is never executed.
Am I using the correct version of the source code and the correct version of the jogl?
Thanks!
 - Doug

You seem to be using the correct version of JOGL and Java3D except if you have forgotten to remove any version of Java3D installed as an extension, this is explained in my tutorial.

Do you use "-Dj3d.allowNullGraphicsConfig=true"?

I advise you to use the debug mode in your favourite IDE and to put a debug point into JoglPipeline.getBestConfiguration(GraphicsConfigTemplate3D,GraphicsConfiguration[]) and into Canvas3D.checkForValidGraphicsConfig(GraphicsConfiguration,boolean).

Moreover, I advise you to use the reflection API to call the private static method Canvas3D.defaultGraphicsConfiguration(). If it throws an exception or if it returns null, it will explain why all this doesn't work. Either GraphicsEnvironment.getLocalGraphicsEnvironment().getDefaultScreenDevice() is null in your configuration or GraphicsEnvironment.getLocalGraphicsEnvironment().
getDefaultScreenDevice().getBestConfiguration(GraphicsConfigTemplate) returns null. A dirty workaround would consist in filling the table manually in case of failure.

Edit.: GraphicsEnvironment.getLocalGraphicsEnvironment().getDefaultScreenDevice() isn't null according to your previous tests. Maybe GraphicsEnvironment.getLocalGraphicsEnvironment().getDefaultScreenDevice().getBestConfiguration(new GraphicsConfigTemplate3D()) is null. I'm not sure that "pixfmt=0" is a good piece of news. What happens with Java 1.8 update < 152 (i.e before the regression)?

Thank you for your prompt response.
You may see: "-Dj3d.allowNullGraphicsConfig" in the jvm invocation,
/Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/jdk1.8.0_152.jdk/Contents/Home/bin/java -Dj3d.allowNullGraphicsConfig
 Is that right?
You write:
"Either GraphicsEnvironment.getLocalGraphicsEnvironment().getDefaultScreenDevice() is null in your configuration or GraphicsEnvironment.getLocalGraphicsEnvironment().
getDefaultScreenDevice().getBestConfiguration(GraphicsConfigTemplate) returns null"

Interestingly, neither assertion is bearing fruit. I shall attempt to print the references prior to the death of jvm so that you may see what I am seeing. First, the code:
public static void main(String[] args) {
        GraphicsEnvironment
                localGraphicsEnvironment
                = GraphicsEnvironment.getLocalGraphicsEnvironment();
        GraphicsDevice gd=localGraphicsEnvironment
                           .getDefaultScreenDevice();
        System.out.println
                ("GraphicsDevice" +
                 ":"+gd);
        GraphicsConfigTemplate3D
                template =  new GraphicsConfigTemplate3D();
//is this an OK way to create a template? Should I turn off some antialiasing features?
//or assert off-screen rendering?
        System.out.println
                ("template" +
                 ":"+template);
        //Here is where we kill the jvm:
        gd.getBestConfiguration(template);

Is this some sort of awt error?

I put a main method to test canvas3d, as I think this is the focus of all the attention;
   public static void main(String[] args) {
        GraphicsConfiguration gc= Canvas3D
                .defaultGraphicsConfiguration();
        System.out.println("GraphicsConfiguration:"+gc);
    }
Using jdk9, just to make sure there is no stray jars floating around, the jvm dies pretty quick. I turned VERBOSE=true to get a few more bits of information;

Can the pipeline be done in software? I am thinking it would be good to get something to work, even if slowly.

Thanks!

People! Listen to me very carefully.

I know the exact spot where the JVM 9 crashes.

In the file j3d/j3d-core/src/javax/media/j3d/GraphicsConfigTemplate3D.java, in the method...

@Override
public GraphicsConfiguration getBestConfiguration(GraphicsConfiguration[] gc) {
if ((gc == null) || (gc.length == 0) || (gc[0] == null)) {
    return null;
}

synchronized (globalLock) {
    testCfg = gc;

    // It is possible that the followign postRequest will
    // cause request renderer run immediately before
    // runMonitor(WAIT). So we need to set
    // threadWaiting to true.

    threadWaiting = true;

    // Prevent deadlock if invoke from Behavior callback since
    // this thread has to wait Renderer thread to finish but
    // MC can only handle postRequest and put it in Renderer
    // queue when free.

    if (Thread.currentThread() instanceof BehaviorScheduler) {
         VirtualUniverse.mc.sendRenderMessage(gc[0], this,
         // this is not executed
         MasterControl.GETBESTCONFIG);
    } else {
         // this is executed
         VirtualUniverse.mc.postRequest(MasterControl.GETBESTCONFIG, this);
    }

    // this is okay
    runMonitor(J3dThread.WAIT);

    // !!!     this crashes the JVM 9    !!!
    GraphicsConfiguration graphicsConfiguration = (GraphicsConfiguration) testCfg;

    // this is okay
    return graphicsConfiguration;

    }
}

Douglas, when you git clone the j3d project and curl the jogl files based on the j3d/j3d-core/README-build.html webpage instructions, you create 4 directories. The j3d directories need to be named like this:
j3d-core
j3d-util
vecmath
The jogl directory is named
jogl-v2.3.1

However, the build.xml file in j3d-core directory refers to the jogl-v2.3.2 directory that does not exist initially. This error needs to be corrected to begin compiling your own j3d project.

Douglas, I don't understand why you are seeing any errors in the latest Java 8. I am convinced that everything functions well when you use the Java 8. I don't doubt that you are seeing errors in Java 8, but I suspect that it is off-topic to discuss the details of the graphics configuration, canvas, and other things in this special situation. Maybe you are having some kind of general problem in the local build environment such as the "unclean" environment in which the Java has created multiple directories with the different library files or something that looks like we are seeing ghosts.

I forgot to mention once again: I don't expect any errors if you are using Java 8.

The first error of the type:
Canvas3D: GraphicsConfiguration is not compatible with Canvas3D
or the second error about the null GraphicsConfiguration, are both acceptable.

Both errors messages can be created by crafting the convenient code and both of these messages are useless.

Eventually, the getBestConfiguration(based_on_this_3D_template) method is called and eventually, you can create 3D objects despite any previous error messages.

But you cannot call this method in Java 9.

Thanks, I think there is also an error in the "1.5" directive in
the build.xml, as the javac was asking to create "1.6" versions of the
bytecodes (or newer)....
Ciao,

Here is how I am able to run java on the mac;
step 1, totally remove jdk9;

sudo rm -fr /Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/jdk-9.jdk/
sudo rm -fr /Library/Internet\ Plug-Ins/JavaAppletPlugin.plugin
sudo rm -fr /Library/PreferencePanes/JavaControlPanel.prefPane

step 2, reinstall jdk8 (1.8_151)

The jdk9 launcher was somehow preventing the creation of a canvas3d, even when jdk8 was selected
as the preferred run-time. I do not know what is going on with that.

You may test my webstart version of jogl at:
http://www.docjava.com/book/cgij/code/jnlp/j3d.examples.boids.Main.jnlp

Please let me know if you have any problems running the program...and if anybody can
get jdk9 on a mac to run java3d, I would sure appreciate knowing about it.

Thanks!

Thank you for your prompt response.
You may see: "-Dj3d.allowNullGraphicsConfig" in the jvm invocation,
/Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/jdk1.8.0_152.jdk/Contents/Home/bin/java -Dj3d.allowNullGraphicsConfig
 Is that right?

No, it isn't, you have to use "-Dj3d.allowNullGraphicsConfig=true" otherwise the null graphics configuration remains disabled.

Predrag, why does it crash?
https://github.com/gouessej/java3d-core/blob/master/src/main/java/org/jogamp/java3d/GraphicsConfigTemplate3D.java#L320

There is no need of "pipeline be done in software", the problem is in the initialization with AWT, JOGL itself isn't to blame. You don't realize the amount of work that would require the implementation of a software pipeline and anyway, as the concern is in AWT, such a pipeline wouldn't help at all.

Nobody should use Java Webstart nowadays...

The exact line of code where the JVM 9 crashes (on the latest Apple computers) can be found in the file j3d/j3d-core/src/javax/media/j3d/GraphicsConfigTemplate3D.java, in the method GraphicsConfiguration getBestConfiguration(GraphicsConfiguration[] gc). Please read the method contents to find the line inside.



@Override
public GraphicsConfiguration getBestConfiguration(GraphicsConfiguration[] gc) {
if ((gc == null) || (gc.length == 0) || (gc[0] == null)) {
    return null;
}

synchronized (globalLock) {
    testCfg = gc;

    // It is possible that the followign postRequest will
    // cause request renderer run immediately before
    // runMonitor(WAIT). So we need to set
    // threadWaiting to true.

    threadWaiting = true;

    // Prevent deadlock if invoke from Behavior callback since
    // this thread has to wait Renderer thread to finish but
    // MC can only handle postRequest and put it in Renderer
    // queue when free.

    if (Thread.currentThread() instanceof BehaviorScheduler) {
         VirtualUniverse.mc.sendRenderMessage(gc[0], this,
         // this is not executed
         MasterControl.GETBESTCONFIG);
    } else {
         // this is executed
         VirtualUniverse.mc.postRequest(MasterControl.GETBESTCONFIG, this);
    }

    // this is okay
    runMonitor(J3dThread.WAIT);

    // !!!     this crashes the JVM 9    !!!
    GraphicsConfiguration graphicsConfiguration = (GraphicsConfiguration) testCfg;

    // this is okay
    return graphicsConfiguration;

    }
}




More precisely, the spot where the JVM 9 crashes is in

                canvas.doQuery();

in

    @Override
    GraphicsConfiguration getBestConfiguration(GraphicsConfigTemplate3D gct,
            GraphicsConfiguration[] gc)

in the file j3d-core/src/javax/media/j3d/JoglPipeline.java.




And even more precisely, the spot where the JVM 9 crashes is in

            context.destroy();

in the following method:


        // It seems that at least on Mac OS X we need to do the OpenGL
        // context-related work outside of the addNotify call because the
        // Canvas hasn't been resized to a non-zero size by that point
        private void doQuery() {
            if (alreadyRan)
                return;
            GLContext context = glDrawable.createContext(null);
            int res = context.makeCurrent();
            if (res != GLContext.CONTEXT_NOT_CURRENT) {
                try {
                    chooser.init(context);
                } finally {
                    context.release();
                }
            }


            // !!!     this crashes the JVM 9    !!!
            context.destroy();

            alreadyRan = true;

            glDrawable.setRealized(false);
            nativeWindow.destroy();
        }
    }


in the file JoglPipeline.java.

I don't know why this is happening, but I was interested in learning how to examine the program execution.
