Java17 compatibility error ??

Hello,

I'm developing CodeLab IDE & Simulators using Java3D. To remain compatible with other libraries, I need to upgrade to Java 17 (https://adoptium.net/temurin/releases/?version=17), but apparently Java3D is causing compatibility problems. When will a Java3D version compatible with Java17 be available?

Thank you for help me!

As I replied in a private message, you just have to use the usual "--add-opens" clause I mentioned in my tutorial to make it work.

In our case, we use the following options when using Java 17.

(Windows)
--add-exports=java.desktop/sun.awt=ALL-UNNAMED

(Linux)
--add-exports=java.desktop/sun.awt=ALL-UNNAMED  --add-opens=java.desktop/sun.awt.X11=ALL-UNNAMED

By the way, it is unfortunately found that the "--add exports" option is ignored in some Windows systems if it is added in .l4j.ini for Launch4j (an old version), whereas the option works if added to a Windows .bat file.

Thank you for the feedback. It's strange, "--add-opens java.desktop/sun.awt=ALL-UNNAMED" was enough to make it work under GNU Linux the last time I tried.

Currently used in master tip

--add-opens java.desktop/sun.awt=ALL-UNNAMED --add-opens java.desktop/sun.awt.windows=ALL-UNNAMED --add-opens java.desktop/sun.java2d=ALL-UNNAMED

The added one to have background erase working w/ AWT
