Jogl2 + Webstart deployment on Snow Leopard: is it supposed to work?

Hi there,

I found some time to retry making my "chronotext" experiments work with Jogl2.

I have two testing machines:
1) PC (Intel) with XP and a NVIDIA card
2) New MacBook Pro with Snow Leopard

So far,  I was able to "translate" most of my old Jogl1 code to Jogl2 and everything works fine on both platform within Eclipse.

The problem is with Webstart deployment. The following works on XP:
http://chronotext.org/lab/Behind.jnlp

It's based on http://jogamp.org/deployment/webstart
Note that using "webstart-next" is not changing anything.

On Snow Leopard, I'm getting the following:

java.lang.ExceptionInInitializerError
...
Caused by: javax.media.opengl.GLException: No profile available: [GL2, GL3bc, GL4bc, GL2GL3, GL3, GL4, GL2ES2, GLES2, GL2ES1, GLES1], GLAvailability[Native[GL4bc false, GL4 false, GL3bc false, GL3 false, GL2 false, GL2ES1 false, GLES1 false, GL2ES2 false, GLES2 false], Profiles[, default null]]
        at javax.media.opengl.GLProfile.<clinit>(GLProfile.java:1008)

Thanks for your feedback,

Hi Ariel,

great to see you as early adopter around here :)

we have currently no mac builds since we have no mac slave for the build server. (But its on the todo list)

webstart-next links to webstart until we have final release builds. For now both are identical.

sorry for the inconvenience,
best regards,

michael

And probably done before Siggraph, they are in the mail somwhere :)

Still have to do a bit more MacOSX coding, but I guess I can finish this
until then as well, will take around 1-2 days.

Cheers, Sven

Thanks for both of your responses.

One point that I don't understand yet regarding Webstart deployment: why everything does works as intended on Snow Leopard when using the same Jogl2 jars and jnilib files, packaged as a "User Library" within Eclipse?

Thanks,
Ariel

Because the new Safari / Java implementation is different,
and we will make a change in the JNLP if running under OSX, ie:

<param name="separate_jvm" value="false" />

because of ..

Michael researched this goody, and we might need to use this until a better solution is available.

If you like .. you can try with this such a parameter :)

Cheers, Sven
