OSX El Capitan issues

Hi Guys,

Just to say that I've noticed some strange behaviour in JOGL with 2.3.1 and 2.3.2 with El Capitan having installed it over the weekend. What I'm about to describe does not happen with older versions of JOGL from about 12 months ago (not sure of the exact versions).

Essentially placing a couple GLCanvas's in any kind of toggle container (TabPane/CardLayout/etc..) causes one to always show up over the top of the other and when resizing the container neither window resizes.

I've tried making a few simple test examples with a single GLCanvas and it shows the same incorrect resize behaviour. However if the GLCanvas is the root item in the frame then it appears to work ok..

The Java output window spews out the following:

I'm presuming Apple have changed something again in the newest release of OSX that's upsetting things.. I've tried different Java versions and it doesn't make any difference..

Many Thanks

Hi

Please make a real bug report:
http://jogamp.org/wiki/index.php/Jogl_FAQ#Bugreports_.26_Testing

Be more accurate, provide more information and a test case or use an existing unit test. If it's a regression, indicate precisely which version was working.

Hi Julien,

As soon as I get chance to put something together I will.. just thought I'd post this as a "heads up"... or in case I'd missed something obvious!

Many Thanks

Mark

Hi Julien,

I've managed to fix/work around this issue.. but now I'm not sure whether it's a bug or a mistake in my coding. However it does only effect El Capitan so that might be a clue!

Essentially I had the code that finalised the layout of my panels and set them visible in a SwingUtilities.invokeLater() block. If I take them out of the block everything behaves correctly (although I do get that random text output still in the original message).

As soon as I put the calls back into the "invokeLater" thread then the second GLCanvas goes all screwy and essentially draws all over the top of the first GLCanvas.

As there may be a big "warning don't do this" message in some of the JOGL documentation somewhere then I won't raise this as a bug just yet...

Many Thanks

Mark

Hi

Actually, putting some UI code into SwingUtilities.invokeLater() is a good idea. There is probably a bug in AWT under OS X. Which JVM do you use? Please can you indicate more precisely what you mean by "the code that finalised the layout of my panels and set them visible". In my humble opinion, it would be safer for us that you provide a tiny piece of code to reproduce your bug.

Hi Julien,

I did make a simple little demo whilst I was tracking down the problem. In fact I made two that I thought were identical and one showed the problem and one did not.. which had me stumped for a while.

The demo was just two GLCanvas's in separate Tab panes.

If I remember correctly if I just put the JFrame.setVisible(true) in the invokeLater section it broke.. removed the invokeLater and it displayed correctly.

I'll dig the code out from my machine when I'm back in the office.. but it really was that simple.

The JVM is the latest Oracle release (and also tested on some older Oracle 1.8 releases).

Many Thanks

Mark
