Applet GUI problems..

Nope - check it out:

Open your Java console.

BTW - you need Java 1.4+ for the demo.

Here's what I have now:

import com.metasolutions.jfcml.JFCMLWindow;
import com.metasolutions.jfcml.JFCMLWindowFactory;

import javax.swing.JApplet;
import javax.swing.JFrame;
import javax.swing.SwingUtilities;

import java.io.File;

public class test extends JApplet
{
      private JFCMLWindowFactory factory;
      private JFCMLWindow jfcmlw;
      
      public void init()
      {
            factory = new JFCMLWindowFactory();
            runDemo( "<JFCML><JRootPane><JMenuBar><JMenu Text=\"Hello\" Mnemonic=\"H\"><JMenuItem Text=\"World\"/></JMenu></JMenuBar><ContentPane><JPanel Background=\"Color(255,0,0)\"><JLabel Text=\"Hello World\" Foreground=\"Color(0,255,0)\"/></JPanel></ContentPane></JRootPane></JFCML>");
      }
      
      
      private static final String HEADER =
            "<?xml version=\"1.0\" encoding=\"UTF-16\"?>\r\n\r\n" +
            "<!DOCTYPE JFCML SYSTEM \"http://meta-solutions.com/jfcml.dtd\">\r\n";
      
      public void runDemo( String input ) {
            System.out.println(input);
            final String s = HEADER + input;
            try {
                  SwingUtilities.invokeAndWait( new Runnable() {
                        public void run() {
                              createAndShowGUI( s );
                              System.out.println( "ALL DONE!" );
                              System.out.flush();
                        }
                  });
            } catch( Exception e ) {
                  throw new RuntimeException( "Failed to create GUI", e );
            }
            System.out.println( "returning from rundemo()" );
            System.out.flush();
      }
      
      private void createAndShowGUI( String s ) {
            if( jfcmlw != null )
                  this.removeAll();
            jfcmlw = new JFCMLWindow();
            factory.build( new java.io.CharArrayReader( s.toCharArray() ), jfcmlw );
            System.out.println( "returned from build" );
            System.out.flush();
            invalidate();
            add( jfcmlw );
            repaint();
            
            System.out.println( "set root pane" );
            System.out.flush();
            
            setSize( 300,300 );
            setVisible( true );
      }
      
}

Mmm. I see an error on my console (1.4.2_05) about the use some swing component.

I've noticed, so long as I call it from init(), it works.  I can call it more than once from init.  BUT, I'll bet when I call it twice from init(), HotSpot is optimizing out the repeated calls.

When you refresh the whole page it comes back.

Oh well.  Give it a shot tomarrow.

Thanks,

Shawn

What does it say??  I made it on 1.5-beta2.  It's not an endorsed version.  I set my compile target to 1.4..  Dang.

I use JDK1.5 and it doesn't wanna load the applet at all
