Indeed - grabbed java's source code and had a look. Very patchy!

Did some more testing - upgraded to the latest cvs e17 on both my 32
and 64 bit systems and grabbed the 32 and 64 bit blackdown-java ports
of jdk-1.4.2.02 for each system respectively.

Java apps on the 32 bit system work fine in both e17 and gnome, but
on the 64 bit system they fail as desribed below in e17, but work ok in
gnome. Maybe something's up with blackdowns 64 bit compile - is anyone
else successfully running java apps and e17 on a 64 bit system?

Cheers,
Daniel Stonier.

java problem. reat awt_wm.c in java's source and find out. java's x
"compatibility" layer is pretty nasty and is not good at making correct and sane "hacks" around x, icccm and netwm - again - read the source code in java. (things like ASSUMING single reparenting unless it specially detects a cetrain wm, lots of code to try detect wm's and then work differently in every wm makes it a bitch to track what java is doing. it's just bad style in design doing
what they have done).

Problem:

Java apps upon starting are automatically collapsed (only the title bar
showing). I can resize the window but it leaves just a blank grey template which isn't drawn on. Other than that, the apps seem to be working - they open up the correct number of windows when there are multiple windows and
one of them opens up a dialog when you hit the kill button on the top
right corner. This happens in E17, but not in Gnome.

System: Pentium D 64 Bit (EMT64)
OS: Gentoo 64 Bit
WM: E17
Java: Blackdown JRE or JDK 1.4.2, Sun 64 Bit JRE or IBM JDK 1.5.0
Java Apps: Any. Running "javaws" will do (javaws usually brings up a
selection of apps you can try and run).

(Happens with all the above javas)

Have I java problems (perhaps some variables not being set correctly that
gnome perchance does?) or is it a WM problem? Do any of you know where I
could start looking for info to nut this one out or need some info that
might help shed some light on it?

Kind regards,
Daniel Stonier
