Will DJNativeSwing be impacted by Internet Explorer End of Life?

aakif shamsi — Mon, 16 May 2022 19:43:44 -0000

With IE Retiring on June 15, 2022, could you provide some details on whether we could continue using DJNativeSwing in Windows?

In https://sourceforge.net/p/djproject/bugs/81/#2103 you mention it will continue to work for several years, could you share some details on the COM component used and references which suggest that it shall be available for us for several years?

Hi,

Is it just a message in the console or it is not working at all?

Please help me to resolve this.

#21 JWebbrwoser support in Linux(Fedora,centos)

Christopher Deckers — Thu, 04 Mar 2021 12:33:42 -0000

Hi Devi,

I think that if you use a recent version of SWT and if a Webkit browser is installed, then that would be used.
But... I don't know the state of this support. Java client applications are less and less developed, so this project might be getting a bit obsolete.

To force the use of Webkit, you might have to set this system property:
nativeswing.webbrowser.runtime=webkit

The requirements for SWT to load Webkit are explained here:
https://www.eclipse.org/swt/faq.php#howusewebkit

Hope this helps,

JWebbrwoser support in Linux(Fedora,centos)

Vdevi — Thu, 04 Mar 2021 12:19:17 -0000

Hi Christopher,

I am very new to the linux and using JWebBrowser in windows without any issue. Now migrating the application to linux where JWebBrowser is not working. How to resolve the following exception in linux(Ex:fedora,centos) where the solution should be same for all flavours.
org.eclipse.swt.SWTError: No more handles [Unknown Mozilla path (MOZILLA_FIVE_HOME not set)]

I tried the samplebrowserexample also, which got failed with the same error. I see the forums that XULRUNNER is needed but mozilla stopped it from 2015. Please help to understand and resolve the issue.

Thanks
Devi

#20 Black Screen - Need your help

#20 Black Screen - Need your help

Christopher Deckers — Mon, 20 Jan 2020 17:58:05 -0000

Hi Vasant,

I wish this black screen issue were fixed. Unfortunately, only few users use that feature and it can be quite time consuming to fix. Moreover, there is no guarantee that I would find a fix (native stuff, especially when mixing toolkits, has its quircks).
I would need to find some free time to look at it, but am quite busy on other things at the moment...

Do not hesitate to contact me by e-mail to discuss the subject further: chrriis (at) gmail (dot) com.
