Due to the current gap in continued funding from the U.S. National Science Foundation (NSF), the NSF Unidata Program Center has temporarily paused most operations. See NSF Unidata Pause in Most Operations for details.
Hi Guillaume, First, congtrats on your experiments with Java 2 and Java3D on Linux. I tried a few months ago with Blackdown's first release, but ran into UnsatisfiedLinkErrors when I tried to run anything that opened a window. So I have not yet run VisAD successfully on Linux. According to the VisAD FAQ, 'Class ... not found' errors are generally due to an error in your CLASSPATH. However, since your errors are not occuring until you get to the visad/examples directory, where the source files do not include package statements, the problem may be more subtle. First, does your CLASSPATH include the parent directory of your visad directory, and '.' (the current directory)? I believe that the '.' is necessary to compile visad/examples because these classes do not have a package statement. As a test, you might try: cd visad/examples javac -J-mx32m *.java Also, on all matters related to the VisAD Makefile I defer to Dave Glowacki, who knows much more about it than I do. So Dave, please correct me if I'm wrong about this. > Then I have got the visad.jar file (to get rid of the compilation > problems) but I get another problem :the frame is disappearing > immediatly after the program is loaded (I can hardly see it). > Have you already met this ? Any idea ? This could be a problem with Linux Java 2 or Java3D. Have you tried the demos under jdk1.2/demo/jfc or jdk1.2/demo/java3d? Do you get the disappearing frame with both Java2D and Java3D demos? (Test41 for Java2D, Test42 for Java3D, in examples).
