Title: Java applications
Post by: Joop on December 30, 2012, 04:46:39 pm
I have setup a Java applications page on my homepage. Each Java program which runs on my system gets its own page with how I did it including a download file with at least the command file and an OS/2 icon. Sometimes I put in other libs if they are hard to find. Today I have finished the new setup in English language, you can find it here;

http://joopn.home.xs4all.nl/os2ecs/ecs6e.htm (http://joopn.home.xs4all.nl/os2ecs/ecs6e.htm)

I hope it will help some users. I want to add that its a way of running a program, not "the" or "the only way".
Have fun,

Joop

It's a great overview you've made Joop. I sometimes have problems with how to set up certain java programs; this will make it easier!

 Joop,

  Thanks for creating this web site, you obviously have spent a lot of time testing apps. I will refer to it when I try some of these Java apps...

Thanks David and Melf for the compliments, my biggest concern is that it will grow out of proportions. We'll see where it will end, this setup gives some room to insert more programs and there are lots of them.

I updated today the Java applications page. Changed install instructions for Total Validator. Added GeoGebra, can be found in the map Educational programs.

Updated the page today. I made some changes to Borg, its more cosmetic for the page. Put in a new program OpenProj. Both can be found in Office programs. Updated the pages "test phase" and "disapproved".

Joop, may I ask a question? 

I use many of the java programs you highlight without using a command file, in fact all I do is make a standard program object for each program.  At the moment I have not seen any problems doing it that way.  So my question is what are the advantages of using a command file to start these java programs?

I have a question trying to run SmartGit.

I'm running SmartGit 2.1.8
​http://www.syntevo.com/smartgit/download-archive.html

The software seems to run fine:
"java -Dsun.io.useCanonCaches=false -Dsun.java.command=SmartGit -Dsmartgit.checkIncompatibleJava=false -jar ./lib/smartgit.jar "

But I can not access a GitHub address to clone a repository.
I'm getting the following error:

"An I/O error Occurred.

Own environment and I use different Java versions (Java 1.4.2_05, Java 1.60GA or Java 1.60GA3) for some programs, if started from a program object your config.sys plays a role. So sometimes it can, sometimes it can't. Problem with program object is that you can't see what your typing in because of the limit length of the fields. And how do you put in the separate set lines? I know someone who uses Run with env files. So there is not one way to start a program within OS/2-eComStation. I found the way I do very easy, own environment and you can switch very easy if something doesn't work out. But your free to use any method to fire your programs.

I don't know, have to find out. Do know that not everything is implemented or works. There are differences between Sun Java and Open JDK. So this might be one of them.

I'm running SmartGit 2.1.8
Downloaded 3.0.11 today. Try to set it up, get back one line

"Not (yet) supported operating system OS/2"

I know its a later version, but there are some troubles with the program if you read between the installer lines in the .sh file.
Program isn't programmed in the right way, if you come up with the above line then the least I expect is that Java is aborted in the right way, not, got a stalled system, nothing could be started after running the program. Had to reboot.
Third thing I noticed is that you need to specify memory in this way "-Xmx256m -Dsmartgit.vm-xmx=256m", didn't see any memory declaration in your command line, so errors might be problems due to memory heap. One of the typical behaviors  of our OpenJDK implementation is that it shows all kinds of errors which aren't an error just because there wasn't enough memory.
I didn't find anything like "-Dsun.java.command=SmartGit -Dsmartgit.checkIncompatibleJava=false"
I think this is wrong "-jar ./lib/smartgit.jar" and should be "-jar ./lib/bootloader.jar" unless there are so much differences between 3.0.11 and 2.1.8.
It is very closed, I have to register twice to get into http://www.syntevo.com/smartgit/community.html, one with syntevo and one with Yahoo or something. Next Smartgit needs another program(s) which I don't run.

Downloaded your version, there are differences between 3.0.11 and 2.1.8. The thing which stays is -Xmx${MAXIMUM_HEAP_SIZE} -Dsmartgit.vm-xmx=${MAXIMUM_HEAP_SIZE} which isn't in your command line.
The "-jar ./lib/smartgit.jar" is right for version 2.1.8. So I think that if you specify heap_size that all problems are gone.

Also find this in a readme file in 2.1.8;
You need to ensure that a Java Runtime Environment from SUN, version >= 1.5 or
higher (version 1.6.* is recommended), is installed on your system. GNU Java
(GCJ) or OpenJDK is not fully compatible yet and hence not sufficient to run
SmartGit.

So its clear why I got the message with 3.0.11.... Raising a ticket is right, but I doubt if we can solve that in our implementation of OpenJDK.

I've run a couple of applications you may want to try out as well

GenealogyJ -  to keep track of your ancestors.
You can import information from standardised format or add your own info.
It work quite well and can print to native OS/2-eCS printers, both text/table and the graphical representation of the family tree. It also write svg, png and PDF files that one can use further.
There are several variants of Report and Charts to choose from.

JDownloader - to download files from various file sharing sites.
You can use it both as member of a file sharing site(s) and as free user.
The built in/shipped unrar library doesn't work, you need to rely on native tools.
Use zip 3.0 to merge split zip archives or Zippy to handle all those formats (zip, rar, tar, wpi...).

I use rexx scripts to launch java applications and another one for zip 3.0 on machines that doesn't have Zippy. I'll post the scripts again once the rexx area come up here in the forums.

Post by: Martin Iturbide on January 03, 2013, 05:12:41 pm
About SmartGit, it seems that version 3.0.11 uses SWT (eclipse SWT component) that we don't have migrated to eCS-OS2. That's why I'm using version 2.1.8. (that was a quick analysis I did before, anybody is welcome to deny this).
    ​
SmartGit 2.1.8 runs fine on eComStation, the issue is that to connect to GitHub is seems to have some certificates (or some security stuff) that are not working on our OpenJDK.

If anybody around is using Linux with OpenJDK and can try SmartGit 2.1.8 to connect to Github it will be appreciated.

Martin

Hi Martin (or anyone who knows),

I'm looking at all the code you uploaded to github, so I now wonder if you resolved the problem of using SmartGit with github.
Title: Re: Java applications
Post by: Martin Iturbide on September 20, 2013, 09:53:19 pm
Hi Neil

Sorry, I don't have a way to work SmartGit with eComStation. I had been using git.exe on eCS to upload some source code. (I use smartgit on the Windows partition).

I wrote this quick article of using git and github on eComStation: http://www.edm2.com/index.php/Using_Git_under_eComStation

About some other Java apps.

I noticed GreenFoot (http://www.greenfoot.org/door) and Alice (http://www.alice.org/index.php) but I was no able to make them run. Not because of any error, I just didn't found the right way to call the .jar.  (both seems to be platform independent, but I don't know).

Regards.
Title: Re: Java applications
Post by: ivan on September 20, 2013, 10:43:40 pm
Martin, you did note that both of those programs require the JDK or SDK in OS/2-eCS speak not the runtime.

I might see about downloading one of them over the weekend and see if I can do anything with it.
Title: Re: Java applications
Post by: ivan on September 21, 2013, 04:59:49 pm
OK, I downloaded greenfoot (because it was a small download). 

The generic jar file is an installer which works without any apparent problems.  It creates a shell script (it appears to assume that our system is linux because we are using openjdk6) which I now have to interpret for OS/2 to use.

The script is below if anyone would like to venture an interpretation it would be helpful.

#!/bin/sh
APPBASE="f:\java-apps\greenfoot"
JAVAPATH="F:\openjdk6-sdk-ga5"
CP="$APPBASE/lib/bluej.jar:$JAVAPATH/lib/tools.jar"
"$JAVAPATH/bin/java" -cp "$CP" bluej.Boot -greenfoot=true -bluej.compiler.showunchecked=false "$@"

Not fully certain what the $@ is... it may be picking up a command line argument (which a quick search seems to confirm).
Title: Re: Java applications
Post by: ivan on September 22, 2013, 05:43:20 pm
Thanks Andy, that gets it up and running.

The only thing missing is starting firefox, which it appears to want to do.  It supposedly uses the JDK browser starting functions to, first see if there is a running instance of firefox and then, if not, start it.

The score of 0 is because I was watching what happened rather than doing anything with it.
Title: Re: Java applications
Post by: Martin Iturbide on September 23, 2013, 11:34:29 pm
Thanks Ivan, Andy.

I was not able to make GreenFoot to run. I had installed the SDK but the installer didn't allowed me to continue.

I will try it out.
Title: Re: Java applications
Post by: ivan on September 24, 2013, 12:02:17 am
A couple of things to note Martin.

First run <path to openjdk-sdk\bin> java -jar greenfoot-generic-230.jar  that is the installer.

Second, the installer wants to put tools.jar in the sdk \lib directory.  If it can't do this it will stop working and greenfoot is not installed.

Other than having the openjdk6-sdk-ga5 dir in the root of a drive (in my case f:\ as it where I have space to try things out on this box) and Andy saving me the trouble of working out the script I did nothing that isn't normal when running a java app.

One other thing.  I have now made a program object as follows;

Path and file name
F:\OPENJDK6-SDK-GA5\BIN\JAVA.EXE

Parameters
-Duser.home=f:\java-apps\greenfoot -cp f:\java-apps\greenfoot\lib\bluej.jar;f:\openjdk6-sdk-ga5\lib\tools.jar bluej.Boot -greenfoot=true -bluej.compiler.showunchecked=false "$@"

Working directory
left blank

**The parameters are all on one line**

I also made an icon for it.
 
Title: Re: Java applications
Post by: Dave Yeo on September 24, 2013, 04:17:54 am
The $@ is a *nix shell thing which the WPS won't expand (not sure about Java but I doubt it will expand it as well).  Being a program object you can just drop any files on the program object or associate it with the appropriately.
Title: Re: Java applications
Post by: ivan on September 24, 2013, 12:43:00 pm
Thanks Dave.  I thought it had to be something like that but I don't know enough about *nix to be sure - hence my asking for help decoding the script.

Hi,

Exception in thread "main" java.lang.UnsupportedClassVersionError: org/jmol/translation/Jmol/nl/Messages_nl : Unsupported major.minor version 51.0

This error indicates that the jar-file was compiled for JAVA 1.7.

Hi Martin,

try "java -jar tvbrowser.jar -ignorejvm"  to launch TVBrowser. Had the same issue with connecting to internet and -ignorejvm solved this.

cheers

I tried a tvbrowser_3.4_bin_transportable.zip.

TVBrowser shows some errors on loads.

Same message as previous update. Also www.jmol.org doesn't work anymore, you are redirected to an old sourceforge page. Don't know if this is just for today, may be server down or so. At this moment there is no way to obtain information about what's going on.

Post by: Joop on June 20, 2015, 12:42:46 am
I have contacted the developer, they know of the problem and believed they solved it. With my mail I could proof otherwise. A part of Jmol is compiled with Java version 1.7, this is the reason that it won't work with our version of OpenJDK version 1.6. Now lets wait what will be done.

Title: Re: Java applications
Post by: Joop on June 20, 2015, 03:25:26 pm
I got today a newer version in which they believe the problem is solved. I promised to do some testing and come back to him. They are afraid that due to specialized programs that they can't check on versions anymore, ie we might miss the boat due to the version number of our implementation of jdk and OS. Lets see...

Have you tried this, because 12.2.4 works for me (anyone else) ?

I have updated jAlbum from an older version. When starting jAlbum I get this error: Could not find the main class se/datadosen/jalbum/Main. What do I do?


That error is triggered if you install jAlbum 8.2 on top of an earlier jAlbum installation. Make sure you have removed the old installation directory completely before installing jAlbum 8.2 and you will be fine. Simply running the old uninstaller isn't always enough.
Title: Re: Java applications
Post by: Joop on July 01, 2015, 05:01:24 pm
Greggory,
I always "install" in a fresh new directory. I download the zip version without installer. After that I unzip the zip in the new directory. Its pretty straight forward. After that I copy an old jalbum.cmd to the new directory and change a few things because it resides in an other directory. With this simple installation it did run with versions prior version 12. After the line "java.lang.NullPointerException" you can read on the first line after that line what's wrong. In short, it does have problems with the toolbar and  the build in explorer. If it can't find the class you probably still have something in your config.sys from version 1.1 or so.

This is my setup
@echo off
set path=[drive:]\JAVA\JAVA160ga5\bin;
SET BEGINLIBPATH=[drive:]\JAVA\JAVA160ga5\bin
set appdata=[drive:]\plaatjes\MyAlbums
[drive:]
cd [drive:]\DTP\JAlbum_1224
java -Xmx400M -jar JAlbum.jar 2>jalbum_1224_bugtracker.txt

I use different drives for Java and for stuff from JAlbum. Java and the program can reside in same drive, but different directories.

Got mail from the developer from Jmol with an update, this time success, I have running the latest. The downside is that its in 3 parts now, so not real user friendly for installing. Good thing we are on the map. In future Jmol needs a higher version of Java, probably 8, have to wait when that happens. Hopefully they will deliver an update before the switch to Java 8 which is more easy to download and install.

ProjectLibre version 1.6 or 1.6.1 will not work with our OpenJDK. I get an pid.log with this;

Martin,
I have tried the 3 programs, but they act not real normal After a while I had a sub directory with again all programs, I had a hidden sub directory which was only shown when you have to pick one, all other did not show this directory including FC/2. Deleted that. Want to know your experience with the 3 programs.

Hi Joop.

Maybe you can add "Java Screen Recorder" on your site.
https://code.google.com/p/java-screen-recorder/

It works fine to create to screen videos of eCS-OS2.

I have tried JSound. No instructions, no setup files. The first thing it wanted to do is to download so called updates. But it couldn't find them. The strange thing is that they are just all in the lib directory. Put in the path, but with no effect. Somewhere in the www they say its spyware. Deleted the stuff. Your warned now.

The last versions only work with Java 7 and up,  Oracle halted security and support for Java 6 in 2013. What this has to do with writing your own html pages is beyond me, but we have to live with the fact that downloading the last version will end in nothing and the message "Exception in thread "main" java.lang.UnsupportedClassVersionError: Arachnophilia/Arachnophilia : Unsupported major.minor version 51.0" in the bug file.

I have the manual for Watermarker-3 as a PDF file just under 2Mb if you are interested.

If those images are in a folder you can tell the program to mark all those in that folder.  It will also mark photos in a folder and sub folders (did that for a friend who wanted to put some pictures up on facebook but weren't sure which ones so I did them all).

Hi Martin, would you be so kind to go back a few messages. I had asked you some questions and I like your opinion.

Finding apps is some sort of a pain in the you know what. I try first http://sourceforge.net and then I get some "hints" and with that I try Google.  Typing in the right search word is most important. That is sometimes difficult because my native is Dutch and the way we learned searching is totally different than what is teached on your site of the pond.

Hi Joop.

Maybe you can add "Java Screen Recorder" on your site.
https://code.google.com/p/java-screen-recorder/

It works fine to create to screen videos of eCS-OS2.

Regards

I don't understand what do you need. Are the program not working for you? or you need more details on how to make that program to work to record the screen?

I run "java -jar screen_recorder.jar"
The GUI opens up with a button that says "Start Recording".
I start recording and after doing some stuff on the screen I press "Stop Recording".
It ask me to save the file as .cap (no idea what format it is).

After that I convert the .cap file as .mov
I run "java -jar screen_converter.jar RecordedFile1.cap"
It produce me a .mov file that can be uploaded to YouTube.

The strange stuff I can found in my case it  that produces a directory which seems to be the Odin directory structure to make the java app believe it is running on Windows. Do you have the same problem? I thought it was because I moved the UNIXROOT of my machine.

Yes.

The strange stuff I can found in my case it  that produces a directory which seems to be the Odin directory structure to make the java app believe it is running on Windows. Do you have the same problem? I thought it was because I moved the UNIXROOT of my machine.
The programs do run on my machine with similar setups. So no difference here. I had files on all drives I picked for saving files and it dropped some in the home directory. As soon as you choose for something else than Odin and my documents the program seems to have a mind of its own. Also it produces things somewhere "in between". I had a directory which wasn't shown anywhere, but it was not hidden because FC/2 will show those too. Very strange.
Running the recorder is going very slow, the meter is going to 99.99% and it is almost not possible to run something else next to it. Yes we can run it, doing something useful with it is on my machine out of the question. For me not a candidate for my homepage about Java.

cheers

I have tried again TV-Browser and also with this switch. It is shown at startup, however in my bugtracker file I get this;
11-jul-2015 15:51:27 tvbrowser.TVBrowser parseCommandline
WARNING: Unknown command line parameter: '-ignorejvm'

The program did start, got through some setup screens and... nothing. There are no stations available for Holland, took Belgium and nothing. Then I tried Denmark, added five channels and bye bye. Got Lib panics, now I know that this is the other way to say I don't have enough memory, I put in 128Mb. Program comes up again, but now the language is changed to one I can't read. Tried to switch to English and from that moment it was game over. Didn't understand this, so got into the jar file and I have opened the manifest. Its compiled with Java 7.... I know everything on the net says Java 6, but this is not true, hence we got all kinds of problems. I delete this program and I have made an entry on my page "Disapproved Java programs".

ProjectLibre version 1.6.2 has been released (2016/09/07). This is project management software with support for Gantt diagrams, which requires Java 1.6.

There is no way you can run this program in OS/2-eCS with Java version 6. Its compiled with version 1.8 aka 8.

Manifest-Version: 1.0
Ant-Version: Apache Ant 1.9.4
Created-By: 1.8.0_25-b17 (Oracle Corporation)
Main-Class: com.projity.main.Main
Class-Path: lib/openproj-contrib.jar lib/openproj-script.jar lib/openp
 roj-reports.jar

If you run it with the options given in the zip you will get "hs_err_pidXX.log" files where XX is a number. If you run it from a command session then that session will hang, Java is not properly closed. Its very hard to close the session, sometimes you have to reboot.

I tried that, but at first Java didn't start. I'm still unsure what causes the problem, looks like or a program error in projectlibre or a program error in Java. I show the details, may be we can make something from it, if its an error in our version of Java. Following the setup given in the distribution will definite fail in OS/2-eCS with latest Java in my system with 1Gb memory and VIRTUALADDRESSLIMIT set to 1536.

There are some lines in it which sounds not logic to me. In the picture below you can see that free memory is not the issue; 900Mb+ free (before loading Java and the program). The only thing I can think of is that Java code and -Xmx768m won't go in my situation with VIRTUALADDRESSLIMIT=1536.

So starting the "Martin"  way with nothing ie;
java -jar projectlibre.jar 2>projectlibrebugs.txt (with or without 2>projectlibrebugs.txt)

will start the program. But again, this is odd, why specify -Xmx768m memory in batchfile and sh-file? So in the end I think that this way of running the program will end somewhere in the process, because the program wants more memory than available in the detected maximum heap.
 
If started this way you get this;
opts:
POD Version: 1.6.2 local version 1.6.2 updated=false java version=1.6.0_27
Invalid item: ProjectLibre it must be a menu item in the menu properties, even i
f it's only shown in a toolbar
Invalid item: Palette it must be a menu item in the menu properties, even if it'
s only shown in a toolbar
Invalid item: LookAndFeel it must be a menu item in the menu properties, even if
 it's only shown in a toolbar
Invalid item: FullScreen it must be a menu item in the menu properties, even if

s only shown in a toolbar
Loading I:\PROGRAMS\ProjectLibre\test.pod...
Loading...Done in 360 ms
Deserializing...
Deserializing...Done in 400 ms

Also the file projectlibrebugs.txt (in my example) will hold some kind of log, so don't be alarmed when it grows in size.

Finally a picture from the screen. At first the loaded file with not that much of data did crash Java once in my system, so I think you need more memory than the 1Gb in my system or used VIRTUALADDRESSLIMIT=1536, but setting the last one higher can give problems in other area.

Hi Joop,

If your machine has only 1 Gb ram then that could be part of the problem.  All of our multi core machines have 4 Gb and the minimum ram on the others is 2 Gb.

There are a couple of things you could try.
1) run CLEANINI with /c /restart this does solve a lot of obscure problems because the ini files don't have a very good cleanup mechanism.   
2) run MEMTEST from a bootable CD just to check that there are no problems with the memory in your machine.

Other than the above I can't see any reason you are having problems.

Out of interest here are my settings for the program object

Path & file name
C:\OPENJDK6\BIN\JAVAW.EXE

Parameters
-Duser.home=f:\java-apps\projectlibre-162 -Xms128m -Xmx768m -jar projectlibre.jar

Working Directory
F:\JAVA-APPS\projectlibre-162


Now all I have to do is find a nice icon for it.

All of our multi core machines have 4 Gb and the minimum ram on the others is 2 Gb.

Parameters
-Duser.home=f:\java-apps\projectlibre-162 -Xms128m -Xmx768m -jar projectlibre.jar
If you have 2 or 4Gb memory then you don't have problems with -Xmx768m, there is enough room. VIRTUALADDRESSLIMIT is an important item in it. For Java however you need physical memory. May be its time to change motherboard, its over 10 years now, but still functional and okay up to now.
You can make your own icon with pictogram editor, its somewhere in your OS/2 installation part. I regularly use wptools checkini with /c. But thanks for the hints, will try it.

Managed some time ago this year to install DataCrow and run it without stalling or so. But I had problems with importing pictures. There is a warning on the official website. According the website its some incompatibility between Java from Oracle and OpenJDK. But we don't have a choice. To make a long story short, I found out that PNG images are read and saved in the database. If you go to the database and you peak around you will find your images as....JPG. But those are not accepted when you want to import them, so I wonder what's wrong. I have updated my website.

(http://joopn.home.xs4all.nl/os2ecs/plaatjes/7DFF2363.jpg)

An other problem was downloading. The author has moved to an other web location and with this move he erased all files. The only available are the ones for minimum Java 7. I wrote about it and now the 3.12.5 upgrade version is also available. But this is downgrading and I haven't test it. You can download version 4.0.1 from my site. Its a huge file, ouch for my web space... You can find the page here http://joopn.home.xs4all.nl/os2ecs/ecs6e37.htm

I have added a new program to the growing collection, its JGPSTrackEdit. JGPSTrackEdit is a tool for editing gps tracks and planning (multiple days) tours (GPS track editor).
I did test it with a question in mind which route had more meters to cover because in the end of the year I have to cycle that track daily. So nice opportunity for testing. I was amazed that I got that good maps, but you have to be connected to the internet for it. So a lot of that program is just also working in OS/2-eCS, which is good news.

I have added a new program to the list of Java programs which run in our implementation of Java.
This time it is an office program with the name GanttProject
The picture below shows the program in Dutch, but there is also English and a lot of other languages. It did switch automatic at startup to Dutch. If you like an other language you can set it up in the preferences.
I know that there is a javaw, but I like to see what's happening. In the download you will find a cmd file with java, but you can replace that with javaw if you like.

I agree that my cmd file in the download can be arranged differently, but as it is more a kind of switch box I let this to the user in finding his/her own workable version. Lets see with what you can come up with! But as far as I did test, the stuff works.

Thanks to David for posting the link to the HP15C;

More info on my homepage http://joopn.home.xs4all.nl/os2ecs/ecs6e67.htm (http://joopn.home.xs4all.nl/os2ecs/ecs6e67.htm)

When you are on my homepage you can see in the menu that both HP emulators are next to each other. Now what's the best? Hmmm, difficult. The thing I like is that with the HP12C you have only the machine and you can zoom it up or down. However the HP15C does have a test and some other functions. Both are complicated calculators and I have another one on test. Also a HP. If your going to look for calculators, there are hundreds out there, all written in Java.

Thanks again David for your posting.

I have updated my page Disapproved Java programs file:///O:/homepage/os2ecs/ecs6e47.htm (http://file:///O:/homepage/os2ecs/ecs6e47.htm).
Added new programs which aren't working properly or aren't working at all. Some programs do work with older versions, but some of them are too far behind for whats going on today.

I have sent a mail to the eclipse webmaster,  wanted to ask a simple question, had to register for the forum, next I get some kind of agreement. I didn't agree with it because I don't have Eclipse running and second shrink wrapped licenses are not legal in my country. But I want to ask my simple question in the forum. So lets see with what answer they come up with, guess something like "no".  That would be too bad, because as far as I can see it there are only two programs which are or an executable or a dll file. Most of it is just Java.

I have added a new Java program on my homepage for OS/2-eCS. Its called Geometria and you can find more on my page: http://joopn.home.xs4all.nl/os2ecs/ecs6e69.htm (http://joopn.home.xs4all.nl/os2ecs/ecs6e69.htm).

(http://joopn.home.xs4all.nl/os2ecs/plaatjes/7E0FKA2.jpg)

The message in software news of an updated Geometria version 4.0 on Monday, 13 June 2016 is not an update of version 3.2 but a total new approach. What Windows and Linux users get, and eComStation users don't, is a tiny web server that runs on your desktop with a simple double-click. This is the rest of the answer of the developer of Geometria;
I would suggest to connect your eComStation computers to a PHP-enabled web server, such as Apache. The server does not need to be eComStation, it can be a Linux server. If that is not possible, perhaps this site <http://www.amp4ecs.de/> can be of help. However, if you do find a way to connect your people to a web server, please proceed as follows:

  * Download the server package from http://geocentral.net/geometria/download
  * Unzip and copy to the web server's web documents directory.
  * Connect your user computers to http://your.server.name/geometria/index.html

Your users will be able to do everything except save problems and solutions back to the server. However, there is a way to let them do that: change readOnly from true to false in the geometria.php file. The application running on the official Geometria web site is just Apache+PHP with readOnly=true. If you do decide to let your users save their work back to the server, I would advise to have a separate folder under the root 'all' node in the document navigator, for each user. If the number of the users is large, you may want to consider other options, which will require some work on the geometria.php file.

So there is a way out, but I read it not as easy and certainly not stand alone. May be I'm wrong, but the way you can run version 3.2 is definite totally different then for version 4.0.

Have fun!

The program eats your clock tics, on my single core machine the processor usage shoots to the roof. So when you don't have a multicore system it might be wise to set the clock in pause mode. After that you can browse easily through the program, only nobody is doing anything. All is on hold ;-).

The English page can be found here http://joopn.home.xs4all.nl/os2ecs/ecs6e75.htm (http://joopn.home.xs4all.nl/os2ecs/ecs6e75.htm) and the Dutch page can be found here http://joopn.home.xs4all.nl/os2ecs/ecs6n75.htm (http://joopn.home.xs4all.nl/os2ecs/ecs6n75.htm). Its jEdit version 4.5.2, I had the program for a long time under test because the next version was stripped from OS/2 code. The version after that version had a partly rebuild with OS/2 code because I complained. But its still wrong, so the new versions of jEdit has to be build again with proper OS/2 code. The thing I never understood was that they could easily take an old version and strip it from there. So the present version is the last version which works.

Today I added another program to my homepage. This is the English version http://joopn.home.xs4all.nl/os2ecs/ecs6e76.htm (http://joopn.home.xs4all.nl/os2ecs/ecs6e76.htm) and this is the Dutch version http://joopn.home.xs4all.nl/os2ecs/ecs6n76.htm (http://joopn.home.xs4all.nl/os2ecs/ecs6n76.htm). This program also works with Java 1.4.2 and has no trouble with our latest version Java 6. This is how it looks like;

Okay, that's it for today. I like to hear any suggestions for a search. However, I have seen some very nice programs, but they all need Java 7 or 8. And we are still waiting on that one. I had hoped for an equal "drive" as seen with QT, but this seems not true.

Joop,

There is a newer version 5.1 fixed for OS/2 and I think it's on Hobbes (or do a search of this forum).

Tried that one, fix for OS/2 is incomplete. If you tag a directory it will go on in that directory with that directory until you run out of environment space, which is huge in OS/2. So you get directory1/directory1/directory1... until memory is up and you can't reach the tail anymore with you mouse or something.
Version 5.2 and up is for Java 7. Version 5.0 is the screwed up version in which they deleted the OS/2 code. So version 4.5.2 is the last version for OS/2 which works and can run in Java 6.

No, didn't test that one, now I did ;-). Did test it on the point where it fails, but that's history with this version. I will update my page, but this version is the last version for OS/2. We have to wait for an update on Java. Thanks for pointing out, thought they referred to the one on Sourceforge. That one won't work.

All three need to be transported to the other side. This program gives you the tools for solving the problem. But once you understand it you can put in much more complex problems and see what happens. In the end you can make the right choices.

FWIW - I started looking to see if I could build openjdk locally. Partly to see if it would build with GCC 6.2.0; but partly to start to look at how difficult it would be to update our JDK to the latest v6 build; then depending how that went, to see how much changed with openjdk7.

Unfortunately, my build got stick fairly early on with an error compiling some java code with javac. I'll try get back onto this when I stop being so distracted with Samba :)

Thanks for visiting my pages and this topic. I don't think you can compare JSoko with Trashman. JSoko does have hundreds of levels and storerooms. Also it has a solver and much more. Also I'm not in the game which is best or better or whatever someone comes up with. The only thing I do is finding serious programs for our version of Java (which is hard enough) and yes, some of them are to stay like Data Crow and Memoranda with lots of options. But the latter is personal preference. I think what most users forget is that Java can run on any serious computer system and you can take your Java program with its data to other platforms, a lesson I did learn the hard way with Apple which doesn't fulfill its promise and is going downhill again in favor of swift money and not in quality or bug-free or backwards compatibility. Most important thing with data is your backup and have a working restore if anything happens, no matter what.

About the program UPM, update to last version. There is more international support, particularly interesting for Dutch users.
The page about Hodoku is updated, some lines where too long, so the page didn't show too well.

As you noticed it is slowing down with adding new Java programs to my site. The reason for this is that there are no easy pickings anymore. I do have many programs on the burner so to speak, its shifting from front to back and reverse, depending on the answers on my questions I do get or not.
I had this one on the drive for a long time. The reason is that it is small and only one jar file, can't be much. So wrong. So I have added a new page to my homepage with the Java program Pixelitor.

I have a question. I do have Java programs which works in OS/2-eCS (don't have ArcaOS because its still not available in Dutch), but do something on the net. I want to have a log with what those programs do and vent on the net. But haven't an idea how to setup such log. Some help is appreciated. So having a ftp programs is nice, but you to have tell your logon name and your password. What I want to test is if it doesn't copy that to some other unwanted site.

Check out the iptrace and ipformat programs (TCPIP Command Reference) as well as Paul's port of wireshark. Biggest problem is not getting too much data, second problem is if something is encrypted, it is hard to know  what it is.

Thanks Dave, I understand that, but you can't encrypt an internet address. I just want to see if something is going to somewhere which is not my choice, in other words the program does trojan stuff.

I have added a new game to my Java site, its Micropolis. For some unknown reason the jar file is not available anymore on the source, only source files, not a compiled one. As far as I can see its just free software under the GNU conditions. Because its difficult to download I made a new distribution file special for OS/2 and its successors. Its complete with icon, commandfile, the jar file and some info how you can handle the program. You can find it here http://joopn.home.xs4all.nl/os2ecs/ecs6e124.htm (http://joopn.home.xs4all.nl/os2ecs/ecs6e124.htm) or in Dutch language http://joopn.home.xs4all.nl/os2ecs/ecs6n124.htm (http://joopn.home.xs4all.nl/os2ecs/ecs6n124.htm).

Its called JPhotoAlbum and you can find more on my page http://joopn.home.xs4all.nl/os2ecs/ecs6e125.htm (http://joopn.home.xs4all.nl/os2ecs/ecs6e125.htm) or in Dutch http://joopn.home.xs4all.nl/os2ecs/ecs6n125.htm (http://joopn.home.xs4all.nl/os2ecs/ecs6n125.htm). All those programs which make html pages do have problems when it comes to validating. This program no exception. But I have wrote some lines about it and how to overcome the problems which was easy with this program.

I have a picture from the program too, not from the html page;

Hi Martin,
Sorry, that will not work. On my site you can read why. Since version 1.5.x you need Java version 7 due to some functions not found in Java 6. I did test it, but the result was a bug file with the information that my version 6 was too low.
I have updated the link to version 1.3.15 because they altered the directories. Version 1.3.15 is as far as I know the last usable version for Java 6. We just need an update on the Java engine to version 8 or 9, but I'm afraid we have to wait a little longer as the QT Browser has more priorities. Said that, if we get a version 8 or 9 I have a big nightmare ;-), everything have to be tested and updated on my site, all 124 Java applications.
I have still some programs on test, but time does fly these days.

About some other Java apps.

I noticed GreenFoot (http://www.greenfoot.org/door) and Alice (http://www.alice.org/index.php) but I was no able to make them run. Not because of any error, I just didn't found the right way to call the .jar.  (both seems to be platform independent, but I don't know).

Regards.
Hello Martin, Greenfoot, see last page of this topic. Alice can not run on OS/2-eCS/ArcaOS. There are some files specific for the used OS and there is no OS/2 version of Alice. There is also a lot of py, but that's solvable. The specific OS related files not.

No luck.
Program works, but as soon as I scan a drive I get;

SYS1808:
The process has stopped.  The software diagnostic
code (exception code) is  0328.

First I thought this was a memory problem, there is info for Apple systems for this problem. Got in steps to double that size, but it all ends with hs_err_pidXX.logs. Open those logs suggests a memory problem.

I don't have info on exception code 0328. Can't find it.

May be my drives are too difficult for the program ;-( and I tried just a really flat one.

I have looked into and found some programs, but all needed minimum Java 7 and we are behind. Other programs which could work with Java 6, but had specific files for operating systems like dll  (windows) and so (linux) files, so not pure Java. I did found the new address of NVJ which is now up to version 5.2, its grown huge. But it still works with Java 6, see my homepage. On my system it will take some time to read just the enormous amount of data for stars, galaxies etc. Of course, there is also the Moon, but I think not in the way you want it.

Have fun and best wishes for 2020,

Hi Joop,

Do you know of a java program that gives rise and set times for the moon from a set position?  It might be part of one that also gives sunrise and sunset.

Just happened to be visiting acme.com and noticed this, http://acme.com/java/software/Phoon.html (http://acme.com/java/software/Phoon.html), only phases of the Moon though.
There is no Java program to download, only X11. The only thing I found was a listing, but you need to compile that and I don't think its complete.

Reason the update on Yapbam with the translation to Dutch, see some topic before (https://www.os2world.com/forum/index.php/topic,18.msg24263.html#msg24263).
Because of the question from Ivan I found that NVJ was behind and the link not working anymore. Found that its moved to another host. You can find my updated pages about NVJ here http://joopn.home.xs4all.nl/os2ecs/ecs6e39.htm (http://joopn.home.xs4all.nl/os2ecs/ecs6e39.htm) and in Dutch http://joopn.home.xs4all.nl/os2ecs/ecs6n39.htm (http://joopn.home.xs4all.nl/os2ecs/ecs6n39.htm). NVJ has grown up to 18Mb, takes some time to load on my machine. Version is now 5.2.
If you go to http://joopn.home.xs4all.nl/os2ecs/ecs6e.htm (http://joopn.home.xs4all.nl/os2ecs/ecs6e.htm) or in Dutch http://joopn.home.xs4all.nl/os2ecs/ecs6n.htm (http://joopn.home.xs4all.nl/os2ecs/ecs6n.htm) you can see with the red dots before the section which section is updated. If you go to that section you can see again with the red dots what program is updated. The java section is now grown to 139 pages, one gap (the slot for iTrain) and the two pages above makes a total of 136 programs :o and counting  ;D 8)
Have a good and healthy 2020 and have fun!

I added yesterday the program "AllDay". Its a calendar with two options for color. That's it. It seems to pickup the right names for the months and abbreviations for the day. The program itself is English and there is no information if more languages can exist next to each other, only that you can translate it, but that could mean it is English, or its an other language. Comments could be "we have already such a program for OS/2". Yes I know, but this one shows different.

Hi joops, I had liked to try some of your application and took the chance to install Open JDK 1.6.0 b27 GA, founding a wpi installer here: https://hobbes.nmsu.edu/download/pub/java/system/openjdk6b27ga5.wpi
The installation went appearently well, I could set all the prerequisites wanted and listed in the installer warning, otherwise it refused to go on.  At the end the installer said that config.sys was modified, and a restart was required.
On restarting I found a new Open JDK folder on the desktop, and a new JAVA13 folder was created in the volume root tree, while a JAVA11 folder was already there, I believe belonging to the original system installation. So I manually deleted all the JAVA11 calls in the config.sys, just leaving the new JAVA13 ones.
Then I downloaded the JdiskReport app folder and run jdr.cmd file, nothing happened.  Opened the jdiskreport-bugs.txt file I read : "the name java is not recognized as an internal-external command, operable program or batch file"
Can you please help me in understanding what is going wrong?
Thank you much

Hi mauro,

I always use a program object to start any java program.  An example for the Java Night Vision (planetarium program) is attached below. The -Duser.home is used to tell the program to write it's information to the program dir rather than the java dir.
Title: Re: Java applications
Post by: Pete on January 22, 2020, 12:41:46 am
Hi mauro

Installing Open JDK 1.6.0 b27 GA should *not* create anything to do with java13x folders or config.sys lines unless the wpi package modifies existing config.sys java131 lines for some reason.

To Uninstall java11 open Computer -> Install/Remove -> Installed Features and uninstall java11.

I also use an object to start jdiskreport, Properties page displayed below.

Pete

@Mauro, thanks for visiting my pages. The beauty of OS/2 is that you can solve problems in many ways, unlike other systems you are not forced to one solution.
On the bottom of the page you can download a file with a command file and an OS/2 icon. I didn't read that you did that.
I will show you my file (not the one enclosed on the page)
@echo off
set BEGINLIBPATH=d:\JAVA\JAVA160ga5\bin
set path=d:\JAVA\JAVA160ga5\bin
I:
cd I:\UTILS\jdiskreport
java -Duser.home=I:\UTILS\jdiskreport -jar jdiskreport-1.3.1_os2.jar 2>jdiskreport-bugs.txt

As you can see its very simple. I downloaded the zip files and don't install Java, I just unzip the zip file in a directory. I just make a new directory, in this case JAVA160ga5. It resides in the directory JAVA because I have all installed next to each other. It doesn't bite so to speak. The reason I did this is that I can change Java installation in a moment. In this way I test programs.

So the important thing to have is set BEGINLIBPATH and set PATH. Both have to point to the JAVA bin directory. I don't have anything in config.sys, only Java 11 which was from the original installation and is still there.
Next is to switch to the right directory with the program. So first I set the disk to i:. Next I set to \utils\jdiskreport.
In the line with java.... you can omit -Duser.home and you can omit 2>.....
Whats left is java -jar jdiskreport-1.3.1_os2.jar. That's all!
But this is with a command file, as you can read from others, other solutions. That's the nice thing with OS/2.

To give you an example how extreme this is, I just change 2 characters in the whole setup for testing with JAVA160ga4.

Hope it helps,
Joop

Joop, Pete, Ivan, I could clear most of the things thanks to your indications :

@Joop: I initially misunderstood the instructions for using the applications on your pages. By reading too quick, my attention was limited to the file which contained the .cmd file and I was trying to run that file alone, also misleaded by the fact that I could not download the other one containing the real .jar executable object because a user+password is asked to access that file. Is that intentionally protected?
After this I moved on a couple of other java applications (Alle Day / ImageEditor) and I saw that they work just by choosing Open JDK item in the context menu of the .jar file , no need of object properties editing !

@Pete-Ivan: I've then found that both C:\java11 and C:\java13 folders were the initial java utilities folder installed within the system. The Open JDK 6 installation is in the new C:\APPS\OpenJDK folder . Also no need to uninstall them, as for running all java executables apps with the latest installed Open JDK version I just linked by default .JAR extention to Open JDK using Assoedit utility (menu "associate execution by filter") and now a doubleclick on the .jar app object does all the job   :D

Joop, I like much the java apps on your pages, do you think that a free word processor at the level (o nearly) of Open Office will appear there in the future?

Thank you

Thanks for the feed-back. I don't know what did go wrong. I use some kind of standard page setup and just fill in the text. That's done for page 1 to 140 (and counting ::)). So first I thought something did wrong in my setup, a failure which sneaky did get in, but no. Did compare with other pages, setup the same. Then I thought I had hit the limit on my space, but according FM/2 I have still one 1Gb left. I could not download the file. So strait to my account, file is there. But could not download it. So I uploaded the one on my harddrive (If anything happen I can replace my homepage immediately) to my account. Did start FF again and finally I could download the file. Beats me what did go wrong, can't find it. But if others have similar results with downloading, please report. Also report if a link to a file seems broken. Sometimes the source moves to other places.

If my pages are not understood or to difficult or something, please report. And please do tell me what's wrong. My native is Dutch and I setup the pages first in English and then translate them to Dutch  ;D. I have the feeling I did a decent job but...

Now your question of the word processor, problem 1 is that we still at OpenJDK 6. Problem 2, not all seems pure Java, sometimes specific files for Windows, Linux or Apple are included. In other words I have to compile a new dll if there is source for that file which is not always the case.  To make it worse.. having a dll, it is not said that it will work as code might be hard coded for those three. That brings me to problem 3, we don't have Eclipse. But the good thing is that I now know where to look for, but coming to problem 1, don't expect fancy things as Word was back then also not the level of today and "wordy"-things most times protected Microsoft stuff, so not to be included in a nice Java program.

Instead of downloading v1.3.1 get v1.3.2 from https://jdiskreport.en.uptodown.com/mac/download

Hi

It is not the splash screen that shows 1.3.1 - that shows 1.3.2 - it is the main screen ie the screen asking "What do you want to do?"

No idea why that is... unless it simply was not changed in the code during the update from 1.3.1.

The Help -> About shows 1.3.2 - see attached image.

Here are the file sizes and dates of the files involved:-

Directory of J:\JAVA\JDISKREPORT

29-07-19  9:00p         <DIR>    612 ----  ..

Title: Re: Java applications

Hi Pete and others,

There is a big change in the jar file jdiskreport-1.3.1_os2.jar  1.405.190, that is a big difference with jdiskreport-1.3.2.jar 1.860.633. Opening the jar tells me that this is not coming from JGoodies. JGoodies programs like this
a
a.class
b.class
c.class
and so on for everything.

Now with the claimed version 1.3.2 I found readable full names  like
ExtBasicCheckBoxMenuItemUI.class
ExtBasicMenuItemUI.class
ExtBasicMenuUI.class
ExtBasicPopupMenuSeparatorUI.class
ExtBasicRadioButtonMenuItemUI.class

Now you can't make something like the first and do something like the last. Somewhere you have to call those routines. And as JGoodies has all cut down to a, b, c ,d etc this is almost impossible, you have to decompile the source and your left with a,b ,c etc which makes it not easy to put in something like ExtBasicCheckBoxMenuItemUI.class on the right place. Also if someone is compiling his source down to something shown as a and a.class and so on, I can't believe that in a next version it will show full class names just on the last additions. 
And together with the explanation, which is totally bull in my opinion, this makes not that much difference in file size.

Some other strange thing;
jdiskreport-1.3.1_os2.zip 1.211.554
jdiskreport-1.3.2.zip             715.806
This says to me that version 1.3.2 is zipped with a more efficient zipper, then why use a less efficient zipper with the source with as result a bigger file? In the end a jar file is nothing more then a zip file.

So I go the safe side and use jdiskreport-1.3.1_os2.jar. As far as my information goes the next version is 1.4.1, but we need a higher level of Java and is available on the JGoodies website.

Just my opinion,
Joop
Title: Re: Java applications
Post by: Pete on January 26, 2020, 11:05:14 pm
Hi Joop

I don't have any reason to suspect this package is not a jgoodies release but have emailed them to ask their opinion.

Out of interest I got around to trying the 1.4.1 release which seems to be working fine with my limited testing to date - see attached image - using OpenJDK 6, Version 1.6.0 Build 27 GA5. So far the only thing I have noticed that seems wrong is File -> Preferences produces a full screen notebook that cannot be resized.

There shouldn't be any problems with jDiskReport 1.4.1 with our openjdk6.  I downloaded it quite some time ago after I found it for a friend to try and make sense with where the space had gone on his disk.  Yes it says that it will run with java6 but is happier with java7 and as Pete found the settings gives a full screen window that you can't resize but other than that it does what it says on the box.

I downloaded  jDiskReport 1.4.1 and installed it on my disk. Indeed it runs fine with our Java. Why it says Java 7/8 on download page beats me, in the readme you can read "JDiskReport 1.4.1 requires Java 6 or later. At least 64 MB
 of physical RAM is recommended to run JDiskReport.". I will update the page in the coming days, thanks for pointing me to this fact.
DocFetcher is an other thing. It hasn't a layout with a jar file and its setup for Windows, Linux and Apple. There are specific files for those three in two version 32 and 64. Don't know what these files do. So may be I have to go back to a version for specific Java 6 and see how to setup. My first attempts are not successful, but no complaints about Java version 6 so far.

Hi All

Looking at my boot drive - M:, using jDiskreport - I just noticed a \var directory that should not exist as my \var directory is located on drive J:

Investigating further I find that some java apps, jPDFViwer and jDiskreport definitely, create the directory tree [BootDrive]:\var\lib\odin with folders My Documents and Recent if these directories do not already exist on the boot drive.

I suspect this is happening because when I installed ArcaOS I installed the "nixy bits" - \etc, \usr, \var - to the boot drive but have now moved them to a different drive with more free space.

After hunting for some Java/Odin setting(s) pointing to M:\var I discovered a handful within the Registry Keys, HKEY_CURRENT_USER -> SOFTWARE -> MICROSOFT -> WINDOWS -> CURRENTVERSION -> Explorer -> Shell Folders and HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE -> SOFTWARE -> MICROSOFT -> WINDOWS -> CURRENTVERSION

Having changed all instances of M:\var to J:\var Java/Odin is now using the correct \var directory tree.


If anyone else moves their "nixy bits" from initial install drive to another drive the above info may come in handy.

Pete

I have added a new program to my Java site today. Its about sound and its called FScape. Its a stand alone program with lots of possibilities for manipulating sound files. I have tried some, but not all.See for yourself, you can find the program on my English page http://joopn.home.xs4all.nl/os2ecs/ecs6e146.htm (http://joopn.home.xs4all.nl/os2ecs/ecs6e146.htm) and in Dutch http://joopn.home.xs4all.nl/os2ecs/ecs6n146.htm (http://joopn.home.xs4all.nl/os2ecs/ecs6n146.htm).

During lock down due to the corona virus you get somewhere some trouble. So I updated my Java homepage with a program which can help in some way. Its called FatCalc. You need a separate tool (from very cheap to very expensive) for using it. See my page for more info. The program was original only English speaking, today also Dutch ;-), but frame names are hard coded and will stay, the rest of the information will be Dutch. It make use of the locale, so automatic the right language if available. Therefore the picture below is in Dutch, but trust me, it was English before I did something ;-).

I have updated the page " Java programs in the test phase". It does have more colored dots. The red ones are for newly added, the green ones for testing in progress, the yellow ones for is being worked on and the black ones for waiting.
The list is somewhat alphabetic and are the programs I have on the (back) burner. If you miss something don't hesitate to let me know. There are many programs NOT there because after downloading the programs are for Java versions much older (even Java 1.4 is then new), are for Java versions 7 up to 11, do have included dll or so files which don't work on our system, need 3D we don't have or make use of opengl which we also don't have. Then there are Java programs which do only work inside a browser. And last, programs which are pure Java but have inside some crazy lines which do test if it is Windows, Apple or Linux. For what reason? So after starting you get the message that your OS is not recognized. Al those programs are already from the hard disk, some of them where very large. But there is one which does work but will get your disk a dent in space. One jar file with a whopping size of 190.292K and this is a game.
You can read it all here in English http://joopn.home.xs4all.nl/os2ecs/ecs6e46.htm (http://joopn.home.xs4all.nl/os2ecs/ecs6e46.htm) or in Dutch http://joopn.home.xs4all.nl/os2ecs/ecs6n46.htm (http://joopn.home.xs4all.nl/os2ecs/ecs6n46.htm).

Hi Joop
Good to see that version 1.8 was running on OS/2, my last report was 1.6.2.
All versions do run on our system, but because I was too lazy in making a new Gantt, I wanted to use the old data. That didn't go with versions 1.9 and up due to a format change. But I could import the xml data. And with that action I found out that a part of the program was compiled for Java 7. So I did some other tests. Version 1.8 does do everything, but be aware that there are still some bugs, but not the one found in higher versions. I did made a ticket, but as all tickets are still open I doubt that it will be read and act.
I don't know if your Gantt is more realistic, I just did a few things in order to see what the program does ;-)

I did play today with it. It makes a files which have to be converted to a mov file. My very small try-out test.cap 1.249.885 converts to test.mov 65.408.667. What happens if you make an instruction movie (you did hang on my doorbell for this) with some length. What will happen at maximum filesize?

The 3 programs from Java-Screen-Recorder are very basic and more CLI then a program with a GUI. So, what's more which still works in Java 6? I found JScreenRecorder, but after "installing" and run the program I got an error with version 51, which means Java 7. But there was source... All other modules where compiled for version 6, only the main program leaves you in the dark because there is no information about minimal version. So I started Netbeans and did a try compilation. Got errors which Netbeans solved just by pushing some buttons. Got the question if I would downgrade to 6, YES. Next got errors which pointed to a not complete source. But with the way I do translations and bring that into a program, I did the same with the files from the test run. So now I have JScreenRecorder for Java 6 ;-). Did test the program. Yes it does everything what it should do, but.... Full screen is a problem, not due to recompiling. Java-Screen-Recorder doesn't have any problems with that. Also I want to do something, but its going smoother with Java-Screen-Recorder then with JScreenRecorder. So,it seems that GUI is not everything.... Also Java-Screen-Recorder has "internal" its own file format which can be converted to Quick-Time format. JScreenRecorder makes MP4 files. Not sure if the speed and smoothness has to do with the different file formats.

Now busy with page for Java-Screen-Recorder. English ready, have to do Dutch... Stay tuned ;-)

No, JScreenRecorder does has two/three problems on my machine.
1) It looses or has problem with focus with the watermark feature. Even when set the mark it sometimes complains that it is not set and its not clear why. Also it didn't show the mark in the watermark panel with the choice option what watermark to use. It show sometimes and it doesn't show sometimes. Setting the watermark on a full screen capture seems not possible. Start small and enlarge it to full screen is possible for the capture area, the watermark won't move with it, so it ends up somewhere in the middle (that explains some video's). The watermark screen does hang, only way out is restarting the system. You can omit this with settings and not use the watermark.
2) If set to recording it is not possible on my machine to start an other program and do/show things how to and so on. The cpu pulse shoots to 99% and starting Mozilla won't go. Only after stopping the recording, the program comes up and on screen. So, for capture and showing things its pretty useless. You first have to start  the program, then start JScreenRecorder. And even then its going slow and sluggish.

End of story, I am an experience richer with recompiling a part. That's a plus. This program is not for my Java site. To much trouble on things you want to use and to much computer restarts. The bug tracker file stays empty, so no Java errors!

If you had visit my Java homepage then you could have seen that the "Office programs" corner had no room anymore for another program. I have solved that problem and now there is room for another 23 programs in "Office programs". That means 5 rows with icons and very little room for the blue frame with program names and what it does. Therefore I introduce a new icon with the text "Index Office programs". When you click on the text or the icon you get a full page with the index. See the picture, in the red circle the new icon.

So this trick gives me some time to think about what to do when all rows are filled with icons...

I had downloaded two spreadsheet programs long time ago. Today I have run both spreadsheets. Together with the already published Jeks gives a nice view which is best. Verdict: none. Two spreadsheets use USA notation for decimal point and one uses the European version. All have parts which don't work. In Jeks you can make your own formula, that could be interesting. In Clean Sheets you have better layout. In between, if you can say it in that way, sits Sharp Tools. All have the trouble that you have enter the cell references manually instead of dragging it with the mouse. Sharp Tools can handle empty cells,  Clean Sheets can not, you have to fill an empty cell with a zero otherwise you can't use the sum formula without error. So all spreadsheet programs have something which doesn't work or is even absent. All spreadsheet programs does have something special. But all are no match for Lotus, Open Office, Staroffice or Mesa. And then we have not mentioned Windows 3.1 programs and DOS programs.

After this intro, I have added the spreadsheet program Sharp Tools to my Java website. You can read a little more on this page http://joopn.home.xs4all.nl/os2ecs/ecs6e167.htm (http://joopn.home.xs4all.nl/os2ecs/ecs6e167.htm) or in Dutch http://joopn.home.xs4all.nl/os2ecs/ecs6n167.htm (http://joopn.home.xs4all.nl/os2ecs/ecs6n167.htm).

Okay, big package, lots of stuff which has to do with Windows, can be deleted to make room on your disk. Also complete JRE inside, can also be deleted. Even then, still a big program. Made a cmd file and I after starting that I got back that it needs version 52, that's some short for Java version 8. So a no go. Downloaded version 9.2 with
the remark that it runs in Java 6, but no, also here I get back version 52 ie Java version 8. Probably some versions down it will run, but with what bugs?

I'm surprised by your concerns about my health, thank you. To help that out of the world, I'm alive and still kicking and very pissed off when it comes to OS/2. Surprised because my site didn't receive any visits than only (ro-)bot-systems. So I took it off-line. It could be on-line in a minute or so (I hope, because my provider is eaten by its big brother). Only on-line won't be of much help. Let me explain.

I'm pissed off on OS/2 because its the fourth time they shift nationalized version for a year. So, now I'm waiting for four years. Still no sign when it will come, if ever! I want my OS in my language in case of trouble and want to understand what's going on. English sucks when it comes to pinpointing problems. Don't get me wrong, I'm not alone in this. Next I did donate a lot of money for the new browser. And what pissed me off was the message in the end that you need at least a system with two processors, because its big (my databases are also big, no problem there). I use a P4 with 1G. Everything runs happy. Including concurrent Java versions for testing. So, I need a multiprocessor motherboard, this gives the problem I have to buy a new computer. Fine, money, not really a problem, getting it the way I want it, dream on. New motherboard multiprocessor means a system with no bios. My OS/2 versions (whatever its called) do not understand multiprocessor. So I need a new OS/2 (whatever its called) that does understand multiprocessor. But we are not there yet. New motherboards which might be available in MY COUNTRY are all without bios. So I need an OS/2 (whatever its called) that can support this. And here is a line, its not there yet.

Lets  assume I get it running, so new computer, new OS/2, but we still facing problems. We don't have a browser which is rock solid and with which you can do your thing on the internet. Still lots of trouble. Lots of promises which can't or are not fulfilled. An installation system which sucks while OS/2 has a nice system that addresses such problems. With FF I have problems on sources for Java programs. Next "Source Force" seems to play a faulty game, that's why most developers are going to Github. But with this switch all old versions are gone too. And we still stuck with Java 6.0. Github is big, but sucks when it comes to a ui with good search options. I'm not interested in code, I want ready to run Java programs. Up to now I'm unable to get a search pattern in Github which will do just that. And then you still have to deal with lots of misinformation. Programs on my Java pages can't be reached anymore because or its moved to Github, or its moved to an other directory, or its erased or Source Force has thought out other things. For sure I can't go there anymore because of FF too old. So I can't maintain my Java pages anymore (updating links). If I want that, then I need a new computer, new OS/2 (whatever its called) and a new browser. With the present problems with chip shortage, war's and lock downs due to diseases its a no, no and no. So getting my pages back on line won't help, almost all llnks to programs are obsolete. And there are other wishes.

Right now I'm typing this on a Raspberry Pi 400, in EU it cost you Euro 85.= if available. Quad core, 4Gb, twin Video output, USB and so on. Its an ARM, so Linux X86 doesn't run, programs have to be recompiled to ARM. Got SysJoker too, but that was a no go. SysJoker expects X86 family and  my processor is an ARM, so with the installation I got corrupt messages. That micro SD-card is erased, I had a backup. If you have a Windows system, boot without connection to the internet, systems like SysJoker want to do their thing in the boot process. If you are complaining about quality of the programs in OS/2, let me assure you its even worse in Linux, whatever they say. The first four months I had to make my keyboard understand Dutch, understand that it had to mount my Wacom tablet every time after booting. Had to find a way in the bash script that I can run a Java program the way I want it and so on. In short, Linux structure sucks and they issue new programs which are no where near for public without even testing it. That said, there are also little gems, so its not all negative. Right now I'm translating the manual from FidocadJ to Dutch. With it I  also have to update the translation of the program.

That's it for short. I'm watching these pages in order to find out when there is a new OS/2 (whatever they call it) and then find a system on which it  can run.

Well, ArcaOS 5.1 is well down the road to being released. The testing includes "NLV availability:    EN, CN, DE, ES, FR, IT, JA, KO, NL, TW" (RU is supposed to be there too, but is currently "broken", in more than one way). The Russian situation has caused delays.

I test ArcaOS 5.1 on single processor machines. Even Dooble (with known faults) runs pretty well on a 500 MB machine with single processor (Dell Dimension 4300 series, which is definitely JUNK). Dooble is slow (about the same as Firefox), but it works as well as it does on more capable machines (very limited testing).

ArcaOS is NOT going to work with an ARM processor. It must be x86 capable.

I keep track of when freinds, and relatives, get totally disgusted with windows performance and replace a perfectly good machine (usually less than 5 years old). Most of them can be used for OS/2, and most of the time, they give them to me, just to get rid of them.

I know, but as FF on OS/2 is to far behind I had to replace the system with a more recent browser in order to keep access to some systems.
Good to know that it runs on a singe processor system, but my system is about 16 years old and behind for more modern disks.

16 years is not "old". I test ArcaOS, with a few systems that are older  (including the Dell, which I am using to post this). I wouldn't want to be using any of them as my main machine. I do use one of them as an ArcaOS based NAS box. I got a SATA adapter, and now have a 2 TB SATA disk, for storage, and a SATA SSD for the boot system. It has 1 GB memory, a gigabit NIC, and a single P4 processor. It is a little slow (the bus speed, for the SATA card, is only 1.5 Gbs), but it does the job.

Intriguing! Can you post some screenshots? I'm keen to give this one a shot myself.

Here you go.

In the screenshot we have:

OS/2 Warp 4.5 in VM under Linux
WeirdX running in OS/2
Upper right is a terminal where Chromium-Ungoogled is running (Chrome without Google stuff).

To send it to OS/2 we have set the environment variable:

Code: [Select]
DISPLAY=192.168.1.89:2

That would change depending on the IP of the VM (or if it's from another machine on the network, the OS/2 machine's IP) and the config inside the weirdx.cmd file.

Inside the OS/2 VM we see the output of the Chrome process, as well as a plugin for Chrome to use the LINE messenger app.

In weirdx.cmd from the WeirdX distribution I have only changed:

Code: [Select]
rem set JAVA_HOME=\jdk1.1.6

to

Code: [Select]
set JAVA_HOME=C:\Java11


extra:

If you actually use the Linux machine as a desktop, it might be useful to have a separate browser you use for local vs remote (say Firefox & Chrome). If not, Chrome seems to find the previously-running copy and piggyback onto that one (displaying locally instead of to the OS/2 machine/VM)

The Linux host in the screenshot is running IceWM (from the original author of FTE!) and is using a modified warp3x theme.

Hi Joop,

I just stumbled across your post today. You are not alone. This is exactly the reason why my time and the money I invest in OS/2 and ArcaOS will also be close to zero.

No matter what the same people always bring for the same arguments as to why it doesn't work again, the result is that the NLV versions are simply not there. Fact. The same goes for WLAN.

We will have a nice, last OS/2 User meeting in Cologne on November the 5th and that's it.

For sure I will spent some time with the "Original" Warp 3 and Warp 4 Installations on my Retro Hardware, but there is no need for ArcaOS, the same applies to OS/2 in a virtual environment.

Wish you all the best, stay healthy!

Thank you for your visits to my site, I can set the site back, that is not a problem, the real problem is that many developers left Sourceforge due to their new policies. With it also the version which could run on Java 6 disappeared. Next Sourceforge did shift a lot of directories so that links don't work and they upgraded the site so it doesn't work any more with FF we have. Last, lot of developers deleted the versions which did run with Java 6. So in the end, setting my site back doesn't help much. If you have a Java program which won't run, put it up here. I still have OS/2 on a machine, just have to push the button. Today I'm typing on a Raspberry PI, the good news from that is that lots of Java programs from my site still do work fine with Java 11. Another thing I noticed is that lots of programs in U-nix are in fact beta or worse, no where near for public, but that is my oppinion, ask U-nix users and they disagree, where did we hear that before ;-). So, don't complain when it doesn't do what you want when your in OS/2, its not better in U-nix, its different.

When ArcaOS 5.0 was released, I checked on Alfredo for the Spanish translation of ArcaOS. I wanted to collaborate and see what can be done. Even if you think that Warp 4.52 was already translated, translating all the rest of ArcaOS to Spanish was a hell of a job. It was too much work and I quit and let Alfredo with that.

There was a matrix with all the stuff to translate and it was just too much work, and also the complexity since not all the programs use the same standard file to translate. It was hard to get the text file that you needed to translate and understand the context... I just quit that... sorry Alfredo !!

Sorry, lot to translate? Only totally new stuff, all other translations are already there. And doing the translation is also something with some lets say "smell" around it if I had understood the comments in the Dutch user group, many years ago, correct.

EVERYTHING needs to be translated (by volunteers). Any reference to "OS/2" needs to be translated to "ArcaOS" (for example, and there are many more),  It takes a LOT of work to find those things, and decide how to change the English version, then the translators need to translate it, then other translators need to make sure that the translation got done properly, and on, and on.

That doesn't include the work required to be able to build the installers for each language (which includes translating the installers). Then all of it needs to be tested, fixed, and tested again.

It is a HUGE project, and it all takes a lot of time, and effort.

Hi Joop

Sorry but I don't understand what .." "smell" around it " means.

In other words, there was a mismatch with the group which did the translation in Dutch up to eCS2.2. I heard this which is sad. From one I got a book which is usefull with translations. I translate programs, yes, translating can be time consuming and you have to run the program in order to see if the translation is right because English as language sucks because words can have very different meanings.

Does Hot Java Browser still runs on the latest OpenJDK that we have? The Rexx script does not run on my side.
It is just for fun, I'm not expecting to do much with it.

English as language

Is a mixture of pre-historical Northern European of I1 haplogroup (that you're feel as your native language) and Indo-European of R1b haplogroup (absolutely different, it came with agriculture).

It's known problem :-) I wrote this message via Google Translator :-)

Another OT post from me:

In German, there are even more terms with different meanings, so English is somehow easy for me. Moreover, we have trendy terms that sound English, but even don't exist there. And often expressions are directly translated, while the meaning depends on the context and is different in both languages.

By any chance does someone remember which was the latest Netbeans IDE that run under OS/2 with Java 6 ?
And any change you have the REXX script to make it run?

I'm guessing it was Netbeans 6.

My OS/2 pages are set back to its original directory, all should work. There is no way I can get with any browser on my system to the internet. I get  SSL errors and all http are set to https. So I have no way to test my pages in OS/2. I'm typing this on a Raspberry Pi 400. Today www sucks all the  way, search engines (if you can call it that way) don't give the answers on your question. If I set only Dutch then more then 90% is English with pages not in the Netherlands. How difficult is that? If it has no hits then say so or just show the hits which are what you did ask. With no shops and no  correct search results it will be difficult to get what you want. I need lots of time just to find the most simple thing. Very depressing if you have a creative mind which does compose equipment much faster then you ever can design on a computer. So what you see around is stupid people which needs a phone for there shopping list, I do that with my head. The only thing people do with there computer, if they know what that is, is playing stupid games. So to speak with Number 5 (from the movie) no input is no output. They don't read books, don't do interesting things with their computer and only look at that stupid phone. People get stupid by the minute if it is not even faster.

Sorry, this is one of the many programs which left Sourceforge, it is no longer on the servers of Sourceforge, thanks Lars for the link. Because my web browser in OS/2 is not able to connect to the www anymore, even getting new updates, update of the page has to wait until there is a new system from ArcaOS in the form of version 5.1 Dutch. It also demonstrates that you can't upgrade if your system is too far off. In other words, www sucks by the day more and more until it will reach a point that it is no longer useful. Sad that so many people can't handle freedom.

I have to go through every program in order to see if the link is valid and if there are updates and if so I do test updates if they will run with our version of Java. Not to mention that it will be more difficult today because Java is at version 17 or even higher.

Hi Joop

On this Netbeans page you have a dead link to "netbeans-7.3.1-netbeans-7.3.1-201306052037-javase.zip"
I found this one working:    
- https://github.com/tim-lebedkov/packages/releases/download/2019_Q1/netbeans-7.3.1-netbeans-7.3.1-201306052037-javase.zip

I followed your instructions, and I was sure to get the full "openjdk6_b27_sdk_os2_ga5-20130217.zip" on C:\PROGRAMS\OPENJDK

1) I don't know if deleting the "Locale" files are mandatory or optional, since just in case I want to keep the spanish things there.

2) I got this issue
Quote
[C:\netbeans\bin]netbeans.cmd --os2-install

[C:\netbeans]i:\utils\unzip -n C:\netbeans\nb\nbos2icons.zip -d C:\var\temp
SYS0015: The system cannot find the specified drive.

SYS0002: The system cannot find the file specified.
SYS0002: The system cannot find the file specified.
SYS0002: The system cannot find the file specified.

It is because "i:\utils\unzip" is not in that location for me.  Easy fix, I fixed and worked.

3) I run the recently created "NetBeans IDE 7.3.1" inside the folder on the desktop.  It runs for a little while and stops.
Where can I get more info or log of what happened ?

If I run it by command line I get:
Quote

That's the same file, different source.

1) I don't know if deleting the "Locale" files are mandatory or optional, since just in case I want to keep the spanish things there.
I got problems with that the command line did grow beyond what's the maximum size, so I got errors. If you look at the locale files then a lot can go because you probably never compile a program for that particular language. After done that I could run the program and I did compile something like "Hello world" or so.

[C:\netbeans]i:\utils\unzip -n C:\netbeans\nb\nbos2icons.zip -d C:\var\temp
You always have to check my cmd files because no one has the same setup in OS//2.

Netbeans changed the way everything is called later on, but those versions are not for us unless we get a new release of Java with a much higher version, even 11 is running out of date.

Strange, same version? All scripts on my website are tested on my own machine. Are you sure you have the last two lines as one in your  script? You can try to set everything in one directory, Current I'm not on my OS/2 machine, if I am I will look what I did. I was on the site, may be the version is too high, you need a higher version of Java for the last versions.

After a download of what's available today it turned out to be a totally other construct of the zip file. Besides that, even if I would set that strait it will not run because it needs at least Java 8. So this is what I did  8). Turned on my OS/2 computer and updated the pages with my own downloads. My up and download system is not depended on the browser. If you now go to the page you can download my downloaded version from back then. Also tried to find out if the downloads are more wider spread then the page of the Rigim owner and it did not. So there are now two pages where you can download Rigim, on the site of the owner which needs Java 8 or higher or my page which runs happily with Java 6. Up to you ::).

I have tested the zip. When you have such problems you can do a few things. One of them is to rename the main file to a proper java name, in this case there was no extension ".jar". Next don't follow what's inside the readme. So I tried with java -jar bjtutor.jar. When you do that you get  other comments back from java. In this case that the file is corrupt. Next rename it to a zip and try to unzip it. Not much in the file, but you can check on illegal activities like "eti is phone home". So I deleted the files and directory from my system, case closed. There is however a working BlackJack on my homepage, you can find it under "games". Sorry I don't have better news for you.

Too bad, if it is corrupt, it's corrupt. If I ever find a good version I will try it out.

Hi Joop

SportsTracker (https://joopn.home.xs4all.nl/os2ecs/ecs6e102.htm) was moved from SourceForge to Github and sadly the older released got removed:

- https://github.com/ssaring/sportstracker

License is GPL v2, so if you can include the old 5.3.0 version on your site, that would be great.

Because I'm working on a Rapsberry Pi 400 I have a higher version of Java. So I thought about a few upgrades, among them Sportstracker. Contacted the author, but that was a bad idea. He is now only supporting Windows and Apple with complete packages, that's inclusive Java in executable versions. Even if you download that you can't unwrap the stuff. He was very unfriendly and won't support something else. I will see if I can fix it, I have to mind the space for my pages. Can I upload it to Hobbes?

I have visited Hobbes and then the Java corner, there are already a lot of packages available. Is there an easy way I can download some kind of list in order to see whats missing and what need to be upgraded? Example Rachota is same version, but on my site it does also contain Dutch.
In Hobbes /pub/java/apps/misc you can find Data Crow 4.0.1 (2014-07-25), why not in /pub/java/apps/database/?

Hi Joop

I had been reorganizing hobbes since 2021. On the last three weeks I had been reorgnizing the Java applications, and I had based the java uploads on your site.  I'm still missing to fully process Games, Educational and the Office category of your site. I don't have an easy way to generate a list from hobbes.

About "/pub/java/apps/dabase", I had moved the stuff that was originally there, because there were utilities to manage databases and are now on "/pub/java/util/database".

Thanks for letting me know about Rachota, I will check it out.

Thanks Martin, will look into it. I copy old to new and change a few things, something went wrong with this one. The strange thing is that I always test the stuff, probably this slipped through.
I have copied the Java stuff from Hobbes "Hobbes java apps.ods" and sort it alphabetic "Hobbes java apps alfabetisch.ods". I did it in LibreOffice Calc on my Raspberry Pi 400. So this is one step ahead.

Hi Joop

I had completed the Java upload to hobbes today.
I'm only missing the latest working version of GeoGebra and SportsTracker. I can not found the older versions that worked on OS/2 (java 1.6) online.

Thanks a lot Joop, and let's continue to find out any other Java software that we may be missing.
If it is freeware/shareware/opensource/demo I will keep uploading those to hobbes.

Managed to get online for my homepage, hobbes and os2 world. So the important stuff is covered  8). I probably can upload above packages to Hobbes /pub/java, but can I also upload it strait to where it should be available or is only /pub/java available for "outsiders"?

Hi Joop

If you want to upload files to hobbes, put the directory where you want to store it.
- Maybe SportTracker will be good to go "/pub/java/apps/misc" since there is not an specific category for it.
- Geogebra, I think it should to go "/pub/java/apps/science/math", to keep the same structure as the /os2/ files.

Hi Joop, you can only upload to /pub/incoming. You need to include a text file with the same name as the zip except .txt instead of .zip. README.TEMPLATE is the template for the text file, seems to have gone missing from /pub/incoming so attached.

Hi Joop

To upload a file on hobbes you need to log in (hobbes.nmsu.edu) with anonymous ftp as the old days.
You need to upload your files to "/pub/incoming". Once file "name.zip" and the other "name.txt".

Check the  "/pub/incoming" and can download a  .txt file to see how are being set up as example.

I personally had been updating files using a naming standard as like "SportsTracker_5-3-0.zip" or "GeoGebra_4-4-42-0.zip" but that is not mandatory.

Today I have added a small program after a long time again. It is called CharMap;

(https://joopn.home.xs4all.nl/os2ecs/plaatjes/7E7EB489.png)

We have already such a program, but this one is written in Java. I have to use it on my Linux system, real messy system (I know that I stand on some toes  :o, sorry for that). The program works in Java 11 and it does work also in our Java 6. I was afraid that our system might be to alien, but no, all fonts are listed. And as you can see in the picture it also find our clipboard.

You can find the program on my site in English (some sort) https://joopn.home.xs4all.nl/os2ecs/ecs6e174.htm (https://joopn.home.xs4all.nl/os2ecs/ecs6e174.htm) or in Dutch https://joopn.home.xs4all.nl/os2ecs/ecs6n174.htm (https://joopn.home.xs4all.nl/os2ecs/ecs6n174.htm).

Hi Joop

I noticed your uploads.

I think that the system will reject "GeoGebra-Linux-Installer-4.4.42.0.tar.gz" since I have only seen is supports zip, wpi, pdf and exe.  I guess it will be deleted on the next batch process of the incoming directory. But let's see whats happens and we can fix it later, no worries.

You need a license key to run it, that's why I don't have it in my pages and probably its the why you can't create files.

  • copy run.bat to run.cmd (or better yet, edit and save it as run.cmd)

  • start run.cmd

Did it run on your side? It complains here I don't have \lib\tools.jar.
Maybe I need to install the SDK (OpenJDK_6_b27_SDK_GA5.zip), I will check on that.

Any idea if SmartCVS 7.1.7 (last reported on OS/2) will run with OpenJDK 1.6 ?
- http://www.rbri.org/data/uploads/downloads/smart/smartcvs-7_1_7.wpi
or an older one
- 7.1.4 - ftp://cyberia.dnsalias.com/pub/filebase/gfd/app/java/SMARTCVS.ZIP

I get that the Java version is not compatible, but I remember this "SmartSVN, SmartGit" had some option to remove that requirement.

Quote
[C:\HOME\DESKTOP\SMARTCVS\SMARTCVS-7_1_4\lib]java -jar smartcvs.jar
An incompatible Java version has been detected which has been reported to
cause strange bugs. Aborting now.

Please install the latest release of the SUN Java SE Runtime Environment (JRE)
from:
  http://java.sun.com/javase/downloads/
or if it is already installed, make sure it is used.

On SmartGit it was something like:
 java -Xmx512m -Dsun.awt.noerasebackground=true -Dsmartgit.checkIncompatibleJava=false -jar ..\LIB\smartgit.jar

But I'm not sure if there was one for SmartCVS and SmartSVN.

I can make SmartCVS run, but it won't do anything without a license. It used to work. I think they must have changed things on the server.

Code: [Select]
@echo off
rem OS/2 script for SmartCVS, requires JAVA installed

set JAVA_EXE=%1
set SMARTCVS_HOME=..
set SMARTCVS_LIB=%SMARTCVS_HOME%\lib
set SMARTCVS_MAIN_JAR=%SMARTCVS_LIB%\smartCVS.jar

Hi Neil
With your technique I confirm I can run SmarCVS with OpenJDK 1.6 (ArcaOS). Also, like you say, the free trial license server does not longer works so the only way to run it is having an old license file.

I think that with this I'm good with SmartCVS and SmartSVn that are archived in hobbes right now.

Hi.

SmartGit 2.1.8 is working here under ArcaOS 5.0.8 and OpenJDK 1.6.
"Working" means for the moment that the Java application runs, I was able to select the free non-commercial license, selected the location of C:\usr\bin\git.exe, I skipped the github connection and I cloned a repository from Github.
I was not able to push back a change to github, maybe the security things on Github changed with time and something may be missing on this old SmartGit.

Hi Martin,
this browser requires the old Java version 1.1. With that, it runs.

I've created a small startup script that should make the launch successful. In the startup script, the program path and possibly the installation path for Java 1.1 need to be adjusted.

The second script is also called from the program directory and creates a program icon for my script on the desktop.
