Re: [OctDev] Need for JHandles/Linux tester

[Thomas Treichl]

Paul, Michael,

as you expected java can be installed fine now via 'pkg install 
<java-VER.tar.gz>' also on my i386 Mac. But I was not successful with bringing 
jhandles working... The 'f.dispose ()' doesn't close my window (once again as 
expected).

So i continued and downloaded this jogl universal-binary from 
https://jogl.dev.java.net. I installed this in ~/tmp (where the real path for 
the jogl libs then is ~/tmp/jogl-1.1.1-pre-20070707-macosx-universal/lib).

I changed into extra/jhandles/src and edited the ./configure script with your 
suggestions:

  HAVE_JAVA=yes
  JAVAC=javac
  JAR=jar
  JOGL_JAR=~/tmp/jogl-1.1.1-pre-20070707-macosx-universal/lib/jogl.jar
  OCTAVE_JAR=~/octave/java-1.2.0/octave.jar
  OCTAVE_PATHSEP=:

before this part of code in configure (in about line 2800):

  CONFIGURE_OUTPUTS="Makeconf"
  STATUS_MSG="
  octave commands will install into the following directories:
     m-files:   $mpath
     oct-files: $opath
     binaries:  $xpath

'./configure && make' does a good job then. But however I startup octave I get a 
'jogl not found' error (doesn't matter if I export DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH and/or PATH 
environment).
