help on swarm 2.1.1 for Linux

[raul.bagni]

Hello,

I'm a new Swarm user and I'm in trouble.

I have, on my PC, a Linux SuSE 7.0 distribution with:
        gcc 2.95.2,
        tcl 8.3.1,
        tk  8.3.1,
        blt 2.4q,
        libpng 2.1.0.

I downloaded from your web site:
        xpm  3.4k,
        libffi 1.2.0,
        zlib 1.1.3;
all packages were successfully installed (with test passed if exist).

I also installed the blackdown jdk 1.2.2.

Finally I set up the swarm 2.1.1, swarmapps 2.1.1, jheatbugs 2.1 and
jmousetrap 2.1.



There is an error in heatbugs documentation. In README file you say to
use
        make CPPFLAGS=-DUSE_PIXMAP
if someone want to see the pixel map (in form of little ants). This is
not correct while I must use the command
        make EXTRACPPFLAGS=-DUSE_PIXMAP
otherwise I overwrite the original CPPFLAGS and the C preprocessor can't
define the long long int variables (gnu extension).

In Objective C I obtain all desired results, but, if I use the pixmap
I'm
not able to probe the objects (clicking the right mouse button). Why ?

In Java I compile (bytecode) all the .java files. I create the swarm.jar
and all the samples .class files, but, when I run the
command

        javaswarm StartHeatbugs

I receive, in stderr, the message:
> Exception in thread "main" java.lang.UnsatisfiedLinkError: create$forClass
>         at StartHeatbugs.main(StartHeatbugs.java, Compiled Code)

Please note that jdk is not wrong. I can compile and run a few samples
and all look right.

Can you help me ?
