B4J Question Can not run B4J simple app on ubuntu

[microbox]

I created a simple gui B4j based app. compiled in release mode and copied the executable jar file into a usb. And plug it on my odroid U3 device with ubuntu os. When I right click the jar file, It has no option to run the application. I also tried to follow this guide(http://askubuntu.com/questions/192914/how-run-a-jar-file-with-a-double-click) But I'm getting error.

I'm new to linux/Ubuntu...Sorry if this is not the right place to post it here. Hope anyone can help me out.

Thank you in advance.

You should install Java 7 JRE. It will not work with Java 6.

Hello... I issued this command "sudo apt-get install openjdk-7-jre" after download I right click the jar file and there is an option "Open with OpenJdk Java 7 Runtime" but when I select it, I have the following form displays...please see attached image.


What do you think I'm missing?

Thank you and kind regards.

As the error says: you must mark your jar as executable.
sudo chmod +x /home/odroid/Public/RFID/RfidTest.jar

 

[microbox]

Hi MaFu..thank you for the time. I did follow your suggestion. After issuing the command, I don't have the warning display form. But the jar file does not execute(double clicking/ or right click and open with openjdk Java 7 Runtime").

 

[Erel]

Try to run it from the command line with java -jar <jar file>

 

[microbox]

Try to run it from the command line with java -jar <jar file>

Hello Erel, issuing the command gives me..

Any idea what I'm lacking?

 

[Erel]

According to this answer: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/...aphics-device-initialization-failed-for-es2-s it seems like you need to update GTK.

Thanks Erel... I did installed gtk3 with this command
sudo apt-get install libgtk-3-dev then java -jar RfidTest.jar but same result I'm really confused.

 

[Erel]

Sorry but I don't know.

 

[microbox]

Sorry but I don't know.

Oh It's okay... thank you for the great support. I will try to get back to it another time perhaps.

Hi Microbox

Have you sorted out your issue ? Maybe I can help. I have Ubuntu 12.04 running. I upgraded to Java 7. I have written an IP server app which connects to a window NT 2008 server running SQL Server 2005. I have a client program that running on windows vista which connects to the Ubuntu Machine and send a packet every 10ms, assuming the last packet was acknowledged.

We are currently testing the viability of B4J as our new development platform. I also run the server app on the window NT server. The Client app can connect to both servers Linux/Windows. I have 18 connections to both and recorded 1,496,323 packet writes to the SQL DB in just 3 hours.

Erel, if you are reading this, in the server app I have a client class, am I correct in assuming that each time a new instance of the client socket class is created it is on a new thread, not the main thread.

So Microbox drop me a line if you need any help.

Regards

John.

Hello John.. I was using an odroid U3 device with their version of ubuntu. And in their forum told me that the device have issues regarding JavaFX (I think it's about the hardware performance) application running on them. I will try to get a beaglebone black soon to test B4J.

Thank you anyway.
