B4J Question [ABMaterial] GridBuilder and Java11

janderkan · Aug 19, 2019

On Java 11 it is not possible to run a .jar file .
I tried pack it with B4JPackager11 but I only get a blank window.
This is the output from run_debug.bat

B4X:

C:\2Work\1C\B4J\B4JPackager11\Objects\temp\build\bin>java.exe @release_java_modules.txt -m b4j/com.ab.main

Is the source code available? Does it work when running from the IDE?

No I dont have the source code, but in post #21 of this thread, AlwaysBusy states that you have the source code.

Erel · Aug 19, 2019

Lets wait for @alwaysbusy to try it with Java 11 from the IDE.

alwaysbusy · Aug 19, 2019

Here is the source code. It does use a custom library I wrote (ABCanvas) but for the moment I don't seem to be able to locate the source code for this library. I will have to dive into my backups of 2016.

Received the source from alwaysbusy, it works fine when started from IDE, but the error from run_debug.bat is the same.

Erel · Aug 19, 2019

Does it work if you remove this line:
#VirtualMachineArgs: -Dprism.order=sw
?

Then it will not even work in the IDE.

Erel · Aug 19, 2019

This is the problem. You need to modify B4JPackager 11 and add it here:
Line 281:

B4X:

p.StartInfo.Arguments = "@release_java_modules.txt -Dprism.order=sw -m ${TargetModule}/${PackageName}.main";

In my case, in order for run_debug to work I also change line 297 to

B4X:

java.exe @release_java_modules.txt -Dprism.order=sw -m ${TargetModule}/${PackageName}.main

Does this need to a future option for B4JPackager where you can select if JavaFX should use the graphics card or not? Or enable additional command line arguments?

This will be added.

WORKS PERFECT.

I am sorry to tell you that you only changed line 297 and forgot line 281

Erel · Aug 19, 2019

The relevant line is 283 and it was changed:

Please look at post #9

In release 1.13 Run does not work, Run_debug works.
Adding both line 281 and 297 , Run and Run_debug works.

I've tested the new version of B4JPackager (v 1.13) and it works correctly for this case. The only thing you have to add manually to run_debug.bat is the -dark command line parameter (if you want dark mode - which seems to be the preferred mode for ABMGruidBuilder). For run.exe, use it with the -dark command line argument. Alternative would be again to change B4JPackager's code to include -dark command line option (in the same places (with new line numbers) as this fix). Either that, or @Erel produces another B4JPackager11 that allows for command line arguments.

I used v 1.12 and I got the error i post #1
I changed line 281 and 297 and it worked great.
With v1.13 I am back to the same error.

OliverA · Aug 19, 2019

Did you change the VMArgs global variable (in B4JPackager11) to:

B4X:

Private VMArgs As String = "-Dprism.order=sw"

This is new info, you cannot find it in this thread.
This is the code from v1.13

B4X:

   Private VMArgs As String

So if you run from IDE it does not work, no command line arguments.

Adding your change it works fine.
