I tried running FlickrUppr on Mac OSX 10.4.10 using JDK 1.5.0 and it hangs when I load the LCD module at the get frame line: I tried it on XP in a VM with JDK 1.6.0_02 and it popped up its Flickr auth GUI just fine. Anyone else seen this? I’m also not keen on authorizing FlickrUppr on my Flickr account since it is asking for full access. Maybe I’ll set up a non-pro test account just for it. It would be nice if it just access for posting rights. |

Hello finsprings, welcome to the BUG beta! To my knowledge we haven’t tested the FlickrUppr example app on OSX. We’ll take a look and let you know. |
|
|
Hi Finsprings, I have changed FlickrUppr’s permission to WRITE since it’s sufficient for now. Let me know if you find other issues. Regards, |
|
|
We’ve reproduced your issue on OS X. Solution forthcoming in next SDK release. |
|
|
Hi finsprings, Your defect has been entered, you can view it here: http://bugbeta.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=14 Thanks again! Melinda |
|
|
Thanks! I would have opened it as a bug, but I wasn’t sure if it was just my setup. Glad you could reproduce it. Now if we could just get Apple to give us 1.6 with a JIT….;-) |
|
|
I get similar behavior under Linux. |
|
|
Any time frame on the release of the next SDK? Or is there a file I can pull from SVN to patch it for now? I like to avoid my XP VM as much as possible ;-) |

Hi koolatron, Welcome to the BUG beta program! I was unable to reproduce this issue on my Linux box in the following environments: Ubuntu release 7.04 (feisty) Ubuntu release 7.04 (feisty) Could you please post your Linux, Eclipse, and Java version? |
|
|
Hi finsprings, We are working on a schedule now. And… will have a new build very soon. Will keep you posted! Thank you for the inquiry. |

Brian, I’m encountering the same problem on both my Linux machines, wherein upon trying to start applications that use the LCD module the BUG hangs. Specifically, it creates the LCD output window and then becomes unresponsive. Here’s my setup: (laptop): (desktop): |
|
|
OK, I remedied this on the laptop on my own. It seems that despite my having installed sun-java6-jre, Eclipse didn’t know about it or where to find it. After pointing it to the right spot, I get better results; but since I’m not actually at my desktop at the moment I’ve yet to try it there with Eclipse 3.2.1. |
|
|
That's good news Kool. I'm interested to see what the results are on 3.2.1. We do recommend you upgrade Eclipse to 3.2.2 or 3.3: http://bugbeta.com/wiki/index.php/Installation_of_Eclipse_%26_Dragonfly_%28the_BUG_SDK%29#Install_Eclipse_Classic |
|
|
Besides the JRE hangup that I described (which is now resolved for both machines), Eclispe 3.2.1 and Dragonfly seem to be working without any problems. Since there aren’t any (glaring) problems with the 3.2.1 setup, I’m going to leave it as-is for now. If I encounter problems that I can’t reproduce on 3.2.2 or 3.3, my first recourse will probably be to upgrade. |

Just an update to the original OS X/ LCD Module issue, we’re continuing to work through this. It turns out there are some compatibility issues between SWT and AWT that are causing a deadlock when we try to create an AWT frame in the LCD Modlet. |
|
|
Having the same new Frame() problem in LCDModlet.java:95 on OS/X 10.4.10, eclipse 3.3.0 if there’s a workaround, please let us know! |
|
|
At this point the only workaround is to use Linux or Windows (via parallels, etc) to write GUI apps. We were hoping there was some fix for this SWT/AWT issue but we’re not having much luck. Most likely we’ll have to re-implement the UI in AWT. We’ll keep you posted on our progress. One question, would a purely command-line driven Virtual BUG with LCD support be sufficient, or do people like the GUI Virtual BUG? |
|
|
i’ve written a pure AWT bug simulator, which can be found here. warning! the graphics and layout are not very sophisticated, but it is completely serviceable. It can handle the 2×4 buttons, adding/removing Modules from Slots, and has a Display canvas. please feel free to replace the SWT version with this one;) |
|
|
Bob, cool! We’ll take a look. |
|
|
i realize that I forgot the callback interface. any progress on this? thanks, bob |
|
|
Bob, We are almost finished with the conversion to AWT, thanks for your contribution. Alex Kravets, Bug Labs |
|
|
excellent—i’m happy to alpha test a new drop whenever its ready! |

Hello ~ A console-based Virtual BUG has been uploaded to BUGnet. The app title is com.buglabs.bug.emulator.console and is available here: http://buglabs.net/application/show/10. Basically, you use the command line to fire button events and connect modules rather than a GUI window. It's not going to win any beauty contests but it's functional. Here is a sample how to interact with it: (: help
|
|
|
cool! i will try it later today should I try to tie it in to my AWT app? or are you working on one of those, too? |
|
|
ok, i spent that last 30 minutes trying to figure out how to wire this thing in to an application. can you please provide instructions on how to make it work with, say, BugWeather? thanks |
