I fixed one blatant Motif error, dereferencing a null pointer, but there are many obvious null-pointer dereferences in the same physical file. I did not feel like fixing all of them... Currently, the plugin is dieing during various internal Motif/Xt interactions to set up the initial Widgets and so on. I have compiled Open Motif with debugging symbols, but not Xt. I don't really feel like tracking down all of the reasons that this might not be working. Is all of this just because the plugin is trying to create a child of the Mozilla window? The latest problem occurs deep in Xt and triggers the xtError callback in awt, which simply prints "Xt error" and then throws a NullPointerException. Not very helpful. How do I access the actual Xt error message? The man pages are extremely unhelpful... Sigh. I wonder if LessTif would work? Maybe cause different errors... /Joe p.s. I welcome advice from anyone more familiar with the bowels of awt/Motif/Xt. To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-java" in the body of the message
