Hi,

I've been developing several applications in Java (diablo-jdk15) and am qui=
te=20
satisfied with the result on FreeBSD and other OS.=20

My only complaint so far is that I haven't had any success printing with Ja=
va.=20
I'm using CUPS-1.2.2.=20
Every little bits of code I find on the net do not work in FreeBSD. Is this=
 a=20
known issue? Any workaround?

Here's one small bit of code I've tried to get to work, but throws an=20
exception:

//START
import java.awt.*;
import java.awt.print.*;
import java.awt.geom.*;


class PrintObject implements Printable
{
   public int print (Graphics g, PageFormat f, int pageIndex)
   {
      Graphics2D g2 =3D (Graphics2D) g;  // Allow use of Java 2 graphics on
                                       // the print pages :

      Rectangle2D rect =3D new Rectangle2D.Double(f.getImageableX(),
                                                f.getImageableY(),
                                                f.getImageableWidth(),
                                                f.getImageableHeight());

      Ellipse2D circle =3D new Ellipse2D.Double(100,100,100,100);

      switch (pageIndex)
      {
         case 0 : g2.setColor(Color.black);   // Page 1 : print a rectangle
                  g2.draw(rect);
                  return PAGE_EXISTS;
         case 1 : g2.setColor(Color.red);     // Page 2 : print a circle
                  g2.draw(circle);
                  return PAGE_EXISTS;
         default: return NO_SUCH_PAGE;        // No other pages
      }
   }
}

public class Sample1
{
   public static void main (String[] args)
   {
      PrinterJob job =3D PrinterJob.getPrinterJob();

      job.setPrintable(new PrintObject());

      if (job.printDialog())
      {

         try { job.print(); }
         catch (PrinterException e) { System.out.println(e); }
      }
   }
}
