Hi everyone. I've just installed Sun-jdk-1.6.0.15, Orca-2.26.3 and |
| 2 |
Java-access-bridge-1.6.0, all installed with Portage inside a Gnome |
| 3 |
terminal. I know there is a page of instructions about how to build and |
| 4 |
install the Java Access Bridge on the Orca website at |
| 5 |
http://live.gnome.org/Orca, but I assumed the Gentoo ebuild of Java |
| 6 |
Access Bridge would do all this for me. When I thought I'd installed |
| 7 |
everything correctly, I went to the demo folder of the Sun-jdk and typed |
| 8 |
'java -jar Notepad.jar'. orca said that the Java Access bridge was |
| 9 |
being loaded and then that the application was being registered. Orca |
| 10 |
promptly cut out and when I pressed Alt and Tab to get to where I |
| 11 |
thought the Notepad Java application would be, Orca said 'Notepad |
| 12 |
Inaccessible'. When I alt-tabbed back to the terminal window from where |
| 13 |
I'd started the Java Notepad, the screen was full of messages which had |
| 14 |
apparently been produced by the Java program as it tried to launch |
| 15 |
Notepad. Unfortunately, I can find no way of capturing these, so any |
| 16 |
help with this would be appreciated. For some reason or other, although |
| 17 |
it appears to be correctly installed, my Java Access Bridge is not |
| 18 |
working with Orca and I have no idea why this is. I have an AMD64 |
| 19 |
system which runs Java in 64-bit mode only. The Orca page about Java |
| 20 |
Access Bridge mentions that you need a file called something like |
| 21 |
libjava-access-bridge.so which I do not appear to have. Could this be |
| 22 |
the cause of my problem. |

Many thanks for any help. |
