Upgrading SDK

[sderrick]

Hi,
I'm upgrading the SDK from 24 to 26.1.0.1 I am using Java 11
I am incorporating the Author component into a java desktop app.
I'm using the following properties for maven.

Code: Select all

<properties>
        <target.web.dir>${project.build.directory}/dist</target.web.dir>
        <jnlp.name>mbep</jnlp.name>		
        <project.build.sourceEncoding>UTF-8</project.build.sourceEncoding>
        <!--<oxygen.sdk.version>24.0.0.2</oxygen.sdk.version>-->
        <oxygen.sdk.version>26.1.0.1</oxygen.sdk.version>
        <maven.compiler.source>1.8</maven.compiler.source>
        <maven.compiler.target>1.8</maven.compiler.target>
    </properties>

I'm seeing an odd behavior and haven't been able to figure out whats up. I'm using Netbeans as my IDE to build the project.
When I run the app from within Netbeans all is well.
When I run it from the command line "java -jar mbep.jar I get a class not found exception
Caused by: java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: com.jidesoft.swing.JideButton
I can see the oxygen-jide-1.0-SNAPSHOT.jar file in the folder with all the rest of the jars.
thanks,
Scott

Hi Scott,
I do not know what is inside the "mbep.jar" library.
As you are running "java -jar mbep.jar" without specifying a classpath and a main class in the command line, I assume that:
1) Either the "mbep.jar" was created to contain inside it the contents of all other JAR libraries.
2) It has inside a META-INF/Manifest.mf which specifies the main class name and also a classpath reference to all necessary JAR libraries. I assume that the META-INF/Manifest.mf's classpath reference does not include the Reference to the jide-related jar's library name or maybe it has a reference to the wrong library name.

Radu

Radu,

You are correct, in my manifest file it lists
oxygen-jide-1.0-20240403.095406-1.jar
but the jar that is included in the build is
oxygen-jide-1.0-SNAPSHOT.jar
I use ant in Netbeans to build the project. Maven builds the manifest.mf file. Trying to figure out why maven is misnaming this jar out of all the 70+ other jars?
the listing in the oxygen folder for oxygen-jide, shows identical jars with different names? One is the name that shows up in teh manifest file, the other is what shows up in my build folder.

still trying to figure out how to resolve this.

For now I have hacked the issue.
During the packaging process I just make a copy with the name listed in the manifest file...

Code: Select all

 <copy tofile="${project.build.directory}/dist/lib/oxygen-jide-1.0-20240403.095406-1.jar" file="${project.build.directory}/dist/lib/oxygen-jide-1.0-SNAPSHOT.jar" force="true" />

It would be nice to be able to force Maven to use the same jar it uses in the dependency plugin as it does in the manfest.mf creation.

HI Scott,
I'm glad you found a workaround, I think the name of the library itself "oxygen-jide-1.0-SNAPSHOT.jar" with that "SNAPSHOT" part usually marking libraries not intended to be used in production might cause Maven to rename the reference to it. I will add an issue to try and change the name of the JAR library on our side for the SDK and remove from it the "-SNAPSHOT" part.

Radu

Radu, thanks, that would be great. I thought the name was odd.

Hello Radu,

I tried to upgrade to version 26.1.0.2 and the issue is still there.
When do you think this will be resolved ?

Isabelle

Hi Isabelle,
Pasting the internal issue ID for future reference here:
EXM-54567 Jide JAR in SDK has "-SNAPSHOT" part

The issue is still opened on our side, if we manage to fix it in the Oxygen 27 release I will update this forum thread.

Regards,
Radu
