New Version Broken?

[gangrel-br]

My game is running pretty well with an old jinput release, but when I switch it to the lastest one it breaks...

Heres the stack trace:

1   2   3   4   5   6   7   8   9   10   11   12   13   14   15   16   17   18   19   20   21   22   23   24   25   26   27   28   29   30   31   32   33   34   35   36   37   38

What am I missing here?

This looks more like a bug of the JDK... What version are you running?

[gangrel-br]

j2sdk1.4.2_05

Games published by our own members! Check 'em out!

Hmm
 Whats in CVS works fine on my test box, using 1.4.2_05 on that too.

I'm using the lastest binaries (I can't compile from src ATM - no HD free space for the DirectX SDK...   )

Statement.  You are using JDK1.5.x

Run java -version.  if it says your running 1.4 then I pormise you your scripts are running some other version of java and not the default one on your system.

Class Loaders in 1.5 made an incompatable change in how they handle the class name.  I am told it was to close a security loophole. 1.4 and before allow foo/bar , 1.5 insists it be foo.bar.

I believe I already made this chnage and posted it back to Jutils.  Auto-builds have bene broken for some time.  Grab the latest version form CVS and ant it and you should be fine.

I'll try to test from the cvs tonight.

Anyway, I'm not using Java 5, I never installed it and won't do so in the next few months.

You ARE aware that since 1.4 the Vm has had an auto-updater?
