Test 3
I get to select mode, window pops up, and boom - exit
Perhaps print some stuff to console to check where it crashes ?

Hm, I do print quite a lot of info when an exception is caught. But from the error it seems like the exception itself is causing a new exception to be thrown?

I have put the source code here:

I have compiled a new test which will output more debug information, so it should be possible to pinpoint where the problem occurs on some systems

Is it possible to make stacktrace lines work in gcj ?
Could you post the source + scripts to generate the exe, then I could debug easily myself

This means the code fails here:

Code: [Select]

        if (DEBUG) System.out.println("[createWindow]");
        try {
            Display.setDisplayMode(mode);
        } catch (LWJGLException e) {
            System.out.println("Failed to initialize the display at display mode " + mode.toString());
            System.out.println(e.toString());
            e.printStackTrace();
            return;
        }

        Display.create();
        Display.setFullscreen(fullscreen);

        //sync frame (only works on windows) and linux apparently
        Display.setVSyncEnabled(true);
        Display.setTitle(animator.getName() + " " + animator.getVersion());
        if (DEBUG) System.out.println("[/createWindow]");


My guess is the problem is
Code: [Select]

        Display.setDisplayMode(mode);


I already posted a link to the source code earlier ( www.ninjasoftware.com/download/src.rar ), and the build script is:

Code: [Select]

@echo off

set exename=Main.exe
set main=Main
set deploy=_deploy

echo **Compiling Java files...
rmdir classes /s/q
md classes
javac -classpath c:\java\lwjgl\jar\lwjgl.jar;c:\java\swt\swt.jar -d classes src\*.java src\engine\*.java

echo **Creating JAR...

echo **Removing unused methods...

echo **Repackage jar file as workaround for GCJ out-of-memory bug
rmdir temp /s/q
md temp
copy output_proguard.jar temp
cd temp
jar xf output_proguard.jar
del output_proguard.jar
jar cf output_proguard.jar .
copy output_proguard.jar .. /y
cd ..
rmdir temp /s/q

echo **Compiling to machine code...

pause

echo **Cleaning up
del output.jar
del output_proguard.jar
del output_proguard.o
del %exename%


The Proguard script is

Code: [Select]

-injars       output.jar;c:\java\lwjgl\jar\lwjgl.jar
-outjars      output_proguard.jar
-libraryjars  <java.home>/lib/rt.jar;c:\java\swt\swt.jar
-printmapping proguard.map
-overloadaggressively
-defaultpackage ''
-allowaccessmodification
-dontobfuscate
-dontoptimize
-dontskipnonpubliclibraryclasses
-dontskipnonpubliclibraryclassmembers

-keep public class Main {
    public static void main(java.lang.String[]);
}

-keep class org.lwjgl.opengl.Win32Display
-keep class org.lwjgl.opengl.DisplayMode {*;}
-keep class org.lwjgl.Win32SysImplementation
-keep class org.lwjgl.opengl.Win32ContextImplementation

About stacktrace in gcj, sorry, I do not know. But now you have everything I have, and hopefully you can localize the problem more efficiently... :)

got it!

I am just going to tell you what the problem was, I cannot tell you why it is so, it just is - I am as confused as I can get...

The crash occurs in: GLContext.java, in the getPlatformSpecificFunctionAddress method.

Specifically, it crashes on the line:
String platform_function_name = function.replaceFirst(function_prefix, os_function_prefixes);

HOWEVER (and this is where it gets funny (did I mention it took a looong time to locate?)) it ONLY occurs when locating methods for : NV_vertex_array_range_initNativeFunctionAddresses, specifically:
glFreeMemoryNV, glAllocateMemoryNV and so forth.

The replaceFirst method is meant to replace gl from  glFreeMemoryNV with wgl, becomming: wglFreeMemoryNV.

If I manually change the function.replace... line to:
String platform_function_name = "w" + function;
then *everything* works fine

 :?:

I am totally, completely at a loss as to what is going on - and I have absolutely no idea why it is happening only when running under GCJ, but *somehow* the GCJ code must act weird in some strange corner cases, or something along those lines. (but only on my computer (nVidia))

So, you're code works fine - except for the ghost in the shell.

And I assume your Proguard compiled JAR file will run well, even when you keep the lwjgl.jar away from the classpath?

If not, my first guess would be that Proguard somehow figured out that your platform specific program running path would never occur and thus removed required methods.

This is a quite common problem with Proguard, and any kinds of dynamically loaded code must be included manually.

How about adding

Code: [Select]

-keep class org.lwjgl.opengl.GLContext {*;}


Or, try compile with different Proguard settings? Like turn off

Code: [Select]

-overloadaggressively
-allowaccessmodification


Or, maybe compile with less optimization (omit -O3 and removal of bounds checks)?
 
Just guessing really, sounds very strange....  :roll:

By the way, do you mind putting the GCJ workaround into the next release of the API?

Thanks :)
