[jira] [Created] (PIVOT-733) Re-enabling JNLP links in Demos

Re-enabling JNLP links in Demos
-------------------------------

                 Key: PIVOT-733
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PIVOT-733
             Project: Pivot
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: demos
    Affects Versions: 2.0
            Reporter: Sandro Martini
            Assignee: Sandro Martini
             Fix For: 2.0.1, 2.1


To better align our Demos to IIA concepts, I'm thinking to re-enable JNLP links for our Demos, so they can run even with Java Web Start as Applications.

And maybe changing the text View with something like "Run as Applet", and add bottom another link like "Run as Application" ...
Note that this could help even to improve the experience to all users that has/had troubles running our Applets (some thread on Pivot-2.0 and the IcedTea plugin on Linux, and some problems on some Dell machines with Windows, etc).

Note that those links was removed by PIVOT-500 issue ( https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PIVOT-500 ), but with latest Java 6 Update 21 and upper (currently 6 Update 24)  there isn't that problem, so now it's safe to re-enable them.

Sandro Martini commented on PIVOT-733:
--------------------------------------

Reverted the change in index.xsl under demos/xsl/ , so now jnlp link are generated in demos.war , tried all under a local Tomcat and Web Start Demos are working so if there aren't objections in a few days I'll commit the (revert) change.

On re-enabling them even in our Web Site probably we have to wait just after the 2.0.1 final release.

Of course then we could do the same even fot Demos running from our Web Site ... but let's see later this.

Sandro Martini commented on PIVOT-733:
--------------------------------------

Note that (moved here from PIVOT-406):
in demo.jnlp.xsl, the root param (set from build.xml) has to be fixed because for web start it need the full codebase (and currently in DesktopApplicationContext this is not read ... for this there will be a dedicated issue for Pivot 2.1).
But in demo.html.xsl that parameter is right, so it could not be changed there (and nor in large-data.xml).

A quick solution for 2.0.1 (without having to touch code), could be to set by hand in build.properties a variable, and use it inside build.xml , see the patch in attach.

For a better solution (for Web Start, because on Applets it already works), in 2.1 maybe handle it using the codebase (read from Web Start BasicService) and overwrite the origin parameter. See the related issue.

--------------------------------------

I'm thinking to set in jnlp files the Java 6 Update 24 (or at least the Update 21) as a requirement to run our Java Web Start Demos ... do you think it's good for most platforms (I've just seen that even Apple has this version now) ?

And maybe update to the Java 6 Update 23 (or at least Update 21) as a recommended requirement for Pivot, as reported in some out txt file, ok ?

Tell me.

Bye
