Re: NetBeans crashing



well, we've spent a considerate amount of time on it already but can't figure out the problem.
We've fixed other problems that were connected with fonts on mac but this one resists fiercely.


http://www.netbeans.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=57664 if you want to watch the progress or have some information that could help us fix it.

Regards

Correct - I'm using NB to develop Web-apps, hopefully someone at NB is seeing this, and maybe is able to figure out what is going on. And while I'm posting, noticed
that Apple are about to have a WWDC talk about J2ME development. Let us (read: at least me) hope that they have ported the J2ME toolkit - so that the folks over at Netbeans are able to
use it and ship the mobile-developer-tool add on to Netbeans. Have You tries it on windows, it ROCKS! *BIG*
Please Apple, be a s(port) make my wish come true

Ingress:
*Mobile Development with Xcode for J2ME Devices Enterprise IT
*Java applications for mobile devices represent one of the fastest-growing application segments today. Developers on Mac OS X have a choice of MIDP (Mobile Information Device Profile) SDKs and tools. This session will cover the entire process of developing and testing MIDP 1.0 and MIDP 2.0 midlets on Mac OS X, and then deploying them to embedded J2ME JVMs.


Anyone want to slip some NDA on this one...

    that's the same crash we're getting.

    are you using/creating webapp project by any chance?
    that's the scenario with increased probability of a crash. No idea
    why, but for Netbeans module project type or plain java, it
    doesn't happen. I'm using nb 4.1 on mac on a daily basis and don't
    have any crashes in my working copy. However I manage to get
    multiple ones during a day on my testing copy of netbeans, mostly
    when playing around with webapps.

    Any hints, comments, help appreciated.

        I see you mention Vera fonts, I do not have these installed on
        my system, but netbeans 4.1beta seems to crash a lot anyway.
        Netbeans crashes as far as i can tell, when it is either
        recompiling or searching libraries. (this is just an
        impression i got)

        Anyways it almost always crashes on thread 14, and it always
        writes this in the log file:
        *Java_sun_awt_font_NativeFontWrapper_getFontMetrics
        *but aside from what is mentioned in the log file, I have no
        clue what so ever about why. I thought a while back that it
        had something to do with me changing
        the editor font to monaco, but it crashes all the same with
        the default selected font - "monospaced 13"

        One of my 100 crash log entries:
        Thread 14 Crashed:
        0 libobjc.A.dylib 0x908311ec objc_msgSend + 0xc
        1 libawt.jnilib 0x78f12360
        Java_sun_awt_font_NativeFontWrapper_getFontMetrics + 0xf4

        Indeed there are Bitstream Vera font files there. Probably
        installed by
        NeoOffice/J. But I am kind of hesitant to say these are bad
        fonts given the
        reputation of Bitstream and popularity of Vera.


I'm not suggesting "bad" in the sense of malformed files. I'm only suggesting that they might lead to a manifestation of the problem, not that they are the primary cause. The fonts themselves could be perfectly good, but could simply precipitate a bug that can be avoided by removing fonts.

        Font problems may be hard to pin to a specific malformed font.
        For
        example, some versions of Java on Mac OS X would misbehave if
        there were
        certain duplicate fonts in the user's Fonts folder. The fonts
        themselves
        were apparently OK. Something just objected to the duplication of
        a font's
        name, or couldn't figure out the override.


I didn't configure NetBeans to use Vera fonts. Can the app crash even if it only interates the bad fonts not actually use them?


Hard to say. I've seen it go both ways. And I've seen it fail simply from the number of fonts present, not anything related to a bad font or a duplicated font or anything else discernible.
