But our application service provider uses two different proxies: one
for our internet access and another (different address and different
port) for providing the java applications via JWS. Therefore I have to
configure the OS X system (system prefs) for the second proxy (so that
JWS will run) and to use Firefox instead of Safari as browser. In
Firefox I can configure a proxy (in difference to the system prefs)
for the internet access. Some java apps run fine, but one (important)
application run into an error ("no browser configured"). Under Windows
I' ve tested, that this app uses the browser, which is configured in
javaws.cfg.
Any idea, how I can "tell to jws" the browser tu use?
We are talking about the BasicService.showDocument method here
(where the "no browser configured" message is originating)? As
far as I have been able to determine, it uses the system wide
preference defined by Safari's prefs dialog.
Interestingly, it looks like Safari implements this by setting
up bindings for HTML, HTTP and HTTPS with Launch Services. If
you look in ~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.LaunchServices.plist
for your browser's bundle ID (e.g. org.mozilla.firefox) you can
see the bindings it sets up. If the URL given to showDocument
does not hit one of these bindings, that could possibly be the
cause of the error message.
Note that if you change the bindings, you may need to jump through
a hoop or two to get them recognized -- do a google on lsregister
(its a command line tool under LaunchServices.framework).
