Re: Programmatic access to the notification area (aka the System Tray)



If you have a look in the demo source code, you will see that the JDIC demo is
using package


	import org.jdesktop.jdic.tray.*;

but in Java 6 the SystemTray is in the java.awt package, so of course this will fail.
In fact it doesn't matter which JVM you are using (except the class file format) in
any case it will fail if the JDIC classes or their native parts are not available.

Here's a case in point about being mystified on OSX. I ran the WebSTart demo for TrayIcon on OSX 10.4, where I have JRE 1.4, J2SE5, and J2SE6 installed. The demo fails to launch, and in the error details window I see the JNLP file that you pointed out has no OSX resource element. But there's also an Exception tab in that Window. So I checked that, and it's a NoClassDefFound exception for class SystemTray. So it appears WebStart is running with J2SE5 (since that's the version I see if I type java -version in a Terminal window). But then I launched the Java Preferences.app that came with J2SE6, and selected J2SE6 as the first Java version to try for WebStart and desktop apps. But this seems to have no effect, as I still get the Exception looking for class SystemTray when I launch a WebStart app.

So is Java Preferences.app only supposed to work if I already have J2SE6 as my default Java version? Or does it just not work? How do I tell OSX what my default Java version should be?
