[Divunal-devel] Faucet on Windows

[Michael Dartt]

Every time I try to use the Faucet under Win95, I get this when using
faucet.bat:

C:\WINDOWS\DESKTOP\faucet>jre -cp .;javaclasses;javaclasses\swingall.jar
twisted
.reality.client.Faucet
Bad command or file name

C:\WINDOWS\DESKTOP\faucet>echo Exited successfully.
Exited successfully.


And this when using msfaucet.bat:

C:\WINDOWS\DESKTOP\faucet>jview /cp .;javaclasses;javaclasses\swingall.jar
twist
ed.reality.client.Faucet
Microsoft (R) Command-line Loader for Java (tm) Version 1.00.6211

FATAL ERROR: Swing is required for this program to run.
  Please make sure it is installed and that your classpath is set
properly.

ERROR: Could not execute twisted.reality.client.Faucet: Unspecified error


This is with the swing version, btw.  I haven't ever gotten the no-swing
one to work, even with JDK 1.2.

I also had to remove the "@echo off" line from the beginning of the
scripts, otherwise I'd just get "off" (unsurprisingly).

I'm using JDK 1.2.1, installed with Sun's little graphical installer.

Any help would be mighty appreciated, and not just by me, I'm sure.  After
all, I can boot into Linux if this can't get fixed, but telling
prospective users and developers, "Well, to solve your problem, you need a
new OS to run our cross-platform software" probably won't cut it.  :-/

Or maybe I could try the GTK version, seeing as how I've got GIMP
installed....Oh, wait, that means I'd have to compile it, which means I'd
have to download djgpp or make or something....Gotta love Windows....

Thanks in advance, all.
