X11 Clash with JAVA

Submitted by Anonymous on Mon, 08/12/2002 - 07:22. Developers
Hi Jef,
I wrote a JAVA application, and when I run it, and then start our OLD X11 application
the old X11 application crashes....with the errors as below.
Now this also happens sometimes with Netscape, I am clueless why
this error happens on Solaris with X11. I am running on
JDK1.3.1 and Solaris 8 on a Sparc Ultra 10 system.
Any help, pointers would be of good help.

That doesn`t look too bad.

Looks like your using a colormap (bit depth 8) and when you start the [other] app it steals colors. Your older X11 app is apparently unprepared for this.

I think if you use 16bit depth or limit the colors used by the apps and desktop you won`t get the error.

Hope that helps,

Looks like the other applications -- Netscape browser or Java interpreter -- are using up the colormap, and your application doesn`t deal properly with that. It fails to create a window and then fails when the window is 0x0 (0L, NUL).
