0.2.4 Applet is just a grey box.
0.2.4 Applet is just a grey box.
I upgraded tonight and now the applet appears blank on external browsers (works fine internally). My config is IIS on port 80 hosts html with applet. Stream is on port 8080 and host and port are manually configured in the html. This worked great on the previous version. Is there a way for me to get the old version back? I was a bit too confident and overwrote it.
jre 5.0
Ahhh... that was weird, so locally the applet worked on a machine running an older version of the JRE but my external box, which had another version that previously worked, did not work. :-\ Guess I should read the info more closely. I'd still like to find the previous version of the applet if possible since it is evidently more compatible.
Anyway, I got it working by installing JRE 5, I'm just surprised that it isn't more backward compatible.

The new applet should be compatible as before... It really should.
But I have had other reports from people facing the same problem as you now...
I have to investigate it a bit more and see if I can find anything strange.
You can get the old version of Yawcam (ver. 0.2.3) here!

Thanks for the Quick Reply!
I'm a programmer too... I know all about "should be". LOL... Thanks for the quick reply.
I'm still experimenting with yawcam but I'm pretty close to settling on it for the long term. I do hope you get your C version working. I love to code and support Java but it does hog the system resources. :-\

Re: Thanks for the Quick Reply!
Yes, I agree! The performance of java (and also yawcam) are not the way I would like it. It eats system resources like no other language. Horrible!RRRRyan wrote:I love to code and support Java but it does hog the system resources. :-\

Follow Up
Well, in case there was any question everything works great when I simply replace the yawapplet.class file with the one from version 0.2.3.
BTW... if you think Java is a hog, try anything in .NET. 20mb foot print for "hello world"... LOL. I haven't checked but I bet that's got Java beat.

I think I found something
I have made a new applet now. (This time it's test compiled with java 1.1.8 and really should be compatible )
Check if this applet works better:
http://www.yawcam.com/newapplet/YawApplet.class
One of the things I have changed is that I now use Color.white instead of Color.WHITE. Because the latter was apparently not 1.1.8 compatible . You learn new things every day
I hope this new applet works...

Yes, I know the applet that came with 0.2.4 didn't work with MSJAVA. My question was if this new applet:

...works with MSJAVA.
Maybe I wasn't clear enough.
