Launching eclipse application with java web start generates java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: org.eclipse.swt.SWTError

问题

I have an Eclipse application, for which I created the feature for generating the jnlp file. I built the application with maven tycho, for architectures x86 and x86_64.

When I try to start the jnlp for the application, I see that all the resources are downloaded, but the application does not start. If I try to open it in a broswer, it starts. I checked the logs for the first case and I got the following:

Here is the part of the pom for generating the resources:

<plugin>
            <groupId>org.eclipse.tycho</groupId>
            <artifactId>target-platform-configuration</artifactId>
            <version>${tycho-version}</version>
            <configuration>
                <resolver>p2</resolver>
                                    <ignoreTychoRepositories>true</ignoreTychoRepositories>
                <environments>
                    <environment>
                        <os>win32</os>
                        <ws>win32</ws>
                        <arch>x86</arch>
                    </environment>
                    <environment>
                        <os>win32</os>
                        <ws>win32</ws>
                        <arch>x86_64</arch>
                    </environment>
                </environments>
            </configuration>
        </plugin>

I did check that the resources are referenced in the jnlp file:

<resources os="Windows" arch="x86">
<jar href="plugins/org.eclipse.swt.win32.win32.x86_3.7.2.v3740f.jar"/>

I also checked the cache and the resources are downloaded.

I just can't find a reason for the application not starting with Java web start, when there are no problems with starting it direcly in the browser.

Any help is appreciated!

回答1:

I got the same error for my application. The project was built using buckminster instead, but for x86 and x86_64 too.

Your application does start via the browser, because this is a 32-bit application and the will invoke your webstart as a 32-bit application.

Starting your application via the Windows Explorer, a 64-bit application is started, which runs into trouble.

Here is the solution that worked for me:
Edit your jnlp file containing the features:
Modify (the orginal jnlp file, which does not work)

...
</resources>
<resources os="Windows" arch="x86">
    <jar href="plugins/org.eclipse.swt.win32.win32.x86_3.7.0.v3735b.jar"/>
    <jar href="plugins/org.eclipse.core.filesystem.win32.x86_1.1.300.v20110423-0524.jar"/>
    <jar href="plugins/org.eclipse.equinox.launcher.win32.win32.x86_1.1.100.v20110502.jar"/>
</resources>
<resources os="Windows" arch="x86_64">
    <jar href="plugins/org.eclipse.core.filesystem.win32.x86_64_1.1.300.v20110423-0524.jar"/>
    <jar href="plugins/org.eclipse.swt.win32.win32.x86_64_3.7.0.v3735b.jar"/>
    <jar href="plugins/org.eclipse.equinox.launcher.win32.win32.x86_64_1.1.100.v20110502.jar"/>
</resources>

into (the new jnlp file, which should work)

    ...
<resources os="Windows" arch="x86">
    <jar href="plugins/org.eclipse.swt.win32.win32.x86_3.7.0.v3735b.jar"/>
    <jar href="plugins/org.eclipse.core.filesystem.win32.x86_1.1.300.v20110423-0524.jar"/>
    <jar href="plugins/org.eclipse.equinox.launcher.win32.win32.x86_1.1.100.v20110502.jar"/>
<resources os="Windows">
    <jar href="plugins/org.eclipse.core.filesystem.win32.x86_64_1.1.300.v20110423-0524.jar"/>
    <jar href="plugins/org.eclipse.swt.win32.win32.x86_64_3.7.0.v3735b.jar"/>
    <jar href="plugins/org.eclipse.equinox.launcher.win32.win32.x86_64_1.1.100.v20110502.jar"/>
</resources>

In other words: remove the arch="x86_64" filter.

I assume this is an error of the equinox launcher. But its real cause stays a secret to me.

P.S: Removing the arch-filter only for the org.eclipse.swt.win32.win32.x86_64 bundle works too.
