SWT error on OSX with Maven

问题

I made a sample application where I want to test swt under osx using maven. I've read hundreds of articles and create the display on main thread, but the app throws the same exception.

Could you check my pom file and my sample application?

Thanks for the ideas and your time!

回答1:

You are using <goal>java</goal> which runs your app in the same JVM that Maven is running in. That means you can't pass JVM arguments when your app is launched because a new JVM is not being created.

You have two options:

1. Pass JVM arguments to the JVM that runs Maven (and which therefore also eventually runs your app). On the Mac, this is accomplished by setting the MAVEN_OPTS environment variable:

export MAVEN_OPTS="-XstartOnFirstThread`
(then run Maven)

In this case you can remove all the <arguments> from your <configuration> section as they are unnecessary and have no effect. You can also remove <addClasspath>.

2. Use <goal>exec</goal> which will run java as a regular shell command, and you can pass all the JVM configuration arguments you want to it:

<goals>
  <goal>exec</goal>
</goals>

In this case you do need all the things you have in <arguments> as well as your actual main class, because it's just another argument to the JVM being run as a shell command. You can also add your classpath in a slightly simpler way:

<executable>java</executable>
<arguments>
   <argument>-XstartOnFirstThread</argument>
   <argument>-classpath</argument>
   <classpath/>
   <argument>standalone.App</argument>
</arguments>

This second option is generally more robust because you don't have to deal with Maven doing weird things to the JVM before running your app.

回答2:

You need to specify the -XstartOnFirstThread option when you run an SWT app on MAc OS X.
