FYI

I have update the website with a (very) small tutorial describing how to use SIDL Fiddle to modify the bank window.

As for the problem, sorry if I'm not explaining it well.
Let me see if I can explain it better.
I load up the program.
I select the Default directory (I did this just to test it).
I've tried other directories but it won't load my custom directoery at the moment.
I select say the bank window. I click the EQUI_Bankwnd.xml.
I see at the bottom of the window where it says it's parsing files.
Seems to be doing fine.
Then it gets to the EQUI_Feedbackwnd.xml and it stops. It sits on that files in the parsing listing. No elements are loaded.
The Program just stalls dead.

Nothing else I can do so I just close it.

Hope that was a little better, it's midnight here and it's been a long day. heh

Anyhow, have a good weekend.

Perk

P.S. I'm not doubting it's WinXP and some evil Java crap MS did somewhere. Probably Microsofts sloppy uninstall of Virtual Machine or something. Not sure if that has anything to do with it. But I'm probably going to be reinstalling on sunday and I'll start with a fresh install and see how that goes. It will probably work just great them *Hope Hope*

This is the feedback xml in the default folder? That is odd. Does the DOS window have any error messages? Did I ask that before?

I wonder if you are still getting out of memory exceptions. I may have to consider an alternative XML parsing library; seems like the apache/jdom ones are huge memory hogs.

I would recommend trying the 1.3 JVM as well, but I know that isn't always an option for some folks. I'm just so unimpressed with the memory footprint of 1.4 I don't even have it on my PC. It is very annoying and incompatible with previous versions of Java, IMHO.

Talking Cannot get past splash screen

Hmm, I have installed Java 1.3.1_07 and version 0.7.2 of SIDL fiddle.
I run the batch file and get the option to choose the eq directory, but after I choose the directory, I get the following error messages.

F:EQ Related\fiddle_0_7_2>java -jar fiddle.jar
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org/jdom/JDOMException
at com.barbre.fiddle.menus.InterfaceMenu.<init>(InterfaceMenu.java:34)

at com.barbre.fiddle.Fiddle.getInstance(Fiddle.java:5 2)
at com.barbre.fiddle.Fiddle.main(Fiddle.java:165)

Any advice? I am running an XP2600+ with 512MB

Cheers!

Yes it's the feedback XML in the default folder.
The DOS window does not show any error. I even took the liberty of using the -debug arguement to see if any additional info was available and nothing. the Software just stops working at the feedback window. It actually won't even load any custom folders.

I'll dump 1.4.1 and go back to 1.3 again and see if that doesn't anything with the new version. I'll post here with my findings.

Thanks again Ambros.

OMG, with your new version of Fiddle and uninstalling 1.4.1 and reinstalling 1.3.1 java it works! With the original bat file commands.

The parser is still kind of slow and stalls for a second on the feedback window. BUT it loads all the directories I have and I can now get productive! hehe

Thanks again.

Okay, go ahead and call me incredibly stupid, but how do you get the program to actually *run*? Downloaded, unzipped into a folder, none of the files seem to actually start the program though ...

Click the Run.bat. It's in the directory.

You have to have Java installed from Ambros's site. He has a link to it from there.

Java link

You need to download the runtime libraries for 0.7.* and unzip them in the same folder as the program files. JDom is in the runtime libraries. http://www.barbre44.com/downloads.html

I've done all of the above: DLed the libraries, the latest version of SIDL Fiddle and the correct version of the JAVA utility. (1.3.1.something) from the link on the SIDL Fiddle download page.

I can load SIDL Fiddle jujst fine, but as soon as I try to open a file, any file, I get an Out Of memory error. It doesn't crash the program, like it did with 0.64 but I still can't view or edit any files.

I'm running XP Pro on a P4 1.8 with 512mb Ram. (I think I read somewhere to set up a larger swap file, preferably on a separate HD, which is how my system is already configured and it still doesn't work)

Any thoughts? Suggestions?

Realising my stupidity, I downloaded the runtime libraries and can confirm that the program now runs error free
Havent noticed any memory errors yet either.

Ambros, I got a new one for you.

This happens when I try to open the player window from the elements screen (FILE|Open Screen), I'm using Mafoo's and wanted to edit a couple of things out. When I try to have it load from the elements screen to the WYSIWYG screen this scrolls by in the Dos window.

Code:
C:\fiddle>java -jar fiddle.jar Exception occurred during event dispatching: java.lang.NullPointerException at com.barbre.fiddle.widgets.Gauge.paint(Gauge.java:4 4) at javax.swing.JComponent.paintChildren(Unknown Source) at javax.swing.JComponent.paint(Unknown Source) at javax.swing.JComponent.paintChildren(Unknown Source) at javax.swing.JComponent.paint(Unknown Source) at javax.swing.JLayeredPane.paint(Unknown Source) at javax.swing.JComponent.paintChildren(Unknown Source) at javax.swing.JComponent.paint(Unknown Source) at javax.swing.JComponent.paintChildren(Unknown Source) at javax.swing.JComponent.paint(Unknown Source) at com.barbre.fiddle.widgets.InternalFrame.paint(Inte rnalFrame.java:77) at javax.swing.JComponent.paintChildren(Unknown Source) at javax.swing.JComponent.paint(Unknown Source) at javax.swing.JLayeredPane.paint(Unknown Source) at javax.swing.JComponent.paintChildren(Unknown Source) at javax.swing.JComponent.paint(Unknown Source) at javax.swing.JViewport.paint(Unknown Source) at javax.swing.JComponent.paintChildren(Unknown Source) at javax.swing.JComponent.paint(Unknown Source) at javax.swing.JComponent.paintChildren(Unknown Source) at javax.swing.JSplitPane.paintChildren(Unknown Source) at javax.swing.JComponent.paint(Unknown Source) at javax.swing.JComponent.paintChildren(Unknown Source) at javax.swing.JComponent.paint(Unknown Source) at javax.swing.JComponent.paintChildren(Unknown Source) at javax.swing.JComponent.paint(Unknown Source) at javax.swing.JLayeredPane.paint(Unknown Source) at javax.swing.JComponent.paintChildren(Unknown Source) at javax.swing.JComponent.paint(Unknown Source) at java.awt.GraphicsCallback$PaintCallback.run(Unknow n Source) at sun.awt.SunGraphicsCallback.runOneComponent(Unknow n Source) at sun.awt.SunGraphicsCallback.runComponents(Unknown Source) at java.awt.Container.paint(Unknown Source) at javax.swing.JFrame.update(Unknown Source) at sun.awt.RepaintArea.update(Unknown Source) at sun.awt.windows.WComponentPeer.handleEvent(Unknown Source) at java.awt.Component.dispatchEventImpl(Unknown Source) at java.awt.Container.dispatchEventImpl(Unknown Source) at java.awt.Window.dispatchEventImpl(Unknown Source) at java.awt.Component.dispatchEvent(Unknown Source) at java.awt.EventQueue.dispatchEvent(Unknown Source) at java.awt.EventDispatchThread.pumpOneEventForHierar chy(Unknown Source) at java.awt.EventDispatchThread.pumpEventsForHierarch y(Unknown Source) at java.awt.EventDispatchThread.pumpEvents(Unknown Source) at java.awt.EventDispatchThread.run(Unknown Source) Exception occurred during event dispatching: java.lang.NullPointerException at com.barbre.fiddle.widgets.Gauge.paint(Gauge.java:4 4) at javax.swing.JComponent.paintChildren(Unknown Source) at javax.swing.JComponent.paint(Unknown Source) at javax.swing.JComponent.paintChildren(Unknown Source) at javax.swing.JComponent.paint(Unknown Source) at javax.swing.JLayeredPane.paint(Unknown Source) at javax.swing.JComponent.paintChildren(Unknown Source) at javax.swing.JComponent.paint(Unknown Source) at javax.swing.JComponent.paintChildren(Unknown Source) at javax.swing.JComponent.paint(Unknown Source) at com.barbre.fiddle.widgets.InternalFrame.paint(Inte rnalFrame.java:77) at javax.swing.JComponent.paintChildren(Unknown Source) at javax.swing.JComponent.paint(Unknown Source) at javax.swing.JLayeredPane.paint(Unknown Source) at javax.swing.JComponent.paintChildren(Unknown Source) at javax.swing.JComponent.paint(Unknown Source) at javax.swing.JViewport.paint(Unknown Source) at javax.swing.JComponent.paintChildren(Unknown Source) at javax.swing.JComponent.paint(Unknown Source) at javax.swing.JComponent.paintChildren(Unknown Source) at javax.swing.JSplitPane.paintChildren(Unknown Source) at javax.swing.JComponent.paint(Unknown Source) at javax.swing.JComponent.paintChildren(Unknown Source) at javax.swing.JComponent.paint(Unknown Source) at javax.swing.JComponent.paintWithBuffer(Unknown Source) at javax.swing.JComponent._paintImmediately(Unknown Source) at javax.swing.JComponent.paintImmediately(Unknown Source) at javax.swing.RepaintManager.paintDirtyRegions(Unkno wn Source) at javax.swing.SystemEventQueueUtilities$ComponentWor kRequest.run(Unknown Source) at java.awt.event.InvocationEvent.dispatch(Unknown Source) at java.awt.EventQueue.dispatchEvent(Unknown Source) at java.awt.EventDispatchThread.pumpOneEventForHierar chy(Unknown Source) at java.awt.EventDispatchThread.pumpEventsForHierarch y(Unknown Source) at java.awt.EventDispatchThread.pumpEvents(Unknown Source) at java.awt.EventDispatchThread.run(Unknown Source)
