i know this issue has been brought up before, but the proposed 

i have sent a patch to my co-worker (not very familiar with max) 

containing a mxj class, in fact only mxj net.tcp.recv.

upon opening the patch he gets the following error:

/Library/ApplicationSupport/Cycling '74/java/classes/

he is using osx 10.4.x, maxmsp 4.5.5, and J2SE 5.0

so i suspect that the problem is the java version.

but simply putting "max.java.jvm.version 1.5" (as proposed on the 

list before) in the max.java.config file didn't change anything.

what have others done to convice max to use java 5? or is there 

hi
i know this issue has been brought up before, but the proposed  
answers don't seem to help in this case.

i have sent a patch to my co-worker (not very familiar with max)  
containing a mxj class, in fact only mxj net.tcp.recv.
upon opening the patch he gets the following error:
...
MXJClassloader CLASSPATH:
   /Library/ApplicationSupport/Cycling '74/java/classes/
error: could not load bundle
error: unable to create JVM

so i suspect that the problem is the java version.
but simply putting "max.java.jvm.version 1.5" (as proposed on the  
list before) in the max.java.config file didn't change anything.

what have others done to convice max to use java 5? or is there  
another problem involved?
thanks for any hints.

Can you verify that this folder is on his computer?

/System/Library/Frameworks/JavaVM.framework

What happens if he opens a terminal any types java -version

problem is, i have no access to his computer right now.

i'll report back, as soon as i get hold of his machine...

thanks nick, no, this is not the error i'm struggling with.

max is not even getting so far as to load the class since i gets 

the class i was using is form the standard max-distribution anyway

i have a vague memory that max, under 'certain conditions', has

stuck before creating JVM.

i have a vague memory that max, under 'certain conditions', has  
problems loading any java-files
if the java-version installed is 1.5.
might be wrong though...

what you are seeing is that max is unable to find the java framework 

if it cant find the framework it cant even instantiate the vm.

what you are seeing is that max is unable to find the java framework  
for some reason.

aha, terminal shows version 1.4.2
but that should be fine anyway.

what else can we do? the same error as below appears, as soon as he  
tries to load a java class via mxj.
thanks.

Is it possible to send me or anyone else the patch to see if the 

Could be a permissions problem as well. Maybe try installing the 1.5 

and adding that line back into max.jvm.config.txt. Obviously it is 

tell you exactly what to do since I am just guessing.That error is 

to load the JVM framework bundle in C land.

OK. Well there is something a little bit screwy with the java install 

Putting 1.5 in max.java.config.txt will not change the default java 

line. To do that you need to put something like

alias javac '/System/Library/Frameworks/JavaVM.framework/Versions/1.5/ 

alias java '/System/Library/Frameworks/JavaVM.framework/Versions/1.5/ 

In your .tcshrc file for tcsh.I am not sure if it is the same for bash.

This will not fix the problem by the way. The problem is that the C 

JavaVM framework. I would look in that framework and see if something 

permissions or the soft links pointing to the current framework.

Putting 1.5 in max.java.config.txt will not change the default java  
and javac from the command
line. To do that you need to put something like

#java 1.5 stuff
alias javac '/System/Library/Frameworks/JavaVM.framework/Versions/1.5/ 
Commands/javac'
alias java '/System/Library/Frameworks/JavaVM.framework/Versions/1.5/ 
Commands/java'

This will not fix the problem by the way. The problem is that the C  
code is barfing on loading the
JavaVM framework. I would look in that framework and see if something  
looks fishy in terms of
permissions or the soft links pointing to the current framework.

Sorry I can't be of more help remotely.

I prefer modifying paths rather than messing around with aliases...
