Bug #3821
openCannot launch parser within Morpho when using Java 1.6
0%
Description
We're finding this happens with Java 1.6 on both Window XP and Windows Vista.
The JPedal classes are not being found by the classloader from within the AWT-EventQueue thread (weird!).

You can run Morpho from the commandline (morpho.bat) and everything works fine.
It seems that this problem comes up when running Morpho from within Eclipse.
I've tried a number of Eclipse configuration changes to no avail.
The good thing is that we won't necessarily have to worry about it for the shipped product.

When I tried to run morpho.bat (command line), morpho launches briefly and then terminates with the following errors:

you'll need to update, then run the ant "install" target under development/morpho directoy

JRE5 (jdk-1.5.0_17) works like charm! Morpho and parser interfaces work fine now on XP.

This is annoying, but seems to only be a problem from within eclipse.
It appears that using the izpack installer version of the application also plays nice with 1.6 and jpedal.
