[kepler-dev] What is this?

[Christopher Brooks]

Ilkay,
Jython takes a few moments to handle the jar files,

I suspect that something else would be causing your vergil
process to hang.

In the window where you start up, try typing Control-Break to get a
stack trace.  We've tried hard to make sure that error messages get
reported to either a stack trace window or worst case, stderr, but
we've probably missed a few


BTW - I'm not at all happy with how Jython (the Java implementation of
Python) does this.  I think that using Jython in an applet or unsigned
WebStart application would be difficult.   Jacl does not have this
problem.

    Does it take some time to load because of that or require something
    else to instantiate? Looks like my build prints
       " [echo] java.library.path=c:/WINDOWS/system32
         [java] *sys-package-mgr*: processing modified jar,
    'C:\project\kepler\build\kepler-configs.jar' "
    
    and it stops there without opening the vergil interface? This happens only
    in
    one of my windows machines.
    
    Thanks,
