Can't configure UCI engine #796

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago 
Hi, thank you for your help.
I'm using Raptor_v98u3f5_OS_X_Cocoa_x86_64, Java for OS X 2014-001 ( 
http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1572 ) and Java 8 update 25 on a 10.10.1 Mac.
When I try to configure any engine, the file explorer from the "Select 
Location" button just hangs and doesn't show any files. I tried to add the 
location manually but an alert pops up asking to click the connect button 
before applying the changes. I've attached a screenshot.

Hello,

Thank you for your report. Did you try to use the latest version in the source 
repository?

There have been changes related to UCI engines but due to a change in policy by 
google, it is no longer possible to upload new builds or jars, so for the time 
being all changes are available only in the source repository. Could you try 
with the latest version and see if the problem is still present?

The wiki contains a page describing how to obtain the latest sources and run 
those.

Regards.

Hi, thank you very much for your answer.

I installed the newest version and the problem persists.

I'll continue to use raptor anyways because is the best OS X client (;

Best regards.

Hi, I found a way to force the file manager to show the files:
When configuring the UCI engine, affter clicking "Select Location" the finder 
will freeze. But if you click a folder (eg. Downloads) and click the "Show as 
list" button (it was set to "Show as columns") it will show the available files.
However, once you select the file, raptor will crash before you could save the 
changes.

***Raptor quit unexpectedly while using the libswt-pi-cocoa-3738.jnilib 
plug-in.***

Hope this helps.

Best regards.

Hm, I don't like that error message: suggests an incompatibility between native 
SWT libraries and the Java code...

I won't have time to look into the problem for at least another week, and even 
then I will not be able to test on mac osx 10.10 (my latest version is still 
mavericks)

Any chance that you can update your SWT libraries? From your original posting, 
I assume that you used the mac installer, which comes with a version of SWT. 
But that version may no longer be compatible with the most recent mac osx.

Could you let me know if that solves the problem?

Thanks.

Hi, your solution worked very well.

Download latest SWT from here: 
http://www.eclipse.org/downloads/download.php?file=/eclipse/downloads/drops4/R-4
.4-201406061215/swt-4.4-cocoa-macosx-x86_64.zip
Extract and put all files in the Raptor.app/Contents/MacOS/swt/ folder 
replacing the old swt.jar file.

I've successfully configured an UCI engine. Thanks a lot!
