Java Haiku native app

Hello

when haiku has become enough to handle java applications (new jre added during 2018-2019). is it possible to publish own applications to a repository, even if they are completely Java-based and join the haiku development at this direction?

Of course I believe there are already 3rd party repos with Java applications being hosted…

Yes, there’s at least Ancestris I know, which for now is repackaged from the official binary, but it’d be nice to have an official HaikuPorts recipe for it so we can keep it up to date easily.

Read this too late …
… but there was already great Java software (at least 150 and including Ancestris):

… and Ancestris11 (nightly version) works from the original package for Linux (but also MacOS) with a double click!
Thanks to Korli for reworking OpenJDK (V8 + now V11 are optimal for Ancestris)!
There remains (among other things) this old (known) error:

Hello. Haiku - R1/Beta1 JVM - openjdk 12.0.1+12 Code: ```java import …javax.swing.*; import java.awt.event.WindowAdapter; import java.awt.event.WindowEvent; public class WindowTest { public static void main(String[] args) { SwingUtilities.invokeLater(WindowTest::show); } private static void show() { JFrame f = new JFrame(); f.setDefaultCloseOperation(WindowConstants.DISPOSE_ON_CLOSE); f.setSize(500, 500); f.setTitle("Test"); f.addWindowListener(new WindowAdapter() { @Override public void windowOpened(WindowEvent e) { System.out.println(f.getLocation()); System.out.println(f.getLocationOnScreen()); System.out.println(f.getGraphicsConfiguration().getDevice().getIDstring()); } }); JMenuBar bar = new JMenuBar(); JMenu c = new JMenu(); c.add(new JMenuItem("Open")); c.setText("File"); c.setMnemonic('F'); bar.add(c); f.setJMenuBar(bar); JPanel panel = new JPanel(); panel.add(new JLabel("Test Some Label")); panel.add(new JLabel("<html><body><b>Test Some Label</b></body></html>")); f.setContentPane(panel); f.setVisible(true); } } ``` Sometimes - jvm show dialog outside visible area. Few screenshots: *Title bar is outside visible area* ![](https://klikr.org/0a78128cbad21b552448cd4e21da.png) *Almost full window outside visible area* ![](https://klikr.org/40e5e7ace8b61aa832415c75f0c4.png) *In most cases it return valid x=0, y=0* ![](https://klikr.org/9c9f047982a284c254ca5772d9d6.png) Thanks
