Hello,
after installing 8.1.6 I copied the two demo files JDBCApplet.htm and
JDBCApplet.java to my home directory( linux ). I put a copy of
classes111.zip here to. Run javac JDBCApplet.java to get the
JDBCApllet.class file and started Netscape. After loading the
JDBCApplet.htm the screen fills itself with a nice text box, a button
with hello JDBC and some text. Then Netscape complains with a well known
error:
cannot convert string "-*....*-12-*...*-iso8859-1" to type StructFont
This has never happend before so it has todo with oracle sending some
text wich couldn't be converted. After clicking away this complaint and
pressing the button Hello JDBC the JDBCApplet goes on with printing out
the connection to the database and ending in a message:
IO Exception: SO Exception was generated.
I think the problem is that it cant print to the created text box
because of the convert string error.
The connection with the database has been checked with the script
Employee.java wich is provided as demo.
Is it a problem with the font type ? If so, what font type does oracle
generate to communicate with the outside world using applets..
Because the files used are given with the install of 8.1.6 and are
mentioned in A81354.pdf I didn't put them here. If it is necessary I
will post them.
Thanks in advance for your time,
Rob
