Splash screen [message #1701364]

Hi

I know that there are problems according on this topic, but I could not hold myself:

Is there any progress on that field? Really bad not have splash screen Sad

I added splash.bmp to my application bundle and removed -nosplash. Splash appeared for 2 second and then throw error (Ubuntu 14.10 JDK1.8 Unity):

(java:8714): GLib-GObject-WARNING **: cannot register existing type 'GdkDisplayManager'

Is that means that splash screen works but there is some bug in linux or what?

Unfortunately no - Oracle seems to think a java application does not
need a splashscreen and I don't see them adding one to java-packager.

On windows you can make use of the eclipse splash-screen (maybe also on
gtk). In 2.0 (and 1.3 for customers with support contracts) we added a
special service giving you very early access to the framework launch so
that you can display a custom splash as early as possible (before the e4
lifecycle!).

I fully understand that this is not satisfying but we don't have the
resources to implement a custom launcher. So unless someone is paying us
to implement it or contribute it we are stuck. A first progress would be
if somebody could research
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=427258 how this could be
fixed.

Hi,
I am exploring equinox hook with e(fx)xlipse for splash only.
I am working on Win environment. And i don't have any plan to move to Mac or Linux.

1) Is there any example on the equinox hook for Splash on pure e(fx)clipse?

2) One more thing i would like to know is how to configure target definition to work on SWT and e(fx)clipse both at time?

3) Can i use this(Attachment 227432) example by Lars to Hook the Splash Service? Again I am blocked cause of 2nd point that my target definition is not allowing org.eclipse.core , SWT and jface etc. and How can i hook it in Osgi?

For the second point this might be helpful: https://blog.codecentric.de/en/2015/04/add-javafx-controls-swt-eclipse-4-application-eclipse-rcp-cookbook/

But as it seems you want to "enrich" your JavaFX UI with a SWT SplashScreen, you should rethink what you are trying to achieve. IIRC you can add JavaFX content to a SWT UI via the FXCanvas control. I am not aware of something similar in JavaFX to get SWT controls in.

The linked solution is an OSGi declarative service. I assume you would need to implement something similar using JavaFX instead of SWT.

My Intention is to have pure e(fx)clipse application only. For my application splash screen is mandatory, that's why i am planning to hook SWT splash.

That doesn't make much sense. I would suggest to migrate the approach you found to JavaFX instead of bringing SWT into a JavaFX application.

Thanks Dirk for reply. What exactly i am looking for is as below (in quote).

Thomas Schindl wrote on Oct 13 at 12:23 at Stackoverflow

if you are on windows/linux you can still use the equinox hook with the only caveat that we bring this one done very early because we can not bring it down on the JavaFX thread

But that is not the swt splash screen! All you need is the native
launcher artifact. The nightly build already has it in it.

Hi Tom,

I downloaded nightly build from downloads.efxclipse.bestsolution.at/downloads/nightly/sdk/ and facing some issues in setup.
My default target definition is showing
index.php/fa/23780/0/

I am getting access restriction error for JAVA fx as
index.php/fa/23781/0/

And in new project am not able to see the JAVAFx Projects.
My OSGI console output is as below

WARNING: This console is connected to the current running instance of Eclipse!

It looks like the org.eclipse.fx bundles could not be started - try:

diag 260

or some of the other bundles who only got into the INSTALLED state to
see what's going on.

.... and BTW I did not talk about updateing the IDE but only the target

Ohh Sorry. My bad.
I changed my target definition in my previous setup to : http://download.eclipse.org/efxclipse/runtime-nightly/site
But it was not working as in my launch file org.eclipse.jdt.launching.PROGRAM_ARGUMENTS there was -nosplash.
I removed that and it worked perfectly as expected.
Hope we can have progress bar soon. Smile

Thanks,
Milan

Hi Tom,

My Splash is visible behind the application.
Is there any solution for this?

In 2.0 (and 1.3 for customers with support contracts) we added a
special service giving you very early access to the framework launch so
that you can display a custom splash as early as possible (before the e4
lifecycle!).

Hi Tom,

can u explain how display a custom splash before the e4 lifecycle? I can't find the service...

Thx,

Hi,

Look for StartupProgressTrackerService#stateReached which is the
earliest stage when FX has been initialized.

Hi Bastien / Tom,

I am very curious to use splash. I am trying to use the service StartupProgressTrackerService. But my debug point is not hitting to any of the Sysouts in below code. Here is what i am doing. please correct me. I am really new to osgi service and its usage.

1) create new-->Plugindevelopment--> Component Defintion. Splash.xml

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<scr:component xmlns:scr="http://www.osgi.org/xmlns/scr/v1.1.0" configuration-policy="require" immediate="true" name="media.app">
   <implementation class="media.app.splash.Splash"/>
   <reference cardinality="1..1" interface="org.eclipse.fx.ui.services.startup.StartupProgressTrackerService" name="StartupProgressTrackerService" policy="static"/>
</scr:component>

2)Created class Splash as below

import org.eclipse.equinox.app.IApplicationContext;
import org.eclipse.fx.ui.services.startup.StartupProgressTrackerService;

public class Splash implements StartupProgressTrackerService {

	public Splash() {
	}

	@Override
	public OSGiRV osgiApplicationLaunched(IApplicationContext applicationContext) {
		System.out.println();
		
		return null;
	}

	@Override
	public void stateReached(ProgressState state) {
		
		System.out.println();
	}

}

And in logs i am getting four times

!ENTRY media.app 4 0 2016-02-11 16:21:49.345
!MESSAGE [SCR] Component definition XMLs not found in bundle media.app. The component header value is splash.xml

You are defining a reference which is wrong! You are publishing
StartupProgressTrackerService so you need to use
StartupProgressTrackerService in the provided-service section.

   <implementation class="media.app.splash.Splash"/>
   <service>
      <provide interface="org.eclipse.fx.ui.services.startup.StartupProgressTrackerService"/>

So the system can not find the splash.xml is this really the location?
To me it looks like your MANIFEST.MF points to a wrong location.

Ohh there was an extra entry in manifest file. I removed it.
now its pointing to correct service.
Now its like this :

Service-Component: OSGI-INF/services/theme-default.xml,
OSGI-INF/services/splash.xml

Still its not hitting the debug point.
Logs says nothing Sad

Do i need to create any extra classes like E4LifeCyclemanager?

I have copied media application here. https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B2UtNBqzS9ksNTF4emZtcTJ0YUk/view?usp=sharing

https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=418399

I tried the solution proposed by Pawel Zalejko but it doesnt work for me.
Do u have a solution to make disapear the splash? The target is only Windows 7.

Thx

Hi,

You need to call the splash hide from the correct thread ;-)

Steps got easier because we now ship 2 applications:
* org.eclipse.fx.ui.workbench.fx.application => launches on an arbitary
thread
* org.eclipse.fx.ui.workbench.fx.main-thread-application => launches on
the main thread

So first step:
* open the .product and change from .application to .main-thread-
application
* Click synchronize in the testing section (this will modify your
.app/plugin.xml) - as an alternative you could have modified the
plugin.xml yourself
* You already have a StartupProgressTrackerService in the
osgiApplicationLaunched call IApplicationContext#applicationRunning
=> this is the last method called from the launching thread
afterwards you are in the JavaFX thread and the splash won't hide

The current draw backs:
* does not work on OS-X
* there's a short time without a splash (the time between the native
splash is hidden and the JavaFX bootsrapping is done and you show a
FX-Stage)

I've looked in this whole story and whenever I see someone from the
JavaFX-Packager Team I explain them that the current state of not having
a native splash is a none starter. We also looked in to writing our own
launcher because with the FX-Packager restart does not work either we've
not yet managed to find someone sponsoring such a development nor did we
implement such a none-opensource extension yet.
