Getting Smartdashboard 2.0 working

Seeing as how my last thread hasn't garnered any responses in a few days I'll try again with a more generic question. Has anyone gotten the JavaFX Smartdashboard 2.0 working?
I've tried it on Linux and Windows and have have used both OpenJDK and Oracle Java on both platform and every time I seem to be getting some jrubyfx errors. Any help would be appreciated since my team would like to use the Smartdashboard this year.

Re: Getting Smartdashboard 2.0 working

Sorry, didn't have access to Chief Delphi until right now. Please see my response to your post here: http://www.chiefdelphi.com/forums/sh...99#post1327299

I was able to open the sfx.jar file and run it through both Windows Explorer and the Command Prompt (Windows 7 - I haven't tried, nor do I intend to try, any other operating systems).

However, I haven't been able to get it to open with Driver Station (see my post here http://www.chiefdelphi.com/forums/sh...3#post1327293).

Re: Getting Smartdashboard 2.0 working

Because you got that error and not "command not found" or something similar, I take it you did put it in a separate folder, but I'm just confirming that it does exist there?

When you try to run it, does it create two other .jars, one being sfxlib.jar?

Can you open it when you double click on it?

When you put the file/folder into the C:\\ drive, did you also copy the plugins folder that was originally with it?

Yes it does exist there.

Nothing. That's the reason I started opening it cmd.

Yes, I copied the plugin folder. It came empty though.

Sorry for taking so long to respond.

Re: Getting Smartdashboard 2.0 working

What version(s) of Java do you have on your computer? For me I got it working once I uninstalled all versions of Java 6 and updated to the newest one (7 update 51).

Re: Getting Smartdashboard 2.0 working

Where do you even download SmartDashboard 2.0? I can't seem to find a download link for it, and all of the links on the FIRSTForge site are from last year.

You don't need to download it separately; it comes in the sunspotfrcsdk folder that is automatically installed with the Netbeans plugins.

The directory is C:\Users\[Your_Username]\sunspotfrcsdk\tools.

It will be called sfx.zip. Extract it into another folder. I just did mine into a folder called sfx in the tools directory.

See this page for more details. http://wpilib.screenstepslive.com/s/...ch-with-the-ds

Yup. It's in the WPILib folder of the workbench update. Silly lack of documentation. >_>

Sorry, I thought this was in the Java sub-forum because I was posting about SFX in another thread earlier today. It is still on the site!

"If you have the C++ update installed this is likely C:\Windriver\WPILib\SFX" Under "Locate SFX". Their pictures just show the Java path, but it works the same way.

I got rid of the older versions. It shouldn't matter anyways since that's the version that's in the system PATH.

It shouldn't, but that doesn't mean it doesn't. What if you try reinstalling it altogether (are you using C++ or Java?)? Or try deleting the other files it makes?

Re: Getting Smartdashboard 2.0 working

Hmm, that is interesting and confusing. Would you mind pasting the sha1sum of sfx.jar, sfxlib.jar and sfxmeta.jar?
Whoa, just testing right now with 7u51 I get a strange error that we only saw on Java 8 but its different to what you have... Would you mind trying with 7u45 if you can?

could you re-download sfx.zip from here and try again: http://frcbuilder.wpi.edu:8190/job/S...tifact/sfx.zip

Re: Getting Smartdashboard 2.0 working

Hi, I am getting the same message, and I don't see the sfxlib.jar file in the sfx.zip file downloaded from the above link.

Re: Getting Smartdashboard 2.0 working

sfxlib and sfxmeta will appear once you run sfx. either way, you can still check the sha1sum of sfx individually

Re: Getting Smartdashboard 2.0 working

I found something interesting on Windows 7 64bit. It won't work from the standard user/sunspotfrcsdk directory structure if your name has a space in it. I tried moving the sfx.jar and plugins directory to c:\apps\sfx and it worked fine
