Hi,
Hasn't development of the Sun Access Bridge been suspended? I was
under the impression that Sun no longer maintains it. If I'm wrong,
someone please let me know. I thought that the Gnome community had or
decided to reingent the wheel, so to speak.
Hi,
Orca is still dependent on the Java Access Bridge for Gnome. It works
well as a bridge to Java applications, and I'm not aware of any efforts
to replace it.
The main limitation of the bridge is that a copy of the bridge needs to
be installed on each JDK on the system. So, each time a new JDK is
installed, the steps described at
http://live.gnome.org/Orca/JABG#details need to done. The installation
itself is not painful, but
knowing and remembering you have to do it is a problem.

Thats not an orca problem!!
Check your javac installation by typing:
javac -version
on a linux console.
You need the java sdk from sun to get the accesbridge to work.
Sorry, I should have put that in the message. I am using Sun's JDK
1.5.0_11.
I sent the message to this list because I thought it was the most
likely
place where I would find persons knowledgeable about integrating
Access-Bridge into the Gnome desktop. Again, if there is another list
that
is more appropriate, please let me know.
Thanks,
dave

Hi,
If this is not the correct venue for this question, please let me know
where I should take this problem.
I am running Ubuntu Edgy. I'm afraid that I can't give you a version
number for Gnome, since Orca will not read anything in the about Gnome
window. However, it should be the most recent update available through
apt-get. I am new to gnome, so if there is an easy way to get the
version info, please let me know.
I downloaded Java Access-Bridge, version 1.5.0. I installed packages
until configure returned no errors. (One issue, however... the only
gnome-2.0 directory in the tree is /usr/share/gnome-2.0, so I did not
pass a prefix into configure. If this indicates that there is a package
that I need to install, please let me know.)
When I make install, I get the following output with Java errors:
make[1]: Leaving directory
