[EAP 606] Help in firefox

[pepijnve]

The JDIC project has a class Destop that contains a browse method. This opens a URL in the system default browser. I gave it a try with the following code:

Code: Select all

File file = new File("D:/java/YourKit Java Profiler 4.5 EAP build 606/docs/help/index.html");
URL url = file.toURI().toURL();
Desktop.browse(url);

And this works perfectly on my machine. Might be useful since this code is LGPL licensed.

Thank you very much for pointing to solution. We'll try to integrate it into profiler.

Hi,

I have found in some forum the following note: "Launching the browser by the url.dll does not work if Active Desktop is installed on Windows NT"

Just curious, is this the case? Do you have Active Desktop on your NT?

Best regards,
Anton

Not that I can tell. I'm not the admin of this machine, so I don't know for sure. I can't put jpgs on my desktop so I'm guessing it's not installed
