Hi!

Please modify your “howto” as Mickael suggested, it is not very difficult. Some people might have problems when using JOGL applications and applets because of it. Best regards.

Its a problem with ur double quotes “”. Check it properly. Just correct it. I think you have copy and pasted the code from this post thats why instead of double quotes its different sign.
Thanks.

Yeah michael bien is very correct. The above howto that i wrote is not very recommended. I am not a regular Ubuntu user and i was having problem setting classpath on ubuntu linux so i hacked it around and get my jogl app working using above steps.

Gracias.

1. it is a very bad idea to deploy jogl in your jre, this will break a lot of apps. (esp. webstart and applets)
2. don’t load jogl natives explicitly it is already done by jogl.

-cp and -Djava.library.path is all you need to start a app with jar and native dependencies (in general) via cmd line. If you want to use applets or webstart just take a look at the jnlp extensions provided by jogl.

In other words: don’t follow this howto
