Re: Fixing support for Java and YAAC on Microsoft Windows


 

Andrew,

Same problem for me - immediately closes when I try to enable the serial TNC
port. Please see attached Java error log.

I appear to have a bunch of Visual C++ Redistributables installed, including
x86 and x64 versions of 2010 - 10.0.40219.

Other versions include:
2012 - 11.0.61030.0
2013 - 12.0.40660
2015-2019 - 14.25.28508.3

I'm happy to help debug/test in any way I can.

R/ Paul KF4UIA

Mine does not work. It opens then immediately closes back down.

Ah, it appears you do have a newer (service pack) version of the same VC++
runtime library already installed. So you shouldn't have to do anything.

Is YAAC working? Or did I pick the wrong date of the VC++RTL?

The whole point is that you need the older version of the VC++ runtime
library (unless you're dealing with a Service Pack fix of the specific
version that the JSSC library was compiled with). Are you able to open
serial ports on your system? Then you don't need the fix. If you can't open
serial ports and/or trying to do so crashes YAAC, then you need the correct
version of the Visual C++ runtime library (and not a newer incompatible
version like the one from VC++ 2017 that is now bundled in the new builds of
the Java runtime).



Can you send me a screenshot of your error message? I'm not sure whether
it's griping that you should upgrade all your apps to use VC++2017 as
opposed to saying you already have a service-packed version of VC++ 2010
RTL.

Both of my systems say I have a newer version installed already. What's the

protocol for this?

Greetings, all.



For those who haven't been able to get YAAC working on Microsoft Windows

since accepting a Java 8 upgrade past build 281, I think I have a fix. But I

can't build the fix into YAAC because it requires installing a licensed

Microsoft product.



So, you need to download and install the Microsoft Visual C++ 2010 SP1

Redistributable Package (either x86 or x64, depending on the version of the

Java runtime you are using); note it won't hurt (other than using extra disk

space) to install both versions on x64 version of Windows. I hope I have the

correct year of the Redistributable. This can be downloaded from the

Microsoft website at



(x86 version)



(x64 version)



Let me know if this still doesn't fix your problem.
