Look and Feel not working.

Hello everyone!!!

I am actually developing a desktop application and for that purpose i am using Synthetica Look and Feel. Well, it's much better for me to state here exactly the theme of Synthetica i am using. I am using Synthetica Black Eye look and feel.

The problem is when i run my application it actually doesn't apply the look and feel and executes the catch part of try-catch. I am getting sick of this exception. Finally i planned to ask you guys for help.

The code i am writing in the constuctor part is;

Code :

---

public TestGUI() {
     try
    {
      UIManager.setLookAndFeel(new SyntheticaBlackEyeLookAndFeel());
    } 
    catch (Exception e)
    {
      e.printStackTrace();
    }
        loadComponents(); // Initiates all the swing components.
    }

---

And when i run, it gives exception;

Thanks for reading the thread. I am hoping some help from you guys.

Hi,
The error is because of the not getting the appropriate jar in library/classpath.

Core java

I have downloaded the synthetica.jar and synthetica blackeye.jar from JYLOO software (Jyloo Software)

Did you properly configure your program to find the appropriate jar files? Simply having the jar files != configuring your program to find/use them.

Yes, i properly configured synthetica and synthetica black eye jar files. And now i have got one other clue and that is, synthetica blackeye is not allowed to use with non commercial applications. So, i want to ask, if it's a problem for my application?

I want you all to look over here too. May be i misunderstood something.

Are you directing me to this figure?

try

UIManager.setLookAndFeel("de.javasoft.plaf.synthet ica.SyntheticaStandardLookAndFeel");
//Another way is to use the #setLookAndFeel method of the SyntheticaLookAndFeel class
//SyntheticaLookAndFeel.setLookAndFeel(String className, boolean antiAlias, boolean useScreenMenuOnMac);
}
catch (Exception e)
{
e.printStackTrace();
}

If yes, it will not actually change anything and yes, i have changed it like this but same problem. As it's only the path to the .jar, while i have been imported in my code above.

What IDE do you use?

Netbeans 6.9.1

Well, everyone thanks. Problem has been solved. I will discuss here in a while about the whole process.

Thanks

Read My Blog for one of the possible solutions.

Please don't resurrect a year old post. Create a new thread, and I'd recommend reading the link in my signature entitled 'Getting Help' prior to doing so.
