[02:41] <InHisName> Does this cover q on fixing java installs to be better ?
[15:24] <biehl> hello - is there a list of junior jobs somewhere ? Eg. a list of programs that are probably easy to package, but haven't been packaged yet.
[15:38] <persia> Well, there's *heaps* of stuff that hasn't been packaged.
[15:39] <persia> Generally, we try to get new stuff packaged in Debian, and sync it.
[15:39] <persia> I'll see if there's a wishlist collected somewhere.
[15:42] <persia> biehl, http://wiki.debian.org/Java/RequestedPackages has a list of requests, of which some are already claimed.  Feel free to ask here, or in #debian-java on OFTC if you need help.
[16:34] <biehl> nice, I'll have a look
[20:12] <|aspire|> hello
[20:13] <|aspire|> I have an import problem
[20:13] <|aspire|> my basic java libs are not available
[20:14] <|aspire|> sorry ignore that
[20:30] <|aspire|> hi is any one here at all???
[20:30] <persia> Lots of people.  Most tend to ide a lot.
[20:34] <|aspire|> ok
[20:34] <|aspire|> I'm looking for a way to use this function
[20:34] <|aspire|> createImage((int)screen_w, (int)screen_h)
[20:35] <|aspire|> any suggestion for which lib I may need?
[20:35] <|aspire|> /
[20:35] <|aspire|> or is this a function that is only applicable with an applet???
[20:44] <|aspire|> is there an alternative function that I can use instead of createImage such that I can use this code in a regular java app rather than with an applet
[23:10] <|aspire|> hello
[23:15] <Nicke_> |aspire|: while not very ubuntu related, take a look at the BufferedImage class for example
[23:16] <|aspire|> yes I have checked the java doc
[23:16] <Nicke_> (also, java.awt.Toolkit can come handy when used to the methods provided by Applet)
[23:16] <|aspire|> http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.4.2/docs/api/java/awt/Component.html#createImage(int, int)
[23:17] <|aspire|> that is right and I have tried that, however what I am looking for is a way to use this method or any alternative such that I can use this code in a regular java app
[23:17] <|aspire|> any suggestions Nicke_?
[23:18] <Nicke_> |aspire|: Either use the one provided by Component if you have such a object at hand.. otherwise create a new BufferedImage
[23:19] <Nicke_> not it was some time ago I did work with Swing, so I have no better answers
[23:19] <Nicke_> now it*
[23:20] <|aspire|> hold on, I have some fundamental knowledge of programming with java, but I need a bit more on this
[23:20] <|aspire|> can you explain your suggestion?
[23:21] <|aspire|> is it correct that you are suggesting me to use the java swing class rather than the awt?
[23:21] <|aspire|> Nicke_: ???
[23:22] <Nicke_> no, was just saying that it was some time ago I  used swing (and awt).
[23:23] <|aspire|> so you are not sure how I could solve this or are not sure how to explain it
[23:23] <Nicke_> well, I think BufferedImage will do what you want
[23:23] <Nicke_> but I can't provide any more detailed answer than that
[23:24] <|aspire|> ok, I could try that, in which class could I locate it?
[23:25] <Nicke_> BufferedImage is a class :) (java.awt.BufferedImage)
[23:26] <Nicke_> java.awt.image.BufferedImage even.. oops
[23:26] <Nicke_> I suppose Google might have some examples on how to use it
[23:27] <|aspire|> yes looking for it
[23:27] <|aspire|> but my IDE does not find the BufferedImage class
[23:27] <|aspire|> import java.awt.Image.BufferedImage;
[23:28] <Nicke_> change Image to image
[23:28] <|aspire|> import java.awt.Image.BufferedImage; being underlined with a red line
[23:29] <|aspire|> that is better
[23:29] <|aspire|> but still
[23:29] <|aspire|> java.awt.image.BufferedImage((int)screen_w, (int)screen_h);
[23:29] <|aspire|> can't find the class
[23:30] <|aspire|> complaining that it cant find the image class
[23:30] <|aspire|> how starge
[23:30] <|aspire|> strange
[23:40] <|aspire|> Nicke_: are you still there?
