在MAC OS下解决GLFW问题

Question

i have to run a java lwjgl game on a Mac but there are problems with GLFW.

> Exception in thread "main" java.lang.ExceptionInInitializerError

Caused by: java.lang.IllegalStateException: Please run the JVM with -XstartOnFirstThread. at org.lwjgl.system.macosx.EventLoop.(EventLoop.java:17) ... 6 more

this is my error code

the implementation for the windows class:

Maybe you can help me

Answer 1

From the error you posted above it seems like you just need to add -XstartOnFirstThread to the command you are using to run the program. So it should be something like this.

java -XstartOnFirstThread -jar executable.jar

If you are using an ide you will have to edit the run configuration to include this argument.

This error is occurring because your frame management must be done in the main thread of your application. Also, be careful because a lot of the GLFW commands can only be called from the main thread. You can tell which ones this applies to in the documentation for each command (in the notes section). example

Answer 2

You just need to configure the Run Configuration in Eclipse, like this:

first choose the run configuration

paste the -XstartOnFirstThread to the run argument

then click run, you won't see this exception any more.
