Hello PyMOL users, We have problems with starting pymol from another application and are unable to find the reason.
A short listing demonstrating the problem is here http://www.rz.charite.de/bioinf/strap/PymolBug.java The problem occurs only on some computers. On the computers where it occurs it is completely reproduce-able. On most computers pymol is correctly started and the protein given as argv[0] is loaded. However on one LINUX PC a problem occurs if and only if java version 1.4.2 is used. The same java version worked, however, on another LINUX PC with very similar configuration which has a faster CPU. The problem occurred also on an MaciBook, java1.4.1_01 The problem presents as follows: Pymol is started and feels fine until after 10s the load-command is send by the java program via standard input to pymol Immediately after receiving the data pymol is frozen and revives after terminating the process-object in java with destroy. Has anyone seen something similar? Greeting, Kristian Rother
