Java mapscript fails to compile

[unicoletti]

I have checked out mapserver from cvs and I was not able to compile Java mapscript.

These are the configure options:

/configure --with-threads --with-pdf --with-proj --without-tiff --without-wms
--with-gdal=/opt/gdal/bin/gdal-config

And this is the error I get:
unicoletti@friedrich java $ make interface all
mkdir -p edu/umn/gis/mapscript
swig -java -package edu.umn.gis.mapscript -o mapscript_wrap.c ../mapscript.i
mv *.java edu/umn/gis/mapscript/

It looks the problem lies in the following lines of code (from mapscript.i):
%init %{
        if (msSetup() != MS_SUCCESS)
    {
        msSetError(MS_MISCERR, "Failed to set up threads and font cache",
                   "msSetup()");
    }
%}

They refer to bug 1203.

[jerry.pisk@…]

I do have a fix, I was waiting on seang to decide whether he wants to use it 
or pursue single initialization code for all languages. The problem is that 
swig's %init section will not work with Java.

[sgillies@…]

OK, I moved that %init block within the next #ifdef SWIGPYTHON so that it is
Python only.  Committed to CVS HEAD.

It now compiles fine and I can use it from my java webapp.

Also an issue present in recent cvs checkouts related to gdImageSetThickness
that crashed java mapscript is solved.

Marking as fixed for now...
