Hello

I've tried to use jna (inside jVLC -> java bindings for the vlc player) with a
jpanel:

public void setVideoOutput(JPanel jpanel) { long drawable = Native.getComponentID(jpanel); libvlc_exception_t exception = new libvlc_exception_t(); libvlc.libvlc_video_set_parent(instance, drawable, exception ); }

Then I get the following error: Exception in thread "AWT-EventQueue-0" java.lang.IllegalArgumentException:
Component must be heavyweight at com.sun.jna.Native.getComponentID(Native.java:156)

I had problems using the heavyweight canvas object inside my sun's wonderland
embeddedswing application, so I tried it with a lightweight jpanel instead of a
canvas object. Is it not possible to use JNA with a lightweight component such
as a jpanel?

Thanks for your help. Peter
