Java SE (Java Platform, Standard Edition)

Hi everyone,

I have a serious problem and would be really thankful if someone can give a hint:

In the application we're currently developing, we already created our virtual universe, with its scene graph, canvas3d and all that stuff, and it's all working perfectly.

However, while trying to create a new universe (for a specific part of the application), aside from the main universe (they should co-exist though), the application closes everytime it reaches this line:

Canvas3D canvas3D = new Canvas3D(config);

Now the config is our graphics configuration, but it's not what is causing the problem because the application crashes even if i create the canvas3d with a null graphics configuration or the SimpleUniverse's.

Now the weird thing is that on one machine, the error looks like this:

An unexpected exception has been detected in native code outside the VM.
Unexpected Signal : EXCEPTION_ACCESS_VIOLATION (0xc0000005) occurred at PC=0x3B5785E
Function=[Unknown.]
Library=C:\WINDOWS\System32\ialmgicd.dll

NOTE: We are unable to locate the function name symbol for the error
just occurred. Please refer to release documentation for possible
reason and solutions.


Current Java thread:
at javax.media.j3d.Canvas3D.setProjectionMatrix(Native Method)
at javax.media.j3d.Renderer.doWork(Renderer.java:1238)
at javax.media.j3d.J3dThread.run(J3dThread.java:250)


// with some memory dump

# The exception above was detected in native code outside the VM
#
# Java VM: Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (1.4.2_03-b02 mixed mode)


And on another machine, the application just freezes completely.

So if anybody encountered some similar problems or has any idea what's going on, i would really appreciate the help.

Thank you

Robert
