Speaking of JVM 'plugins' that are loaded reflectively, don't forget the Java Access Bridge on Windows, as I reported to Hydraulic some months ago. (Fortunately, that one is fixed in Conveyor.)
- mike_hearn 4y agoOh yes good point. Thanks for reporting that. The module name is "jdk.accessibility" for anyone jlinking an app that depends on "java.desktop".
- mwcampbell 4y agoBTW, the reason why the Java Access Bridge is a separate thing on Windows, as opposed to AWT just directly implementing the platform accessibility API, is an interesting bit of history. Basically, in the late 90s, Microsoft's accessibility API was way too simplistic. Maybe I can talk about that in some detail if you ever get your podcast going and we talk about accessibility there.
