FAQ for CDPhotoIndex
CDPhotoIndex is really a simple utility done with Java which should enable you to work on any system for which there is a JVM. The JVM version must be 1.4.X or above.
CDPhotoIndex loads the images one by one in memory keeping only the thumbnails. Still it might need more memory than available in standard JVM configuration.
One java drawback with JVM is that the maximum size of memory useable by the application is set on JVM start. CDPhotoIndex may encounter problems due to the fact that it cannot allocate enough memory to achieve its operation.
Should you encounter a problem, try to relaunch it with more memory available to the JVM.
For example to use 256Mo of memory, use this flag :
<JRE_HOME>\bin\java -Xmx256m CDPhotoIndex.jar
How to print when you have the message "No print service found" ?
- If your JVM version is 1.4, you should upgrade to 1.4.2_07 ! Ok, not cool, but print service is bugged on previous versions.
- If you already have version 1.5 of the JVM, you might bump into this
bog which prevents the JVM from discovering the available print services
.
Hopefully, this flag might solve the problem :
java -Djava.net.preferIPv4Stack=true ... - On Debian, be sure to have cupsys-bsd package installed as it seems necessary for java to print (or is it only for remote printing ?).
