Getting JPen code to work

[Jason]

I'm running into a bit of problem getting the backend JPen code to
work. When running the demo applet, I'm getting an unexpected
exception. When the program tries to load the X11TabletManager, JPen
throws a MissingResourceException. Looking at the code where its
thrown, I find that XInputProvider.java is trying to create a
NativeLibraryLoader using build properties. The WintabProvider uses
almost identical code, but you've obviously got it working.

The exception is below. Note that the line numbers might not perfectly
match your files since I've made some slight tweaks to a few of them.

I haven't dealt with resources at all, so I don't know where to begin
to look. Is this a problem with the ANT script? Any thoughts?

Hey Jason,

I removed the unnecessary "Xinput.loadLibrary()" to avoid the problem (
http://jpen.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/jpen?view=rev&revision=243 ). Also let
me know if you want write access to the jpen svn repo.

Cheers!

Awesome, that appears to have fixed it! The library loads right up and
detects my tablet. Unfortunately it appears to be convinced that my
tablet is in relative mode, despite xidump telling me its in absolute.
Time to look through the C code...
