AWT on OSX

[Andres Colubri]

Hello there, 

I know PyJNIus has issues with AWT on OSX, see for instance https://github.com/kivy/pyjnius/issues/85, where a suggested workaround is to use -Djava.awt.headless=true.

However, if the goal is actually to be able to create an AWT Frame from Python, is there any way forward? The following code hangs when jnius simply tries to load the Frame class (runnning OSX 10.9.5, JDK 1.8.0_31):

from jnius import autoclass

print "hello jnius"

Frame = autoclass("java.awt.Frame")

print "bye jnius"

Any comments will be appreciated!
