jMonkeyEngine 3.1.0 Beta 3+4 Released (engine)

Not sure if this is the right place for this or not… feel free to move this if you’d rather it was in a different thread.

When running jME 3.1.0-beta3 with LWJGL3 (gradle artifact: ‘org.jmonkeyengine:jme3-lwjgl3:3.1.0-beta3’), I get a crash when starting with all default settings, but only if the settings are NOT loaded from a file. When my application starts, it looks in the user’s home directory for its settings directory. If it does not find it, it creates the default jME settings like so:

private static AppSettings defaultSettings(){
     AppSettings settings = new AppSettings(true);
     try {
	settings.save(System.out);
     } catch (IOException e) {
	// TODO Auto-generated catch block
	e.printStackTrace();
     }
		
     settings.putString("uistyle", "glass");
		
     return settings;
}

… and then it displays the jME settings window:

if(!Files.exists(settingsFile)){
   settings = defaultSettings();
   app.setShowSettings(true);
   ... save settings and here and continue with startup
}

Here are the settings that are dumped to System.out when only default settings are used (only clicked ‘Continue’ on the jME settings window)

#jME3 AppSettings

Here are the settings that are loaded from the file:

#jME3 AppSettings

Renderer(string)=LWJGL-OpenGL2
Width(int)=640
DisableJoysticks(bool)=true

Height(int)=480

StencilBits(int)=0
VSync(bool)=false
FrameRate(int)=-1
MinHeight(int)=0
MinWidth(int)=0
SwapBuffers(bool)=true
uistyle(string)=glass

Both sets of settings are identical with the exception of the uistyle line, which is only because the uistyle is added after the newly created default settings are dumped to System.out. In short: both sets of settings are identical. However, if my application starts with the settings that are created on the fly (not loaded from file), my application crashes with the following:

(java:9812): Gtk-WARNING **: Unable to locate theme engine in module_path: "oxygen-gtk",

This only happens with LWJGL3 - if I run against LWJGL2 it all starts up fine whether the settings are freshly created or loaded from file.

EDIT: started a new thread for this at LWJGL3 startup crash
