I have it in my homedirectory as file but it dod not work then i tried to pass it as JVM propperty
and finaly i even tried to pass it globaly trough the jvm like this
-Dvaadin.charts.developer.license=THEKEYHERE
my least try was to pass it like this
System.setProperty("vaadin.charts.developer.license", "KEYHERE");
none of this workt with java 1.6 , 1.7 and 1.8 I have no idea what i am missing.
Thanks for your help.
(I had to censore some filepaths with ***** in the code but they are all correct)
Hello together, i finally found a solution which worked for me. I had my eclipse workspace locatet on a shared/network drive so i commited my project to SVN created a new workspace on my local "C:/" drive and pulled the project from the SVN in there. I tried again to compile the widgetset and it worked perfectly. I still dont know what exactly the problem was but i guess some issue with the workspace on the networkdrive.
Hi Jonas,
Thank you for sharing the solution with us :)
