license related exception

In our software, we didn't used to need to explicitly set the license file. I'm testing out updating the version of marvin to 16.4.25, and now I get this exception when running the code:

 

java.lang.ClassCastException: chemaxon.marvin.sketch.swing.LicensePanel cannot be cast to chemaxon.marvin.view.swing.ViewPanel

at chemaxon.marvin.beans.MViewPane.setEditable(MViewPane.java:906) ~[com.chemaxon-marvin-gui.jar:master-4992]

 

 

This exception goes away if I set the license before this point using LicenseManager.setLicense(marvinLicense);

Is this a bug on your part or are we now required to call setLicense in all software packages which use marvin?

 

thank you for your post. we are looking into this. 

Hello Amos,

thank you for your finding. Since Marvin Beans 6.1 setting the license file is mandatory so your solution is correct. Apart from that, the exception what you mentioned above is undesirable. We are going to fix it soon.

Ok, thanks!
