Due to all the problems in getting this to work, and also because in the project that I was going to use I'm not saving any really personal information, I'm going to stick with PBKDF2WithHmacSHA512 for password hashing.

A connection, any connection, goes through actual hardware. So your speedtest is connecting to a computer somewhere. You client test app is connecting to a different computer somewhere. So something is throttling it. Best way is to test your app with another app that you control. You need two boxes. They can be local but you could also spin on a cloud box. Probably ideal on the cloud (internet connected.) If that test shows a speed limitation then it is your apps problem (with I doubt.) If not then it indicates that something at the other end is probably throttling it. Also possible that your service provider is throttling it. They are 'faking' the results with speedtest by explicitly looking for it. Or you might be hitting a data limit with your app that the document (or don't.)

I am not a super-expert with macros (in my C# programming I have never used it). I do not immediately see how I can write a macro so that I can write file names in their 'true' form, without any escaping of backslashes (or for that sake, spaces, different quotes and other other characters requiring quoting in a *nix file system context. If you can show me how a macro to achieve that might look like, I would be grateful.

And that is exactly what my code does. It creates the thread worker from the UI thread and starts it. It then exits that UI function, effectively releasing the UI thread. Meanwhile, worker is executing its Run method separately from the UI. After it finishes doing stuff, worker then creates and runs a UI thread that updates the UI. JavaFX may have a different method to call instead of runOnUiThread, but the logic is the same. JavaFX has to have an equivalent. Don't be confused by the code appearing to all be in the initial UI function. Each of those Run methods is a chunk of code that executes in a separate and distinct thread. One caveat -- when running on Android, I have found that this doesn't always work to release the UI when it is done from within view creation / fragment startup. I don't know if JavaFX has the same issue. What I've shown works when launched from the UI once the screen is up and established; for example, from a menu item click handler. Be wary of strong drink.

Hi, I stumbled upon this thread and I like what I see here, and it is something I could use in some of my projects, which is to use JNI without having to add jvm.dll location into Environment Variables. But two minor problem, I get lost in all of that code to change it for my use case :), and also, on client machines I'm not making them install Java, but it comes in the app files with a license agreement, I'm using Eclipse Adoptium (...\MyApp\ThirdParty\Eclipse Adoptium\jre-17.0.7.7-hotspot). If it isn't much to ask, could you change the above code so that it will work in this scenario: Before creating the JVM, I'm running some other functions, and one of them returns the location for the app folder (ex: D:\Program Files\MyApp). Inside that folder are the apps data, and a folder Data, inside it a folder Java, and inside that all the java class files (...\MyApp\Data\Java\JavaMethods.class). So because I know the location of the app, I can give the location for jvm.dll by using the variable std::string location which would have D:\Program Files\MyApp, then to that I can append \ThirdParty\Eclipse Adoptium\jre-17.0.7.7-hotspot\bin\server for the location of jvm.dll. To be more precise, what I need to add before location.insert(0, "-Djava.class.path=");, to load the jvm.dll knowing it's location by combining like I said, the value from function parameter which would be set before calling the function and would have as an example D:\Program Files\MyApp with \ThirdParty\Eclipse Adoptium\jre-17.0.7.7-hotspot\bin\server. Here is an example how my app is using JNI extracted to a new project: #include #include #include #include #include JavaVM* jvm = nullptr; std::string createVM(std::string location) { //Here what I need to add to load the dll from location + ThirdParty\Eclipse Adoptium\jre-17.0.7.7-hotspot\bin\server location.insert(0, "-Djava.class.path="); location.append("Data\\Java"); JavaVMInitArgs vm_args; JavaVMOption* options = new JavaVMOption[1]; options[0].optionString = &location[0]; vm_args.version = JNI_VERSION_10; vm_args.nOptions = 1; vm_args.options = options; vm_args.ignoreUnrecognized = false; JNIEnv* env = nullptr; jint rc = JNI_OK; if (jvm == nullptr) { rc = JNI_CreateJavaVM(&jvm, (void**)&env, &vm_args); } else { rc = jvm->AttachCurrentThread((void**)&env, NULL); } delete[] options; if (rc

Adding u8 worked, thanks. As for CMD it was used only as a testing display, I don't need it in the actual app, and for testing I ended up writing to a file to see if it is working. And where I actually used it, it did worked.

Why are you not using the registry API directly rather than going through (antiquated) system() calls?
