Problem with the Java Access Bridge and the screenreader JAWS

[Markus Lemcke]

Hello,

I have to make a java software accessible.
I found following instruction to setup the java access bridge:
http://docs.oracle.com/javase/accessbridge/2.0.2/setup.htm#installing-jab-32-bit
http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/documentation/setup-139055.html
http://docs.oracle.com/cd/B28359_01/install.111/b32006/jbridge.htm

This one works:
https://www.ssbbartgroup.com/blog/2...ow-comes-bundled-with-the-java-access-bridge/

on windows 7 the screenreader NVDA reads my testsoftware devloped with swing components and the screenreader Jaws
doesn't read it! I don't know why?

on vmware windows xp with JRE 6.x I don't know how to setup the java access bridge.
No screenreader can read my software!

can you help me please.
I need it for a customer.

Greetings

Markus Lemcke

Rather than this general Java programming group
I would suggest other more specialized forums.

My guess is Java has been getting faster at screen writing by going at
the hardware at a lower and lower and more platform specific way.

There may be some system properties to ask it to back off. You might
try installing a more vanilla system video driver.

Another thing to try -- Ensure directx is up to date everywhere.

These are all just longshots.
