New version (implementation of the App class) of SikuliX when it will be available

Asked by manohar

Hi RaiMan,

I am waiting for the new version of SikuliX version which contains a new implementation of the App class.

I have seen your reply in the below ticket
"https://answers.launchpad.net/sikuli/+question/695871\"

after that I could not get any info.

Please let us know if you have any plan to release or not.

PS: Background: I am trying to use in Ubuntu24.04 OS, Sikulix 2.0.5 & Java 17. With this i am facing App class issue.

SikuliX 2.0.5 has compatibility issues with Java 17 and Ubuntu 24.04, especially with the App class. Although a new implementation was mentioned in a previous Launchpad ticket, no updates or release dates have been shared since. For now, using Java 8 or 11 may help avoid the issue on https://stylo.pk/ until a new version is released.

Sorry, but due to private reasons, I have paused the development.
May be restarting later this year.

Short answer: there’s no confirmed release date yet. RaiMan has mentioned the new App class work, but it’s still in progress and not officially shipped. On Ubuntu 24.04 with Java 17, the App issues are a known pain point right now. Best move is to stick with a stable Java setup (many still use Java 11), watch the SikuliX repo/issues, or test dev builds when they drop. Until it’s officially released, there’s no guaranteed fix.

Can you help with this problem?
