Resolution: fixed
Status: newclosed

I found a solution to this problem while working on #199 (using the debug assertions inside AWT). It turned out that for NT-based systems Java wants to load RICHED20.DLL (which is an implementation of Rich Text 2.0) while Odin only provides RICHED32.DLL (which is a 32-bit wrapper for Rich Text 1.0 from Win16 AFAIK).

After tweaking the Java code in r411, RICHED32.DLL is now always loaded on OS/2. This fixes the original issue.

Note that there is also a small fix in Odin itself (r 22060) that fixes some more debug assertions (related to RICHED32 too).
