Hi,
The Java Tutorials [1] say this about the dash_array parameter of
BasicStroke():
The dash array defines the dash pattern. Alternating elements in the
array represent the dash length and the length of the space between
dashes in user coordinate units. Element 0 represents the first dash,
element 1 the first space, and so on.
However, in openjdk6 (and openjdk7 - I havent tested explicitly, just
looked at the code) it seems to be the other way around: element 0
represent the first space and element 1 the first dash (and so on). The
attached program, when run with openjdk6, produces a solid black border
around the button text instead of no border.
The attached patch tries to fix the problem by initializing the renderer
with dashOn = true so that the first element of the array produces a
dash. The second element then produces a space and so on.
Cheers,
Omair
