Hello AWT team,
Please review the fix
http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~azvegint/jdk/9/7011513/webrev.00/
for
https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-7011513
Currently a Gtk file chooser dialog window can be obscured by its owner
window,
this happens because we do not specify a parent window for obvious
reason: our owner window in not an instance of GtkWindow.
However it can be workarounded by setting up a WM_TRANSIENT_FOR property
[1][2].
I tested this on Solaris 10/11, OEL 6, Ubuntu 13.04, all works fine for me.
