I would _like_ to use JFileChooser... but the JList problem simply makes this useless indeed atm. (For testing, just try to open the last file in a directory with more than a few dozen files). --- Over the weekend, I finally tried to track down and isolate the scrolling bugs that make my test application (JImageViewer) unuseable with current classpath cvs due to excessive flickering. I strongly suspected JScrollPane and friends, but several hours of testing revealed that JScrollPane with JViewport and Scrollable finally work more or less as they should - at least for my testcases. (There remains a clipRect issue, but different versions of the JDK disagree on that one, too.) The flickering turned out to be due to JTree requesting useless revalidates (with wrong sizes). I have not submitted a bug report for that yet because using JTree in a JScrollPane is completely broken anyway, and we already have a bug for it. Bug 24145 is claimed to be invalid, but should be revisited. IMO, Fixing the Scrollable behaviour of JList and Jtree would make a big step towards real-world-application-compatibility of Free Swing. - Norman _______________________________________________ Classpath mailing list [email protected] http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/classpath
