Hello,

There is a problem with fvwm2 displaying Java 1.3.1_02 Swing JFrame
windows
which are popped up from other JFrame windows. What fvwm2 often does with
these is it resizes them so that they are so small on the screen that the
user can hardly see them. Even when the user calls setSize(x, y) and
pack()
on the created JFrame fvwm2 often still does the resizing leading to 16x16
windows or so. This happens roughly 60% of the time. This also happens
under the gnome window manager but never happens under window maker.
The code was compiled using Sun's JDK for Linux and other users
experienced the same problem with their own code.

The other Java problem which has to do with window management is that
when setVisible(true) is called on the window often it appears as an
fvwm2 icon, which is not what is supposed to happen. When
setVisible(false) is called on a JDK JFrame the window is
supposed to disappear and when setVisible(true) is called
on that window later it is supposed to appear deiconified.

Thanks,

Neil
