Great. I just wanted to say that I experience the same behavior as you. I
haven't tried JDK1.1.3, only 1.1.6. I'm using glibc and KDE 1.0. I
remember someone mention this as a KDE problem.
A few additions:
* I checked the KDE-buglist and saw a few bugs like this one (see
http://buglist.kde.org)
* setResizable(boolean) is a call to FramePeer.setResizable(boolean)
* The bug only appears when the boolean argument is false
* ICQ for Java is affected
I would be great to know if there are other Windowmanagers that have
this thing as well. Use Kurts code below to test:
- ---------- cut here -----------
import java.awt.Frame;
class JDK116Bug {
public static void main( String argv[] ) {
Frame a = new Frame();
a.setSize( 50, 50 );
a.show();
Frame b = new Frame();
b.setSize( 50, 50 );
b.setResizable( false ); // this line causes trouble!
b.show();
}
}
