I have a GUI application which make extensive use of the Swing library and works fine under jdk1.1.x and Swing 1.1.1 (from Sun). However, if i tried to compile and run the same java file with jdk1.2-pre2 from blackdown, non of the images, or textfiled, or whatever shows up. All i can see is a gray area appearing on the screen. Any hint would be much appreciated. thanks, Andy ---------------------------------------------------------------------- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
