Hi,

We're a bit in a quandary. We are writing a JDK 1.4 Java applet that
utilizes some Java2D capability. This applet will execute on a Solaris 8
box and displayed on a HPUX 10.2 box. (This is the way the Navy needs to
run it.)  Unfortunately, enabling any Java2D functionality causes the
applet to paint extremely slowly (it's unusable). I found the following
solution in Sun's bug database:

appletviewer -J-Dsun.java2d.pmoffscreen=false

This appears to solve the performance problem, when displaying remotely on
newer X servers
like WinaXe or Linux or Solaris X-Server, but unfortunately not on the HPUX
10.2 box.
(There are some black rectangles that pop up every so often even with the
newer servers though.)

We would very much like to use Java2D capability for our application. (We'd
like to use OpenMap components that utilize Java2D and features such as
transparency, thick lines, transformations, etc. in our own application.)
Is there any way to accomplish this with JDK 1.4.1? Will this issue be
resolved any time within the next two months?

Thanks,

Rob Ratcliff
