Anthony, I think I disagree with Applet returning true to isValidateRoot. If I am not mistaken, I think I saw some people placing an applet in their component hierarchy as if it was a normal component. Invalidation should propagate so that outer components can revalidate and thus have proper layout calculations. Thus I think the only AWT components that should return true are the ones with an outer parent (window class hierarchy).
For the window method, shouldn't it be marked as final? And what about the AWT ScrollPane? Shouldn't it return true as well? Hope this helps, -Christopher On Thu, Jul 23, 2009 at 1:57 PM, Anthony Petrov<anthony.pet...@sun.com> wrote: > Hello Swing and AWT teams, > > So here's the latest version of the fix: > > http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~anthony/7-23-invalidate-6852592.2/ > > The specification has been modified, some stuff has been moved around. > Currently the spec is being reviewed by the CCC at Sun, and therefore is > kind of frozen.
