** Description changed:
Binary package hint: unity
On launcher, all Java Swing applications are with wrong name. Their
tooltip shows the Java class name, with the dots changed by hiphens.
For example, Netbeans icon itself gets inactive after startup.
Then an icon with a '?' shows up indicating "java-lang-Thread" on mouseover.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
+
+ Treviño: this issue is java related and it's caused by the fact that the Java
apps doesn't correctly set the WM_CLASS X property on their windows. There was
a bug for it (including a patch):
http://bugs.sun.com/bugdatabase/view_bug.do?bug_id=6528430
+ The ubuntu java package should probably include it.
+
+ A workaround to fix it is to use this window matching agent:
https://github.com/jelmerk/window-matching-agent then you need to update the
application
+ .desktop file to change the Exec value including
-javaagent:agent.jar=<AppWMClass> and adding StartupWMClass=<AppWMClass>.
