I can send you the full source code of the product if you want to see by yourself. Here at XMLmind, XXE is daily used on Linux boxes (SuSE) * with Gnome and KDE (which don't require -Dawt.toolkit=sun.awt.motif.MToolkit", but for which this option is harmless) * and with mwm (which works perfectly only when -Dawt.toolkit=sun.awt.motif.MToolkit" is specified) Moreover, exactly the same code works fine on Mac OS and on Windows. > I am running WindowMaker, not Gnome or KDE.
