Jwindow behaves differently in jdk1.5
Hi,
I created a splash screen using jwindow. In the earlier versions of jdk the splash screen (Jwindow component) can be moved back and i was able to switch to other applications. But when i used jdk 1.5 the Jwindow stays on top and even if i switch to other applications it remains on top. how can i resolve this ? Is there any change in the behavior of the JWindow in jdk 1.5. This is urgent can any one help?
Regards,
Jonny

this works fine in 1.5.0_05
can alt-tab anywhere
class Testing
{
public static void main(String[] args)
{
javax.swing.JWindow window = new javax.swing.JWindow();
window.getContentPane().add(new javax.swing.JLabel("Hello World"));
window.setLocation(400,300);
window.setSize(200,200);
window.setVisible(true);
}
}
Hi,
Thanks a lot for your valuable suggestion
I tried some different versions and found that this problem occurs in jdk 1.5.0_03. Even in jdk 1.5.0_04 and also in lower versions like jdk1.3 and jdk 1.4_0*, i don't face this issue. So is it a bug in jdk 1.5.0_ _03 ? If so can any one point me the bug id for this issue.
Regards,
Jonny.

> window.setAlwaysOnTop(false);hi,Thanks .....but this way it won't work in jdk1.5.0_03 and still the same issue occurs in this version. I have tried this already.....Can any one help me in this regard...Regards,Jonny.
if having the app show up in the task bar is not a problem, you could use a
JFrame, then setUndecorated(true); so it will look like a JWindow.
Otherwise, this is just a stab in the dark, but worth a try
(uses a JFrame parent, but doesn't show in the task bar)
import javax.swing.*;
class Testing
{
public static void main(String[] args)
{
JWindow window = new JWindow(new JFrame(){
public boolean isShowing(){return true;}});
window.getContentPane().add(new javax.swing.JLabel("Hello World"));
window.setLocation(400,300);
window.setSize(200,200);
window.setVisible(true);
}
}
Still no change in the behaviour even with the following code
import javax.swing.*;
class Testing
{
public static void main(String[] args)
{
JWindow window = new JWindow(new JFrame(){
public boolean isShowing(){return true;}});
window.getContentPane().add(new javax.swing.JLabel("Hello World"));
window.setLocation(400,300);
window.setSize(200,200);
window.setVisible(true);
}
}
