Comment 3 Martin Krauskopf 2005-11-06 17:04:30 UTC

One of the most visible GTK problem (and 6.0 approaching beta). So far it seems
like regression in 6.0-ea - I haven't found any yet. JMenu.addSeparator() and/or
JPopupMenu.addSeparator() doesn't work (unrelated to NB).
However may be workarounded by replacing "addSeparator()" with "add(new
JSeparator())".

Also maybe there are some supposed differences between add(new JSeparator()) and
addSeparator() which I'm not aware of. If yes, please enlighten me. Otherwise
issue against JDK should be filed. Should be solved for NB 5.0, I believe.
Attaching working patch.

Filled JDK bug 6346746. But as it can be easily workaround (the attached patch),
leaving issue open.

Comment 6 Martin Krauskopf 2005-11-08 10:52:30 UTC

JDK bug was evaluated and will be delivered in Mustang. So I'm suggesting
WONTFIX. For those who can't live with it could temporarily workaround with the
attached patch as I did ;)

Thanks Martin for your work, I agree with your conclusion.
