Description Peter Zavadsky 2002-03-28 14:26:01 UTC 
There is necessary to write tests for window components (especially for
containers in windows/frames package), ensuring they are manipulated from AWT
thread only.
(See issues #21921, #21946).

The scenario how to write such test:
1) Subclass tested GUI component (e.g. SplitContainerImpl),
2) Override all its protected and public methods the way it asserts it is in AWT
thread, and then calls the superclass method.
3) Manage to replace the above class the default one
4) try some operation in IDE (start, switching workspaces, projects etc.)

Comment 3 Marian Mirilovic 2003-11-26 12:58:02 UTC 
Because Window System v1 will not be supported from now by our team, all old
winsys issues (now "core/window system v1" issues) are going to be closed as
WONTFIX. 

Changes in API which emerged both from UI spec 
and problems with adjusting to the older API are described in the document
http://core.netbeans.org/windowsystem/changes.html.
 It shows also recommends how the client code should be adjusted to the new
window system.

If you think this issue apply also to the new winsys then change the
subcomponent (to "core/window system") and REOPEN it.

issue doesn't apply to new window system - verified
