Description Jiri Rechtacek 2006-11-17 12:50:56 UTC 
Initialization of SwingBrowser leads to deadlock, see attachment.
How to reproduce:
- use latest jdk1.6
- Start Netbeans NB6.0, dev build with JDK's option java.net.useSystemProxies=true
- open Options dialog => deadlock appears.
On my configuration 100% reproducible.

Comment 2 _ rkubacki 2006-11-20 15:50:46 UTC 
At least once I was to reproduce. Another attempt resulted in crashed JVM (open
swing browser, then open options window).
Comment 3 _ rkubacki 2006-11-22 14:50:15 UTC 
I filed bug against JDK - 6496491. It is not clear if we can fix it in NetBeans.
Successfully reproduced on my Ultra-20 w/ FC4 64-bit and Petr Nejedly's machine.
Comment 4 _ rkubacki 2006-12-08 20:36:00 UTC 
two ways how to avoid this:

1.) Use
ORBit2 >= 2.14.2
gnome-vfs >= 2.16.1
libraries.

2.) Invoke java.net API on the same thread as Desktop API
Comment 5 _ rkubacki 2006-12-11 15:18:59 UTC 
the third one: disable use of java.awt.Desktop on Linux/Solaris if the property
is set.

new revision: 1.9; previous revision: 1.8

Too agressive for those who have recent GNOME libs and does not cover the case
if you edit this preference in jre/lib/net.properties. I'll track the bug in JDK
and reenable this for JDK where it gets fixed.
