Is Swing believed to work with Kaffe? Believed not to work?
This program dies for me on Kaffe 1.0.b1/RH5.1/egcs:
> import java.text.*;
> import java.util.*;
> import java.io.*;
> import java.awt.*;
> import com.sun.java.swing.*;
>
> public class Swing extends JApplet
> {
> Swing()
> {
> }
> public static void main(String argv[])
> {
> new Swing();
> }
> }
>
The trace is:
> java.lang.NullPointerException
> at java/awt/Color.<init>(50)
> at java/awt/Defaults.<clinit>(60)
> at java/awt/Toolkit.<clinit>(45)
> at java/awt/Color.<clinit>(18)
> at java/awt/Component.getBackground(208)
> at com/sun/java/swing/JPanel.<init>(66)
> at com/sun/java/swing/JPanel.<init>(109)
> at com/sun/java/swing/JRootPane.createGlassPane(227)
