Hi Sergey and Oleg,

Please review a fix for http://bugs.sun.com/view_bug.do?bug_id=7162144 at:

http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~anthony/7u6-16-missingAWTThread-7162144.0/

Notes:

  1. To prevent a hang, invokeAndWait() will throw InterruptedException when the EDT is interrupted. NetBeans team confirms that this solution helps resolve their issue.

  2. There's no easy way to test it, so there's not a regression test. However, the bug contains a link to a huge test case that I used to verify this fix.

  3. We're fixing this in 7u6 first, because we're currently unable to test it properly with JDK 8 due to broken headless mode (blocked by an open JVM bug).

-- best regards, Anthony
