Hi Anthony,

I tried the scenario you suggested, but it doesn't work. And I found

the jtreg spec says:

' A "main" action is considered to be finished when the main method returns; if a test involves multiple threads, some synchronization may be necessary to ensure that the other threads finish their work before the thread running the main method returns. '

Then I tried to join TimerQueue in main, but it always blocks. So I

started a new process to wait instead.

I tested and found the "/" separated path works on windows, it is not a

problem :)

Hi Sean,

92 worker = Runtime.getRuntime().exec(** System.getProperty("java.home"**)+"/bin/java TestDispose workprocess");

This won't work on MS Windows because the path separator character is different there. Actually, I don't understand why you need this Runtime stuff in the first place. If test JVM doesn't terminate, the test will fail. So why not create a frame and a text field right in the main(), then call dispose() and return from main()? Since the timer thread will still be running, the test's JVM won't exit, and the test will fail by timeout eventually. Will this testing scenario work? -- best regards, Anthony On 03/23/12 10:49, Sean Chou wrote:

I modified the testcase according to Anthony Petrov's suggestion(http://mail.openjdk.java.net/pipermail/ awt-dev/2012-March/002389.html<http://mail.openjdk.java.net/pipermail/awt-dev/2012-March/002389.html> **) . The new webrev: http://cr.openjdk.java.net/**zhouyx/7155298/webrev.02/<http://cr.openjdk.java.net/zhouyx/7155298/webrev.02/> However, the timeout action in jtreg only checks the main method, but the timeout is caused by timer thread . So, I started an other process to run the testcase and the main testcase waitFor that process to stop. In order to kill the process started by the testcase, I added a ShutdownHook to the runtime of main testcase. And added /othervm action to testcase . It seems the testcase is a little over complex, is there any other method to make the testcase simpler ?

And even simpler, why not to put > getCaret().setVisible(false) right into JTextComponent.removeNotify()? well, the later is a question for Swing team. The former is reasonable fix (not the best one, but good enough). So, if everyone agree with this approach then I'm fine (hope this is the only problem we will have with invisible focused JTextXXX) Oleg. > > Either of these looks fine to me. > > Thanks, > Anton. > >
