Hi Alexander,
I tried it with Ubuntu 14.04.3, and it started indeed
from dash or a command line as a gray rectangle. Once I added
isSupported() for every Action and separately for the Taskbar,
it reported, just like jdk9b91, that only OPEN was supported
and nothing else.
Is it OK?
dconf editor in com/canonical/unity/launcher reports
firefox as, I presume, a default browser, but I don't see
BROWSE supported.
Thanks,
-yan

Hi Alexander,
resending the same webrev under the new ID

The approach is pretty the same as it was in Desktop before:
Check feature with isSupported() call.

For testing it on Ubuntu you should create a .desktop file e.g.:
~/.local/share/applications/SomeApp.desktop
[Desktop Entry]
Name=SomeApp
Path=/path/to/your/directory/with/Snip
Exec=/path/to/jdk9/java -Djava.desktop.appName=SomeApp.desktop -jar
Snip.jar
#or Exec=/path/to/jdk9/java -Djava.desktop.appName=SomeApp.desktop Snip
Terminal=false
Type=Application
After that you can run it from dash with specified name.

Hello
please review the fix
http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~azvegint/jdk/9/8048731/
for
https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8048731
This fix provides public support Mac OS X
features(com.apple.{eawt,eio}), adds support for various desktop
features such as progress indication, dock overlays, dock menus, etc.
This is done by extending java.awt.Desktop and adding
java.awt.Taskbar classes
Could you provide some code snippets which illustrate how the
introduced API should be used?
Thanks,
Alexandr.
Linux support is limited by Unity, however this is not the only
limitation :) An app should be run via
AppName.desktop file [0] with specified system property
-Djava.desktop.appName=AppName.desktop
