Sandro Martini commented on PIVOT-781:
--------------------------------------
Hi all, and sorry for the delay on this ... I can work on the fix, but it's not
so simple for me to test the right behaviour under Linux, so someone could do
some test if I put here a patch (before committing something maybe wrong) ?
In the meantime, today I hope to commit a test bxml file: pivot_781.bxml under
tests.
And if possible, commit here even a .launch eclise file, to simplify test
execution.

> Key: PIVOT-781
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PIVOT-781
> Project: Pivot
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: wtk
> Affects Versions: 2.0
> Environment: Ubuntu 11.04 (2.6.38-10-generic), java-6-sun-1.6.0.26
> Reporter: Tomas Stenlund
> Assignee: Sandro Martini
> Priority: Minor
> Fix For: 2.0.3
>
>
> When using --maximized=true when starting a desktop application with
> DesktopApplicationContext.main(class, args) under the environment described.
> It works under Windows 7.
> Chris Bartlet found out that there is a Java bug for this issue
> (setExtendedState in DesktopApplicationContext) and suggested a workaround
> (calling it twice, once before and once after if not already in that state)
> before Java 7 is established. It seems it will not be fixed for Java 6 by sun
> (oracle).

> ----8<----------8<-------------8<----------------8<------------8<--------------8<--------------8<-------------8<------------
> Java bug 6365898 - fixed in Java 7
> http://download.java.net/jdk7/changes/jdk7-b14.html
> This looks like it should be the right URL, but it is not bringing anything up
> http://bugs.sun.com/bugdatabase/view_bug.do?bug_id=6365898
> Google has it cached though
> http://www.google.com/search?q=site%3Abugs.sun.com+6365898
> If the workaround is as simple as it seems to be, then I think it
> would be worth including along with a reference to the bug and a TODO
> to remove it once Java 7 is more established, or if Pivot later
> requires Java 7.
