JOptionPane fails to render multiline text in the 'standard' dialogs. Testcase attached; tested with gcc-4.0-20050130 snapshot and current gui-branch-20040128 cvs.
(the location of the JButtons is sub-optimal, too.) /* MultilineJOptionPane.java * * demonstrates GCJ doesn't display multiple lines of text in a JOptionPane * * (C) 2005 FNH */ import java.awt.*; import javax.swing.*; public class MultilineJOptionPane { public static void main( String args[] ) { JFrame frame = new JFrame( "just a frame" ); frame.setSize(50,50); frame.show(); String s = "The first line of text, five to follow...\n" + "A second line of text,\n" + "and the third,\n" + "fourth,\n" + "and fifth line of text.
