I agree. I'm afraid the TCK has many hundreds of Swing tests. (javax_swing in JCK test tree). Not all require robotic interaction; they may be tests of the data structures or exceptions and suchlike in the Swing libraries. Therefore it is yet another area where Harmony will need quality libraries to meet the j2se spec.
Whilst it might be tempting to find a workaround, i can't see it being a worthwile solution. It'll just create more issues down the line I think. -gerry On 5/23/05, Geir Magnusson Jr. <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > > On May 23, 2005, at 5:33 PM, Bryce Leo wrote: > > > Any opinions on dumbing down the swing interface as to get a > > functional copy.
