Yeah, we've hit this too. There's a really nice component (from Java World,
I think) that allows you to automatically pop up a "waiting" cursor is some
event is taking a while to dispatch that we use but won't work on Mac
because of this problem.

I haven't gotten around to filing a bug yet. Anyone know if one already
exists?

Hello!

We are currently working on supporting an ability to
run IntelliJ IDEA 3.0 under Mac OS X. We have found
the problem with JDK 1.4.1 rc 2 for Mac. The following
code raises ClassCastException:

Toolkit.getDefaultToolkit().getSystemEventQueue().push(new
MyEventQueue());

The problem is that the passed event queue is
downcasted to CEventQueue, although the passed event
queue is actually derived from java.awt.EventQueue.
We haven't found in push()'s javadoc any restrictions
concerning the actual class of the passed parameter.
It seems that the current Macs implementation does
not allow to run cross-platform programs which use
event queue in such a way.
