No problem... I had this workaround from another related incident
(I'm normally not that fast).
There were a few add's without getContentPane. One of those
mistakes that will build without any warnings but throw exceptions
at runtime (still trying to figure out why they did that...)
I thought in Java 5 that an 'add' to a JFrame is automatically
directed to the content pane. Am I wrong?
No, you are right, but you shouldnt be relying on that for your
Mac targeting code for quite some time. Since Tiger didnt ship
with Java 5 as the default JRE it will be a while before it is worth
the support pain to assume that things like that work.
Most (or at least a large number of) users will be running 1.4.2
and wont see your components if you fail to go the getContentPane
route.
