Description mgoe 2009-05-26 12:46:41 UTC
During the start of an application based on the Netbeans platform sometimes the following assertion is thrown:

java.lang.AssertionError: Should be called from AWT thread.
	at org.openide.windows.IOContainer.log(IOContainer.java:346)
	at org.openide.windows.IOContainer.setTitle(IOContainer.java:186)
[catch] at org.netbeans.core.output2.Controller$CoalescedNameUpdater.run(Controller.java:323)
	at java.awt.event.InvocationEvent.dispatch(Unknown Source)

	at java.awt.EventDispatchThread.pumpEvents(Unknown Source)
	at java.awt.EventDispatchThread.pumpEvents(Unknown Source)
	at java.awt.EventDispatchThread.run(Unknown Source)

I think the reason for this issue is that netbeans pushes a new EventQueue during startup which does not work. Please 
see the discussion for bug 90590.
