Description Jesse Glick 2006-10-17 05:19:49 UTC

Dev build, JDK 5. I have been seeing some weird behavior in a custom submenu
using DynamicMenuContent. It dynamically computes some information whenever
gMP() is called and adjusts its display accordingly. But the information is
stale when the menu is first posted; it is correct after the menu is posted for
a second time. Inserting debug printlns, I can see that gMP is not called when
the menu is posted; it is called after the menu is closed. Obviously that is too
late to update the menu's appearance. Am I missing something?

jesse, not sure I understand the issue here.. I put a thread dump in the
GroupMenu class and the menu creation/update method seems to get called whenever
the File menu is clicked. The content of the submenu seems fine to me as well..

Mandriva Linux+KDE, jdk1.5_06
Macosx 10.4 + jdk 1.5

Well today it works fine for me... AFAIK using the exact same NB & JDK. Who knows.
