N/A

Not reproducible with JDK7.0-b16 on linux-amd64 with GNOME 2.8. Need more information about the environment where this bug can be reproduced.

The sample application used to reproduce this issue is as follows:

import java.awt.*;

public class frame {
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        Frame f = new Frame("My Frame");
        f.setBounds(50, 50, 200, 100);
        f.setVisible(true);
    }
}

After a long discussion, it has occured the problem is with some incompatibility between openmotif and lesstif. Their 32bit code is very close to each other, while in 64bits some structures (like PropMwmHints) has different sizes, which causes so strange problems.

It is possible to not include MwmUtils.h header altogether. Motif will be phased out in jdk7 and is not supported in openjdk anyway; XAWT-related code depends on presumed structure fields size  elsewhere. Actually if one does create a native application setting for instance these hints via XChangeProperty, resulting hints will be different for Motif/Openmotif and Lesstif sets of headers.
I propose explicit declaration of the structure in the only place it is used in XAWT.

Actually PropMwmHints get used in 2 places:
openjdk/j2se/src/solaris/native/sun/awt/splashscreen/splashscreen_sys.c
openjdk/j2se/src/solaris/classes/sun/awt/X11/generator/WrapperGenerator.java

In splashscreen_sys.c the struct already is defined explicitly, and thus MwmUtil.h isn't needed and the lesstif <-> motif differences in it aren't a problem.

And yes, the other user is java code, well actually C-code generated by that java file, thats also why a grep won't find the use, it took me quite some time to track this one down.

I have a patch for openjdk/j2se/src/solaris/classes/sun/awt/X11/generator/WrapperGenerator.java

Which modifies the java code so that the generated C-code explicitly declarates PropMwmHints, in the same way this is already done in:
openjdk/j2se/src/solaris/native/sun/awt/splashscreen/splashscreen_sys.c

Since I cannot find a way to attach files in this bug tracker (is it me?), here is a link to the patch:
http://people.atrpms.net/~hdegoede/openjdk-lesstif-64.patch

I've verified that this patches fixes the reported issue with the latest icedtea build against lesstif on x86_64.

Ugh, buggy bugtracker, I'm not mpowerplayer, I'm Hans de Goede <j.w.r.degoede@hhs.nl> and I logged in as such ??
