java.awt.Canvas is not painting immediately

Hi *

I run under 1.4.0 and Win2000 .

My AWT frame has a Canvas in the center. Rezising the
window will not cause painting the Canvas area. I see
that paint() of the Canvas is called but no visible
result.
It needs a mouse move over the Canvas area to refresh
the correct content.
It seems somehow related to buffering coming with 1.4 .
Any idea?

Thanks in advance

Can you post some code that demonstarates the problem?

I've tried to make it stand-alone.
It seems not to be related to the canvas.
A simple AWT frame is showing well under the jdk
but not from within my Eclipse environment (not
running under debug). Here the frame remains tranparent
until the mouse is moved.
I assume it has something to do with my Samba network
mounts.

package test;
import java.awt.Frame;
public class CanvasFrame extends Frame {
public CanvasFrame(String title) {
super(title);
setSize(300, 300);
}
public static void main(String[] args) {
CanvasFrame cf = new CanvasFrame("Demo");
cf.setVisible(true);
}
}

I don't see any canvas in your code, just a frame (AWT)

Ok, I just found the reason why.
It is caused by
