Hi -

I tried to send the following message to the e-mail address suggested by =
the JFC "Swing" documentation and it was bounced back to me. Since it's =
an applet security-related question I thought I'd forward it to this =
address. If anyone in Java Security can help I'd appreciate it. Or if =
you know where to forward it to the JFC "Swing" development team, that =
would be great.

Thanks,
Vicky Christensen

Subject: applet security exceptions and JTree

Hi -

I have tried to use the JTree + TreeNode classes within an applet (using =
appletviewer) and I get applet security exceptions. The tree is painted =
but doesn't handle expansion, selection, etc. The same code works O.K. =
within an application.

Is there a .hotjava property that can be set to allow an applet to use =
JTree/TreeNode without causing security exceptions? I think this may be =
related to use of the EventQueue class?

Thanks,
Vicky Christensen
