#635 "Dead" AWT/Swing frame under Mac OS X

Yelagin Thu 11 Jun 2009

Under Mac OS X, AWT/Swing frames (for example the one created in "swing.fan" example file) do not react to any input (clicking, resizing, etc). Mouse pointer has a "waiting" icon when it's over the frame, the frame decorations are grey, and the process is shown as not responding in Activity Monitor. Although the frame is being correctly repainted.

Can you get a stack dump to see what might be happening?

I doubt that has anything to do with Fan per se (but you never know)

Excuse me, stack dump of what thread at what moment? There's no exceptions thrown, or anything. I would give some kind of calls trace if I knew how to get it.

On Windows if you do Ctrl+Break it dumps the current state of the threads to stdout.

I assume something like that is available for Mac OS X if you send the right signal. But I don't know how it works.
