[Bug 604631] Re: Heavyweight popups cause SecurityExceptions in applets

 

I am unable to install the openjdk-7 packages from the given repository
because of dependency problems between openjdk-7-jre and openjdk-7-jre-
headless. Each time I try to install one of them (or both
simultaneously) it tells me the other one is not installable. I am using
Ubuntu 10.04 64 bits. Is there a bug in the dependencies or am I missing
something ? When I try to install icedtea-7-plugin the same problem
appears.

You received this bug notification because you are a member of OpenJDK,
which is subscribed to openjdk-6 in ubuntu.

Status in “openjdk-6” package in Ubuntu: New

Bug description:
When a sandboxed applet opens a popup menu, a security exception is thrown for the "setAlwaysonTop" call in the HeavyWeightWindow inner-class of javax.swing.Popup.

This bug was fixed by Sun since 6u10 (see http://bugs.sun.com/view_bug.do?bug_id=6675802) with a try/catch block ignoring the securityexception but is stil present in the openjdk on Ubuntu 10.04, preventing the popup menu to show.
