[java-dev] Re: Running a Jar executable

Hi Adam & Benjamin,

If the Swing stuff is to run in the same JVM as mxj, on OS X, then it 
has to be invokeLater() every time, due to bad cocoa-carbon mojo.

So, Benjamin, if your original code doesn't do that, you'll either need 
to use Runtime.exec() or change it.
