Create a MenuItem and pass in "null"
MenuItem mi = new MenuItem(null);

add the menu item to a menu and then to a menubar
        Menu m = new Menu("File");
        MenuBar mb = new MenuBar();
        mb.add(m);
        m.add(mi);

add the menubar to the frame
        Frame f = new Frame();
        f.setMenuBar(m);

At that point, on NT it will cause an
application error to occur. The Solaris JVM
does not crash or even report an exception.


BTW, if you're wondering why anyone would pass in
a null, its because we are using a resource file,
and the operator may not define a string for a
menu item.
