Build : 'O'
OS : 95 (GDI & DX6, NT[SP3] ok, Solaris n/applicable)
app : SwingSet /usr/local/java/jdk1.2


Get an NPE upon initiating 'Windows Look and feel' however asof 'O' it is inconsistent and having little difficulties but does produce NPE.

Scenario best to repo the bug:
  1. launch SwingSet (DO NOT CLICK ON ANY OTHER ITEMS ON THE DESKTOP)
  2. with SwingSet up *never having lost focus* goto Options->Windows Look/Feel

OR
  1. run few applets.
  2. launch SwingSet.
  3. execute Options->Windows Look/Feel

  - At this point, you should get an NPE. It's more like 80% of the time.
Caveat to this bug:
