Dialog doesn't come to focus(come to top of all window) when there is no frame
associated with it.

Steps on how to reproduce the bug.
1) Start the following program given in Dos Prompt and IMMEDIATELY select
another application say NotePad by alt-tab or clicking an application in task
Bar of Windows NT Operating system.
2) The given program pops up a dialog every 4 sec so if step 1 is done
then for the FIRST time the dialog does not come into focus or in other words
on top of all windows in the operating system.
3) But if I don't select any application as in step 1 then the dialog comes on
top with focus.

I have requirement in which the dialog box is to be poped asynchronously and it
should come on TOP of all window.

For Some reason this code does not work under JDK1.4beta2 but only on the JDK
1.3.X JDKs. This may be a Regression bug.

//Test Case
import javax.swing.*;
import java.awt.event.*;

public class TestForFocus extends JFrame implements ActionListener
{
public TestForFocus()
{
//4 sec delay.
Timer timer = new Timer(4000,this);
timer.setRepeats(true);
timer.start();
}

public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent actionEvent)
{
JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(null,"Test for focus on this dialog");
}

public static void main(String arg[])
{
TestForFocus testForFocus = new TestForFocus();
}
}
