FULL PRODUCT VERSION :
java version "1.5.0-beta2"
Java(TM) 2 Runtime Environment, Standard Edition (build 1.5.0-beta2-b51)
Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 1.5.0-beta2-b51, mixed mode, sharing)

ADDITIONAL OS VERSION INFORMATION :
Microsoft Windows XP [Version 5.1.2600]

A DESCRIPTION OF THE PROBLEM :
In javax.swing.JComponent

in

void _paintImmediately(int x, int y, int w, int h)

is this:

try {
try {
Graphics pcg = paintingComponent.getGraphics();
g = (pcg == null) ? null : pcg.create();
pcg.dispose();
} catch(NullPointerException e) {
g = null;
e.printStackTrace();
}

If pcg is null, pcg.dispose will still be disposed.
Thus the reason for unneccessary try/catch block


REPRODUCIBILITY :
This bug can be reproduced always.
