Accessibility bug: setJMenuBar does not place the menubar into component hierarchy

XMLWordPrintable

        This problem surfaced with the upcoming JDS release which mandates that all applications must be accessible. The only supported Java application is the Java Media Player. It uses setJMenuBar to add the menubar to the main window's JFrame.

        There is a workaround, however, it requires that all Java Application using setJMenuBar must be re-written to be fully accessible.

        The problem occurs on JDS, Build 21, Linux (x86). Accessibility was tested through the Gnome Onscreen Keyboard application (GOK).

        Most likely, all other target platforms are impacted as well.
