    Description

      FULL PRODUCT VERSION :
      java version "1.5.0_05"
      Java(TM) 2 Runtime Environment, Standard Edition (build 1.5.0_05-b05)
      Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 1.5.0_05-b05, mixed mode, sharing)

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

      A DESCRIPTION OF THE PROBLEM :
      The bug occurs when you deserialize a component. The tool tip associated with the component is lost.

      STEPS TO FOLLOW TO REPRODUCE THE PROBLEM :
      1.) javac ToolTipTest.java
      2.) java ToolTipTest


      EXPECTED VERSUS ACTUAL BEHAVIOR :
      EXPECTED -
      Hover over the buttons in the 3rd window. Tool tips should be displayed.
      ACTUAL -
        Tool tips are only displayed in the first window.

      With JRE 1.4.2 and JRE 1.3.0, Tool tips are displayed in the third window.


      REPRODUCIBILITY :
      This bug can be reproduced always.

      /*
       * This class demonstrates 2 bugs in JRE 5.0 update 5. The first bug occurs
       * when you Java serialize a component. The tool tip associated with the
       * component is lost. The second bug occurs when you deserialize a component.
       * The tool tip associated with the component is lost.
       *
       * To witness the behavior, run this class with no arguments. 3 windows will
       * pop up with descriptive title bar's. The original window will have a button
       * with a working tool tip. The middle window is a new window which has been
       * serialized. The tool tips don't work on this one. The third is the
       * reserialization of the second window. Tools tips don't work here either.
       *
       * I believe the first bug could be fixed by adding a
       * ToolTipManager.registerComponent call to the end of the
       * JComponent.writeObject method.
       *
       * I believe the second bug could be fixed by moving the call to
       * ToolTipManager->registerComponent, inside JComponent.readObject, after the
       * client properties have been read.

      CUSTOMER SUBMITTED WORKAROUND :
      String t = comp.getToolTipText();
      comp.setToolTipText(null);
      comp.setToolTipText(t);


      Release Regression From : 1.4.2_09
      The above release value was the last known release where this
      bug was known to work. Since then there has been a regression.
