Summary

Setting divider sizes < 0 in JSplitPane and BasicSplitPaneDivider in setDividerSize() should be ignored.

Problem

Setting the divider size to < 0 results in no divider being shown between the two components as should be done for JSplitPane components. This behavior is not specified and not intended or useful.

Solution

Update the implementation to ignore any attempt to set divider sizes < 0. Update the specification to document this new behavior.

Specification

class javax.swing.JSplitPane

   /**
          * Sets the size of the divider.
    +     * Divider sizes {@code newSize < 0}  are ignored.
          *
    public void setDividerSize(int newSize)

class javax.swing.plaf.basic.BasicSplitPaneDivider

 /**
          * Sets the size of the divider to {@code newSize}. That is
          * the width if the splitpane is {@code HORIZONTAL_SPLIT}, or
          * the height of {@code VERTICAL_SPLIT}.
    +     * Divider sizes {@code newSize < 0} are ignored.
          *
