      Summary

      Mention of ThreadGroups is removed from the RepaintManager specification

      Problem

      javax.swing.RepaintManager mentions ThreadGroup which is left over from the per-applet separation. It needs to be removed from the javadoc.

      Solution

      Remove it from the javadoc.

      Specification

      class javax.swing.RepaintManager 
      
      
      -     * Return the RepaintManager for the calling thread given a Component.
      +     * Return the RepaintManager given a Component.
          public static RepaintManager currentManager(Component c);
      
           /**
      -     * Set the RepaintManager that should be used for the calling
      -     * thread. <b>aRepaintManager</b> will become the current RepaintManager
      -     * for the calling thread's thread group.
      +     * Set the RepaintManager.
            * @param aRepaintManager  the RepaintManager object to use
            */
           public static void setCurrentManager(RepaintManager aRepaintManager);
