setLabel() method for MenuItems adds space in front of label

Name: rm29839 Date: 03/12/98


After creating a MenuItem, then later changing its label in the actionPerformed() method using the setLabel() method, the label
 shown in the GUI has an extra space mysteriously added to the front of it. Here's the source:

This is seen ONLY on win95 (not NT or Solaris)

import java.awt.*;
import java.awt.event.*;

class Test extends Frame implements ActionListener
{
Menu menuTest;
MenuItem menuTestToggle;

Test(String title)
{
setTitle(title);

addWindowListener(new WindowAdapter()
{
         public void windowClosing(WindowEvent event)
{
System.exit(0);
}
});

// Create menu bar
      MenuBar menuBar = new MenuBar();
setMenuBar(menuBar);

// Create "Test" menu
menuTest = new Menu("Test");
menuTest.addActionListener(this);
menuBar.add(menuTest);
menuTestToggle = new MenuItem("Start");
menuTest.add(menuTestToggle);
menuTestToggle.addActionListener(this);
}

   public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent event)
{
String menuItem = event.getActionCommand();

if (menuItem == "Start")
{
((MenuItem)event.getSource()).setLabel("Stop");
}
else if (menuItem == "Stop")
{
((MenuItem)event.getSource()).setLabel("Start");
}
}

public static void main(String args[])
{
Test wdw = new Test("Test");
wdw.pack();
wdw.show();
}
}
