<AWT Dev> RFR: 8144074: [PIT] Crash calling Toolkit.getScreenSize() on Windows.

[Phil Race]

No problems in that case, ie this code :-
import java.awt.*;

public class GW {


     public static void main(String s[]) {
         GraphicsEnvironment ge = 
GraphicsEnvironment.getLocalGraphicsEnvironment
();
         ge.getScreenDevices();
         java.awt.Toolkit.getDefaultToolkit().getScreenSize();

     }

}

Also I did basic checking that SwingSet still  comes up fine.
