UIManager spec tells the following:
* The class used for the default look and feel is chosen in the following
* manner:
* <li>If the system property <code>swing.defaultlaf</code> is
* {@code non-null}, use its value as the default look and feel class
* name.
* <li>If the {@link java.util.Properties} file
<code>swing.properties</code>
* exists and contains the key <code>swing.defaultlaf</code>,
* use its value as the default look and feel class name.
* <li>Otherwise use the cross platform look and feel.
So if you don't use the property file by default, you should be setting
swing.defaultlaf somewhere.
I wonder what piece of code is responsible for setting system properties
like this one
Thanks much
