<Swing Dev> [9] Fix for JDK-6567433 : JComponent.updateUI() may create StackOverflowError

[Ajit Ghaisas]

Hi,

 

Bug :

     https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-6567433

 

    Calling updateUI() on JList, JComboBox and JTableHeader can create StackOverflowErrors.
    For example -

    JList.updateUI() invokes updateUI() on its Cellrenderer via SwingUtilities.updateComponentTreeUI().
    If the cellrenderer is a parent of this JList the method recurses endless causing StackOverflowError.

 

 

Fix :

     Added a recursion guard to JComboBox, JList and JTableHeader classes.

     With this fix, UpdateUI() method in these classes does not result in recursion.

 

Webrev :

    Request you to review.

 

Regards,

Ajit
