Swing / AWT / SWT / JFace: Z-Order problem with JFrame

  • feimada / 300 / Mon, 04 May 2009 03:33:00 GMT / Comments (0)

  • There is an application, which acts as a GUI-server.

    A client can connect to this server and ask

    the server to produce and show a JFrame with

    its content. But the problem is that the JFrame does not

    always show in front of the other windows.

    The client can be written in any programming language

    and access the server. The window

    appears randomly once in front of all windows and

    once not in front. I've tried out all different

    sorts of combinations of the methods setVisible,

    show and toFront. It didn't help at all.

    The operating system used is mostly Windows.

    The other window can be a DOS-Commandline window

    or the explorer or something else and the GUI-server

    displays the JFrame as he likes wether on top or not.

    Please help and tell me how I can make the JFrame

    show always on top of all other windows.
