Differences with Button.setBackground( Color ) jdk versions?

Posted by Richard Jones on December 13, 2000 at 12:24 AM

I have noticed using IBM's VAJ 2.0 with jdk 1.1.6 that setBackground( Color ) and setForeground( Color )don't work on a Button but with VAJ 3.5 and jdk 1.2 they do. Know why?

Minor point, obviously, but I'd be interested to know if it's a bug in jdk or vaj or just my work machine!
