FULL PRODUCT VERSION :
java version "1.4.2_01"
Java(TM) 2 Runtime Environment, Standard Edition (build 1.4.2_01-b06)
Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 1.4.2_01-b06, mixed mode)

ADDITIONAL OS VERSION INFORMATION :
Linux 2.4.20-gentoo-r6

EXTRA RELEVANT SYSTEM CONFIGURATION :
Console only - X has been turned off.

A DESCRIPTION OF THE PROBLEM :
The server is running Java in headless mode, ie,  -Djava.awt.headless=true

Using a JPanel in our image conversion tool attempts to use the GTK look and feel.  Pango then attempts to call sun.java2d.HeadlessGraphicsEnvironment.getDefaultScreenDevice(...), which throws a Headless exception.

This should not be the case since the headless=true option was on the command line.

STEPS TO FOLLOW TO REPRODUCE THE PROBLEM :
Get a linux server.

Compile the test  case below.

%java -Djava.awt.headless=true -Dswing.defaultlaf=com.sun.java.swing.plaf.gtk.GTKLookAndFeel Test

I have a properties file which stipulates that the GTK look and feel should be used for all java apps, and this is why the original command would not work for me.


EXPECTED VERSUS ACTUAL BEHAVIOR :
EXPECTED -
For the application to terminate normally.
ACTUAL -
ExceptionInInitializerError is thrown.

See the below stack trace.
