I discovered my Java application to hang while zooming in on
a graphics repaint while drawing lines.

I experimented and determined it happens with
drawLine(x1,y1,x2,y2) when (x2-x1)*(y2-y1)>2^30 or so.

This happens for lines as small as drawLine(0,0,32900,32900).
That's significantly larger than the screen resolution,
but when I'm zooming in on a small part of my image, this
happens quite easily.

Included is an example program. It draws:
drawLine(0,0,rad,rad), with rad=32000 and each time a
"repaint" button is pressed, rad is increased by 100.
Pressing "repaint" 9 times will cause it to fail at rad=32900.

I used this program to test the limits. The error will occur
on any little program with a drawLine which exceeds this limit.

In the very least, the bug should be fixed so the program
doesn't hang - it could just draw nothing.

Thanks!
