A DESCRIPTION OF THE PROBLEM :
I have added a JList to a JMenuBar (as a Menu item) in my application.
Till JDK version 1.4.2_05 everything seems to be fine. As soon as we have
moved to JDK version 1.5.0, the ListSelectionEvent.getValueIsAdjusting() method
is always returning true. No matter what you do. Even though I am just clicking
on one of the item in JList.

I have compiled and ran the sample code with both JDK1.4.2_05 and JDK1.5.0.
The results are identified in the Expected and Actual Result areas.

STEPS TO FOLLOW TO REPRODUCE THE PROBLEM :
Compile and run the sample code provided with this report.
Once the frame is launched open up the menu called "Menu 1" and click on any
item from the scrollable panel list.

EXPECTED VERSUS ACTUAL BEHAVIOR :
EXPECTED -
The label in the previous release 1.4.2_05 returns the following texts:

ListSelectionEvent.getValueIsAdjusting() -> Returns true
ListSelectionEvent.getValueIsAdjusting() -> Returns false

The order is always the same. I believe the first true is for deselecting the
item and the second is for the new selection.
ACTUAL -
Now with JDK1.5.0 the results are the following:

ListSelectionEvent.getValueIsAdjusting() -> Returns true

In JDK1.5.0 always returns true.

ERROR MESSAGES/STACK TRACES THAT OCCUR :
No error messages.

REPRODUCIBILITY :
This bug can be reproduced always.
