Attached is a regression test to <span class=&quot;nobr&quot;><a href=&quot;http://bugs.sun.com/bugdatabase/view_bug.do?bug_id=6373505&quot;>http://bugs.sun.com/bugdatabase/view_bug.do?bug_id=6373505<sup><img class=&quot;rendericon&quot; src=&quot;/jira/images/icons/linkext7.gif&quot; height=&quot;7&quot; width=&quot;7&quot; align=&quot;absmiddle&quot; alt=&quot;&quot; border=&quot;0&quot;/></sup></a></span> &#8211;
it's very short.
On my system toolkit reports screen resolution == 72 while default configuration of default screen device gets 85. Looks like the former one is hardcoded, isn't it?
The same test also fails on Apple JDK 6.

Testcase moved to java/awt/GraphicsConfiguration/NormalizingTransformTest/NormalizingTransformTest.java

EVALUATION The test verifies that the result of Toolkit.getScreenResolution() is consistent with GraphicsConfiguration.getNormalizingTransform(). The actual implementation of Toolkit.getScreenResolution() (see src/macosx/classes/sun/awt/CGraphicsDevice.java) is public int getScreenResolution() { // TODO: report non-72 value when HiDPI is turned on return 72; } The actual implementation of GraphicsConfiguration.getNormalizingTransform() (see src/macosx/native/sun/awt/CGraphicsDevice.m) is JNIEXPORT jdouble JNICALL Java_sun_awt_CGraphicsDevice_nativeGetXResolution (JNIEnv *env, jclass class, jint displayID) { // TODO: this is the physically correct answer, but we probably want // to use NSScreen API instead... CGSize size = CGDisplayScreenSize(displayID); CGRect rect = CGDisplayBounds(displayID); // 1 inch == 25.4 mm jfloat inches = size.width / 25.4f; jfloat dpi = rect.size.width / inches; return dpi; } Looks like it's wrong that Toolkit.getScreenResolution() returns hardcoded value and its implementation should fetch the appropriate value from the native code like we do on other platforms.
