FULL PRODUCT VERSION :
java version "1.4.0"
Java(TM) 2 Runtime Environment, Standard Edition (build 1.4.0-b92)
Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 1.4.0-b92, mixed mode)

FULL OPERATING SYSTEM VERSION : W2000 SP2


A DESCRIPTION OF THE PROBLEM :
Scenario: In a busy JFrame/JDialog (i.e. where it takes a
while to repaint) setEnabled(false) is called to prevent
user input - and later enabled again.

On Windows only (does not appear on Solaris and Linux) the
screen is erased with the default background (i.e. user
looks at empty window) - then the double buffer is filled
and then copied (i.e. the user sees the content again). The
user looks at the empty screen for up to 2 seconds on busy
screens.

The behavior is independent from the selected look & feel.

I assume that this is a Windows Native Library Timing
issue, as everything is nice and smooth on Solaris and
Linux.
The issue might might be related to the bug with review id
144485.

REGRESSION.  Last worked in version 1.3.1

STEPS TO FOLLOW TO REPRODUCE THE PROBLEM :
1. Compile and run the example
2. Press on the button.
3. You see a brief flicker on Windows as the exaple is a
very simple screen.
4. If you want to see it more dramatically, use a Look and
Feel using colored backgrounds or create a window with lots
of work for the repaint().
5. Using repaint() alone does not show the empty window
(i.e. works correctly).

EXPECTED VERSUS ACTUAL BEHAVIOR :
No flickering (as on Linux & Solaris and with Java 1.3.1)
at all.

The empty window should NOT be painted in the first place.


This bug can be reproduced always.
