JDK-4688783 - JPopupMenu hardcoded i JMenu
Description
Name: rmT116609			Date: 10/15/2002


DESCRIPTION OF THE PROBLEM :
I have extended the JMenu class and would like my JMenu to use an extended JPopupMenu too, but I cannot redefine the place where the JPopupMenu is created (private method ensurePopupMenuCreated)

I suggest to put the call of "new JPopupMenu()" in a protected method so that I can use my own JPopupMenu instead.
