JDK-4390163 - Custom Composite implementations don't work on the screen
Description
An application which used to work fine with 1.3.1 on Solaris and Linux
no longer works when moving to 1.4.2. The error message is:

Exception in thread "AWT-EventQueue-0" java.lang.InternalError: not implemented yet

This is a bit silly given the fact that it used to work earlier.
"No longer implemented" would be more suitable.
Hence we have a regression that should be fixed in all releases
1.4.2 and higher.

WORK AROUND providing another workaround where the customer could achieve a XOR behaviour. class c_composite_panel Method: public void paint(Graphics ds_g) { Replace ds_g2d.setComposite(this.ds_ct); with ds_g2d.setComposite(AlphaComposite.Xor); I have compiled and run the testcase and it seems to achieve customer's requirement. Note that AlphaComposite.Xor was introduced in 1.4

WORK AROUND Using a custom composite interface from 1.4.2 generates exceptions when trying to render directly to the screen. However, the same code will render successfully to a BufferedImage. As this is a more popular method of rendering anyways, presently there is no set time frame by which this will be fixed.

EVALUATION As I can see, X11RasterData is moved from sun.awt to sun.java2d.x11 package, but getRaster() still throws InternalError. So I'm dispatching this change request to Java2D team.

WORK AROUND Use 1.3.1. This can no longer be recommended since 1.3.1 is EOSL at least for Linux and also for Solaris 9 and 10.
